A major complication of replacement therapy is the development of neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors), which occur in approximately 30% of patients with severe hemophilia A and about 3% of those with hemophilia B. The role of missense and nonsense mutations in inhibitor formation has been increasingly recognized. In hemophilia A, missense mutations within immunogenic domains may alter FVIII structure, eliciting immune responses. Nonsense mutations especially those located in the light chain are associated with higher inhibitor risk due to the production of truncated, non-functional proteins. In hemophilia B, missense mutations rarely result in inhibitor development, whereas nonsense mutations and large deletions carry a significantly higher risk. Molecular genotyping contributes to predicting inhibitor formation and supports individualized treatment planning.</p>","PeriodicalId":17546,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144959132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cangrelor, a rapid-acting intravenous P2Y12 inhibitor, is particularly effective in high-risk PCI scenarios, including acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or patients unable to take oral medications. The SMILE study evaluated real-world timing, indications, and outcomes of cangrelor use, along with transition to oral P2Y12 inhibitors, in high-risk patients undergoing PCI. A retrospective analysis of Mount Sinai PCI registry was conducted, examining consecutive patients receiving cangrelor from January 2018 to March 2024. Transition to oral P2Y12 inhibitors (ticagrelor, clopidogrel, or prasugrel) followed institutional protocols based on guidelines and expert consensus. The primary endpoint was in-hospital major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), including myocardial infarction, stroke, and all-cause death. Among 493 patients, 78.7% presented with ACS (29.6% STEMI; 14.8% cardiogenic shock) and 79.3% underwent complex PCI. Of these, 80.5% were subsequently transitioned to ticagrelor (N=397) and 19.5% to a thienopyridine (clopidogrel N=85, prasugrel N=11). MACCE incidence was 12.6%, while bleeding occurred in 4.3%. A lower risk of MACCE was associated with transition to ticagrelor (9.8% vs. 24.0%; adjusted OR 0.35, 95%CI 0.20-0.62, p < 0.001) and adherence to protocol for transition to oral P2Y12 inhibitors (10.9% vs. 19.4%; adjusted OR 0.51, 95%CI 0.28-0.94). Extended low-dose cangrelor infusion was well-tolerated in critically ill patients requiring prolonged parenteral antiplatelet therapy. Overall, the SMILE study demonstrated that adherence to standardized transition protocols enhances clinical outcomes in high-risk PCI patients receiving cangrelor, particularly when transitioned to ticagrelor.
