Protease-activated receptors (PARs) are transmembrane proteins which rank among G-protein-coupled receptors. So far, four PARs (PAR1-4) have been described. They are activated by a protease cleavage at the N-terminal part of the receptor. Through the cleavage a new N-terminus appears which acts as a ligand activating the receptor. A peptide of the same amino acid sequence as the new N-terminus can activate the receptor without its cleavage. Some non-specific proteases can cleave PAR receptors at different sites, which results in changes in cell signaling. Higher activities of PARs have been observed under various pathological conditions, such as thrombosis, atherosclerosis, inflammations or neurodegeneration. Specific modulators of PAR signaling are a promising class of compounds with a wide therapeutic potential. First PAR inhibitors were based mainly on the amino acid sequence in the activating peptides. Recently, new, low-molecularweight, very specific and effective inhibitors have been developed. One of them, vorapaxar, passed the clinical tests and was introduced to the market.

The therapeutic potential of vorapaxar in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unknown. This prespecified analysis of a postrandomization subgroup evaluated the effects of vorapaxar compared with placebo among Thrombin Receptor Antagonist for Clinical Event Reduction in Acute Coronary Syndrome (TRACER) participants undergoing PCI, focusing on the implanted stent type (drug-eluting stent [DES] vs bare-metal stent [BMS]). Among 12,944 recruited patients, 7,479 (57.8%) underwent PCI during index hospitalization, and 3,060 (40.9%) of those patients received exclusively BMS, whereas 4,015 (53.7%) received DES. The median (twenty-fifth, seventy-fifth percentiles) duration of thienopyridine therapy was 133 days (47, 246) with BMS and 221 days (88, 341) with DES. At 2 years among patients undergoing PCI, the primary (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, recurrent ischemia with rehospitalization, or urgent coronary revascularization) and secondary (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke) end points did not differ between vorapaxar and placebo groups, which was consistent with the treatment effect observed in the overall study population (p value for interaction = 0.540). However, the treatment effect trended greater (p value for interaction = 0.069) and the risk for bleeding in patients taking vorapaxar versus placebo appeared attenuated in BMS-only recipients. After adjustment for confounders, the interaction was no longer significant (p value = 0.301). The covariate that mostly explained the stent-type-by-treatment interaction was the duration of clopidogrel therapy. In conclusion, among patients with PCI, the effect of vorapaxar is consistent with the overall TRACER results. Patients who received a BMS underwent shorter courses of clopidogrel therapy and displayed trends toward greater ischemic benefit from vorapaxar and lesser bleeding risk, compared with patients who received a DES.

There are only few areas of cardiology that have witnessed such dramatic innovations as that occurring in the treatment and prophylaxis of thrombotic events. Antithrombotic (i.e., antiplatelet and anticoagulation) therapy plays a pivotal role in the prophylaxis of the pandemic of cardiovascular disease. Given the host of triggers activating primary hemostasis, various therapeutic strategies are currently available. The current approach, monotherapy or dual therapy or, possibly, combination therapy with antiplatelet and anticoagulant agents is selected based on the risk of a thrombotic event, dominant disease, and the risk of bleeding.The main problem associated with the current therapeutic strategy was not an insufficient effect, but major inter-individual variability of effect resulting in therapy failure or an unacceptable risk of bleeding documented in a non-negligible proportion of patients. Hence there is a drive for devising new antiplatelet strategies and innovation in (already) established classes of drugs.Milestones in the evolution of antiplatelet therapy included the advent of new, more effective and/or safer antiplatelet agents inhibiting platelet activation. The new irreversible P2Y12 receptor antagonist prasurgel and reversible P2Y12 receptor antagonist ticagrelor have been approved for clinical use. There has also been major progress in the development of thrombin protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR-1) antagonists (vorapaxar, atopaxar) or serotonin receptor blockers (sarpogrelat). Another promising therapeutic strategy is targeted at platelet stabilization through increased cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) activity by platelet phosphodiesterase-3 inhibition (cilostazol). Further, new insights into the bioavailability of acetylsalicylic acid under specific conditions have been reported regarding the class of agents inhibiting thromboxane A2-mediated activation.
