Abstract
<h4>Objectives</h4>To compare the net clinical benefit of oral anticoagulant (OAC) monotherapy to OAC plus single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and stable coronary artery disease (CAD) at 1- and 3-year after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).<h4>Background</h4>It has not been studied whether the net clinical benefit of the antithrombotic treatment options differs depending on the elapsed time from the index PCI.<h4>Methods</h4>Using the Korean nationwide claims database, we included AF patients who underwent PCI from 2009 to 2019 and constructed two cohorts: 1- and 3-year after PCI. In each cohort, the baseline characteristics of two groups were balanced using propensity score weighting. Ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, major bleeding, and composite clinical outcomes were analyzed.<h4>Results</h4>Among patients with 1-year after PCI, OAC monotherapy (<i>n</i> = 678), and OAC plus SAPT (<i>n</i> = 3,159) showed comparable results for all clinical outcomes. In patients with 3-year after PCI, OAC monotherapy (<i>n</i> = 1,038) and OAC plus SAPT (<i>n</i> = 2,128) showed comparable results for ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction, but OAC monotherapy was associated with a lower risk of composite clinical outcomes (HR 0.762, 95% CI 0.607-0.950), mainly driven by the reduction of major bleeding risk (HR 0.498, 95% CI 0.345-0.701).<h4>Conclusion</h4>Oral anticoagulant monotherapy may be a comparable choice for patients with AF and stable CAD compared to OAC plus SAPT. In patients with stable CAD more than 3-year after index PCI, OAC monotherapy would be a better choice, being associated with less major bleeding and a positive net clinical benefit.
