Abstract
Guidelines still recommend 12-month DAPT after acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This is possibly due to the insufficient power of most trials to detect hard ischemic endpoints, particularly in the subgroup of high ischemic-risk patients, such as those with ST-elevation ACS. Individual patient data meta-analyses play an important role in overcoming these limitations.
