Background:There is a paucity of data on the management and prognosis of cancer-associated venous thromboembolism (VTE), leading to uncertainty about optimal management strategies.Methods and Results:The COMMAND VTE Registry is a multicenter registry enrolling 3,027 consecutive acute symptomatic VTE patients in Japan between 2010 and 2014. We divided the entire cohort into 3 groups: active cancer (n=695, 23%), history of cancer (n=243, 8%), and no history of cancer (n=2089, 69%). The rate of anticoagulation discontinuation was higher in patients with active cancer (43.5%, 27.0%, and 27.0%, respectively, at 1 year, P<0.001). The cumulative 5-year incidences of recurrent VTE, major bleeding, and all-cause death were higher in patients with active cancer (recurrent VTE: 17.7%, 10.2%, and 8.6%, P<0.001; major bleeding: 26.6%, 8.8%, and 9.3%, P<0.001; all-cause death: 73.1%, 28.6%, 14.6%, P<0.001). Among the 4 groups classified according to active cancer status, the cumulative 1-year incidence of recurrent VTE was higher in the metastasis group (terminal stage group: 6.4%, metastasis group: 22.1%, under chemotherapy group: 10.8%, and other group: 5.8%, P<0.001).Conclusions:In a current real-world VTE registry, patients with active cancer had higher risk for VTE recurrence, bleeding, and death, with variations according to cancer status, than patients without active cancer. Anticoagulation therapy was frequently discontinued prematurely in patients with active cancer in discordance with current guideline recommendations.

Background: Cardiac calmodulinopathy, characterized by a life-threatening arrhythmia and sudden death in the young, is extremely rare and caused by genes encoding calmodulin, namely calmodulin 1 (CALM1), CALM2, and CALM3.Methods and Results: We screened 195 symptomatic children (age 0–12 years) who were suspected of inherited arrhythmias for 48 candidate genes, using a next-generation sequencer. Ten probands were identified as carrying variants in any of CALM1–3 (5%; median age 5 years), who were initially diagnosed with long QT syndrome (LQTS; n=5), catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT; n=3), and overlap syndrome (n=2). Two probands harbored a CALM1 variant and 8 probands harbored 6 CALM2 variants. There were 4 clinical phenotypes: (1) documented lethal arrhythmic events (LAEs): 4 carriers of N98S in CALM1 or CALM2; (2) suspected LAEs: CALM2 p.D96G and D132G carriers experienced syncope and transient cardiopulmonary arrest under emotional stimulation; (3) critical cardiac complication: CALM2 p.D96V and p.E141K carriers showed severe cardiac dysfunction with QTc prolongation; and (4) neurological and developmental disorders: 2 carriers of CALM2 p.E46K showed cardiac phenotypes of CPVT. Beta-blocker therapy was effective in all cases except cardiac dysfunction, especially in combination with flecainide (CPVT-like phenotype) and mexiletine (LQTS-like).Conclusions: Calmodulinopathy patients presented severe cardiac features, and their onset of LAEs was earlier in life, requiring diagnosis and treatment at the earliest age possible.

Background: Catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients on hemodialysis (HD) is reported to have a high risk of late recurrence (LR). However, the relationship between early recurrence (ER) within a 90-day blanking period after CA in AF patients and LR in HD patients remains unclear.Methods and Results: Of the 5,010 patients in the Kansai Plus Atrial Fibrillation Registry, 5,009 were included in the present study. Of these patients, 4,942 were not on HD (non-HD group) and 67 were on HD (HD group). HD was an independent risk factor for LR after the initial CA (adjusted hazard ratio 1.6; 95% confidence interval 1.1–2.2; P=0.01). In patients with ER, the rate of sinus rhythm maintenance at 3 years after the initial CA was significantly lower in the HD than non-HD group (11.4% vs. 35.4%, respectively; log-rank P=0.004). However, in patients without ER, there was no significant difference in the rate of sinus rhythm maintenance at 3 years between the HD and non-HD groups (67.7% vs. 74.5%, respectively; log-rank P=0.62).Conclusions: ER in HD patients was a strong risk factor for LR. However, even HD patients could expect a good outcome without ER after the initial CA.

Background:The effect of diabetes mellitus (DM) status on the long-term risk for heart failure (HF) in patients undergoing coronary revascularization has not been adequately evaluated.Methods and Results:In this study, 15,231 patients who underwent coronary revascularization in the CREDO-Kyoto Registry Cohort-2 were divided into 2 groups according to DM status (DM group: n=5,999; Non-DM group: n=9,232). The DM group was further divided into 2 groups according to insulin treatment (insulin-treated DM [ITDM]: n=1,353; non-insulin-treated DM [NITDM]: n=4,646). The primary outcome measure was HF hospitalization. The cumulative 5-year incidence of HF hospitalization was significantly higher in the DM than non-DM group (11.0% vs. 6.6%, respectively; log-rank P<0.0001), and in the ITDM than NITDM group (14.6% vs. 10.0%, respectively; log-rank P<0.0001). After adjusting for confounders, the increased risk of HF hospitalization with DM relative to non-DM remained significant (hazard ratio [HR] 1.47, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.30–1.67, P<0.0001), whereas the risk associated with ITDM relative to NITDM was not significant (HR 1.17, 95% CI 0.96–1.43, P=0.12).Conclusions:The adjusted long-term risk for HF hospitalization after coronary revascularization was significantly higher in DM than non-DM patients, regardless of revascularization strategy, but did not differ between ITDM and NITDM patients.

Background: Evidence is limited regarding long-term clinical outcomes after alcohol septal ablation (ASA) for patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy and its periprocedural predictive factors in Japan.Methods and Results: This retrospective observational study included 44 patients who underwent ASA between 1998 and 2022 in a single center. We evaluated the periprocedural change in variables and long-term clinical outcomes after the procedure. The primary outcome was a composite of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for heart failure. The secondary outcome was all-cause death. Using multivariable Poisson regression with robust error variance, we predicted underlying periprocedural factors related to primary outcome development. ASA decreased the median pressure gradient at the left ventricular outflow tract from 88 to 33 mmHg and reduced moderate or severe mitral regurgitation (MR), present in 53% of patients before ASA, to 16%. Over a median 6-year follow-up, the cumulative incidence of the primary outcome at 5 and 10 years was 16.5% and 25.6%, respectively. After multivariable analysis, moderate or severe MR after ASA was significantly associated with the primary outcome (relative risk 8.78; 95% confidence interval 1.34–57.3; P=0.024). All-cause mortality after ASA was 15.1% and 28.9% at 5 and 10 years, respectively.Conclusions: This study presents long-term clinical outcomes after ASA in Japan. Moderate or severe MR after ASA was significantly associated with the composite of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for heart failure.

Background: Dynamic chest radiography (DCR) produces sequential radiographs within a short examination time. It is also inexpensive and only uses a low dose of radiation. Because of the lack of reports of evaluating cardiac function using DCR in humans, we investigated its discriminative ability for left ventricular (LV) dysfunction in a study cohort.Methods and Results: We analyzed the DCR pixel values of 4 circular regions of interest (ROIs) in the hearts of 61 patients with cardiovascular disease and 10 healthy volunteers. We evaluated the relationship between changes in pixel value in the heart and the LV ejection fraction (LVEF) by echocardiography. We constructed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves to evaluate whether the percent change in pixel value (%∆pixel value) could be used to identify patients with reduced LVEF. A total of 21 patients had reduced LVEF (LVEF <50%), and 40 had preserved LVEF (LVEF ≥50%). The correlation between LVEF and %∆pixel value in each ROI was significant, and the area under the ROC curve of the %∆pixel values for identifying patients with reduced LVEF was satisfactory (0.808–0.827) in 3 ROIs where the entire circular area was within the cardiac shadow.Conclusions: LV dysfunction can be detected by changes in the pixel value on DCR.

Background:The Resolute Integrity coronary drug-eluting stent (DES), the next evolution of the Resolute DES, is designed with thinner stent struts and continuous sinusoidal technology to further enhance performance. This study evaluated the performance of the Resolute Integrity DES compared with the historical performance of Xience V.Methods and Results:We assessed the safety, efficacy, and deliverability of Resolute Integrity compared with the Xience DES, the prespecified historical control, in PROPEL, a large, real-world prospective, single-arm, open-label study. A total of 1,204 subjects were enrolled in PROPEL and treated with the Resolute Integrity DES at 76 sites in Japan. Lesion and procedural success rates were 100% and 99%, respectively. Patients were equally complex in the Resolute Integrity and Xience cohorts. At 1 year in the clinical-only cohort, the primary endpoint target lesion failure was 4.3% (34/800) in the Resolute Integrity cohort compared with 8.5% (97/1,142) in the Xience historical controls (P<0.001 for non-inferiority). Target vessel failure, major adverse cardiac events, target vessel myocardial infarction, and the composite cardiac death and target vessel myocardial infarction were all lower with Resolute Integrity compared with Xience, including in “high risk” patients.Conclusions:In the large, prospective, multicenter PROPEL trial, the performance of the Resolute Integrity DES was non-inferior to that of the benchmark Xience DES used as a historical comparator.

Background:Inter-facility transfer for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from referring facilities to PCI centers causes a significant delay in treatment of ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients undergoing primary PCI. However, little is known about the clinical outcomes of STEMI patients undergoing inter-facility transfer in Japan.Methods and Results:In the CREDO-Kyoto acute myocardial infarction (AMI) registry that enrolled 5,429 consecutive AMI patients in 26 centers in Japan, the current study population consisted of 3,820 STEMI patients who underwent primary PCI within 24 h of symptom onset. We compared long-term clinical outcomes between inter-facility transfer patients and those directly admitted to PCI centers. The primary outcome measure was a composite of all-cause death or heart failure (HF) hospitalization. There were 1,725 (45.2%) inter-facility transfer patients, and 2,095 patients (54.8%) with direct admission to PCI centers. The cumulative 5-year incidence of death/HF hospitalization was significantly higher in the inter-facility transfer patients than in those with direct admission (26.9% vs. 22.2%; log-rank P<0.001). After adjusting for potential confounders, the risk for death/HF hospitalization was significantly higher (adjusted hazard ratio: 1.22, 95% confidence interval: 1.07–1.40, P<0.001) in the inter-facility transfer patients than in those directly admitted.Conclusions:Inter-facility transfer was associated with significantly worse long-term clinical outcomes for patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI.

Background:In the setting of elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided PCI is associated with a reduction in the incidence of target vessel revascularization (TVR), but the impact of IVUS on long-term clinical outcome in the setting of emergency PCI for ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) is still unclear.Methods and Results:The subjects consisted of 3,028 STEMI patients who underwent primary PCI within 24 h of symptom onset in the CREDO-Kyoto acute myocardial infarction registry. Of these, 932 patients (31%) underwent IVUS-guided PCI. Compared with the angiography-guided PCI without IVUS, IVUS-guided PCI was associated with significantly lower incidences of TVR (primary outcome measure; 22% vs. 27%, log-rank P<0.001) and definite stent thrombosis (ST; 1.2% vs. 3.1%, log-rank P=0.003). The cumulative incidence of all-cause death was not significantly different between the 2 groups. After adjusting for confounders, however, there were no significant differences between the 2 groups in risk for TVR (adjusted HR, 1.14; 95% CI: 0.86–1.51, P=0.38) and definite ST (adjusted HR, 0.58; 95% CI: 0.19–1.72, P=0.33).Conclusions:IVUS-guided PCI was not associated with a lower risk for TVR or ST in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI.

Aim: We investigated the relationship between small dense low-density cholesterol (sdLDL-C) and risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients treated with high- or low-dose statin therapy.Methods: This was a prospective case-cohort study within the Randomized Evaluation of Aggressive or Moderate Lipid-Lowering Therapy with Pitavastatin in Coronary Artery Disease (REAL-CAD) study, a randomized trial of high- or low-dose (4 or 1 mg/d pitavastatin, respectively) statin therapy, in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Serum sdLDL-C was determined using an automated homogenous assay at baseline (randomization after a rule-in period, >1 month with 1 mg/d pitavastatin) and 6 months after randomization, in 497 MACE cases, and 1543 participants randomly selected from the REAL-CAD study population.Results: High-dose pitavastatin reduced sdLDL-C by 20% than low-dose pitavastatin (p for interaction <0.001). Among patients receiving low-dose pitavastatin, baseline sdLDL-C demonstrated higher MACE risk independent of LDL-C (hazard ratio [95% confidence interval], 4th versus 1st quartile, 1.67 [1.04–2.68]; p for trend=0.034). High-dose (versus low-dose) pitavastatin reduced MACE risk by 46% in patients in the highest baseline sdLDL-C quartile (>34.3 mg/dL; 0.54 [0.36–0.81]; p=0.003), but increased relative risk by 40% in patients with 1st quartile (≤ 19.5 mg/dL; 1.40 [0.94–2.09]; p=0.099) and did not alter risk in those in 2nd and 3rd quartiles (p for interaction=0.002).Conclusions: These findings associate sdLDL-C and cardiovascular risk, independent of LDL-C, in statin-treated CAD patients. Notably, high-dose statin therapy reduces this risk in those with the highest baseline sdLDL-C.

Background: The relationship between very low on-treatment low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level and cardiovascular event risk is still unclear in patients receiving the same doses of statins.Methods and Results: From the REAL-CAD study comparing high-dose (4 mg/day) with low-dose (1 mg/day) pitavastatin therapy in patients with stable coronary artery disease, 11,105 patients with acceptable statin adherence were divided into 3 groups according to the on-treatment LDL-C level at 6 months (<70 mg/dL, 70–100 mg/dL, and ≥100 mg/dL). The primary outcome measure was a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal ischemic stroke, or unstable angina requiring emergent admission. The adjusted risks of the LDL-C <70 mg/dL group relative to the LDL-C 70–100 mg/dL group (reference) was not significantly different for the primary outcome measure in both 1 mg/day and 4 mg/day strata (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.58–1.18, P=0.32, and HR 1.25, 95% CI 0.88–1.79, P=0.22). The adjusted risk of the LDL-C ≥100 mg/dL group relative to the reference group was not significant for the primary outcome measure in the 1 mg/day stratum (HR 0.82, 95% CI 0.60–1.11, P=0.21), whereas it was highly significant in the 4 mg/day stratum (HR 3.32, 95% CI 2.08–5.17, P<0.001).Conclusions: A very low on-treatment LDL-C level (<70 mg/dL) was not associated with lower cardiovascular event risk compared with moderately low on-treatment LDL-C level (70–100 mg/dL) in patients receiving the same doses of statins.

Background:The clinical significance of concomitant mitral regurgitation (MR) has not been well addressed in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS).Methods and Results:We analyzed 3,815 patients from a retrospective multicenter registry of severe AS in Japan (CURRENT AS registry). We compared the clinical outcomes between patients with moderate/severe MR and with none/mild MR according to the initial treatment strategy (initial aortic valve replacement [AVR] or conservative strategy). The primary outcome measure was a composite of aortic valve-related death or heart failure hospitalization. At baseline, moderate/severe MR was present in 227/1,197 (19%) patients with initial AVR strategy and in 536/2,618 (20%) patients with a conservative strategy. The crude cumulative 5-year incidence of the primary outcome measure was significantly higher in patients with moderate/severe MR than in those with none/mild MR, regardless of the initial treatment strategy (25.2% vs. 14.4%, P<0.001 in the initial AVR strategy, and 63.3% vs. 40.7%, P<0.001 in the conservative strategy). After adjusting confounders, moderate/severe MR was not independently associated with higher risk for the primary outcome measure in the initial AVR strategy (hazard ratio [HR] 1.11, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.67–1.83, P=0.69), and in the conservative strategy (HR 1.13, 95% CI 0.93–1.37, P=0.22).Conclusions:Concomitant moderate/severe MR was not independently associated with higher risk for the primary outcome measure regardless of the initial treatment strategy.

Background:The association between cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 genotypes and adverse events in patients treated with clopidogrel or prasugrel after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the Japanese population is unclear.Methods and Results:This study consisted of 1,580 patients whoseCYP2C19genotypes were assessed at Shiga University of Medical Science Hospital, and 193 clopidogrel-treated and 217 prasugrel-treated patients who were followed more than 1 year after receiving PCI were analyzed. Among 1,580 patients, the prevalence of normal, intermediate, and poor metabolizers was 32%, 49%, and 17%, respectively. Overall incidence of the primary outcome, defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, ischemic stroke, or major bleeding was not significantly different between the clopidogrel and prasugrel groups (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.98, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.85–4.61, P=0.12). Among patients with theCYP2C19loss-of-function (LOF) allele, however, the incidence of the primary outcome was significantly higher in the clopidogrel group (adjusted HR 3.19, 95% CI 1.10–9.24, P=0.03), whereas no difference was observed among patients without theCYP2C19LOF allele (adjusted HR 0.67, 95% CI 0.14–3.26, P=0.62).Conclusions:Among patients with theCYP2C19LOF allele, the use of clopidogrel was significantly associated with increased adverse events. Thus, further investigation is needed to establish the practical use ofCYP2C19genotyping.

Background:Optimal intensity is unclear for P2Y12receptor blocker therapy after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in real-world clinical practice.Methods and Results:From the CREDO-Kyoto Registry, the current study population consisted of 25,419 patients (Cohort-2: n=12,161 and Cohort-3: n=13,258) who underwent their first PCI. P2Y12receptor blocker therapies were reduced dose of ticlopidine (200 mg/day), and global dose of clopidogrel (75 mg/day) in 87.7% and 94.8% of patients in Cohort-2 and Cohort-3, respectively. Cumulative 3-year incidence of GUSTO moderate/severe bleeding was significantly higher in Cohort-3 than in Cohort-2 (12.1% and 9.0%, P<0.0001). After adjusting 17 demographic factors and 9 management factors potentially related to the bleeding events other than the type of P2Y12receptor blocker, the higher bleeding risk in Cohort-3 relative to Cohort-2 remained significant (hazard ratio (HR): 1.52 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.37–1.68, P<0.0001). Cohort-3 compared with Cohort-2 was not associated with lower adjusted risk for myocardial infarction/ischemic stroke (HR: 0.96, 95% CI: 0.87–1.06, P=0.44).Conclusions:In this historical comparative study, Cohort-3 compared with Cohort-2 was associated with excess bleeding risk, which might be at least partly explained by the difference in P2Y12receptor blockers.

Background:Outcomes with prasugrel single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) vs. dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in Japanese percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients with high bleeding risk (HBR) are currently unknown.Methods and Results:Data from 1,173 SAPT and 2,535 DAPT patients from the PENDULUM mono and PENDULUM registry studies (respective median DAPT durations: 108 vs. 312 days) were compared. The adjusted cumulative incidence of Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) 2, 3, or 5 bleeding from 1 to 12 months after PCI (primary endpoint) was 2.8% (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.9–4.2) and 4.1% (95% CI, 3.3–5.1), respectively (hazard ratio [HR], 0.69; 95% CI, 0.45–1.06; P=0.090). The adjusted cumulative incidences of BARC 2, 3, or 5 bleeding from 0 to 12 months after PCI (secondary endpoint) were 3.8% (95% CI, 2.7–5.3) and 5.6% (95% CI, 4.7–6.7), respectively (HR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.47–0.98; P=0.039). There was no significant difference in major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) from 1 to 12 months after PCI (HR, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.63–1.37; P=0.696) and at 12 months after PCI (HR, 0.85; 95% CI, 0.61–1.19; P=0.348) between the groups.Conclusions:Prasugrel SAPT may reduce BARC 2, 3, or 5 bleeding, without increasing MACCE, in Japanese patients with HBR.
