Aspirin "desensitization" in patients with aspirin-induced urticaria and angioedema.

The study was performed on 22 patients with sensitivity to aspirin which manifested as urticaria and angioedema. Sensitivity to aspirin was established based on the anamnesis of urticaria and angioedema occurring after ingestion of aspirin and oral challenge tests with acetylsalicylic acid. At first, the threshold dose of aspirin in all patients and additionally of indomethacin in 12 patients was established. Aspirin "desensitization" was induced by administering increasing doses of acetylsalicylic acid every 24 hr until a good tolerance of 600 mg was obtained. The following day after the ingestion of 600 mg acetylsalicylic acid, 12 patients received 50 mg indomethacin. A good tolerance of 600 mg aspirin was achieved in all examined patients and 50 mg of indomethacin was also well tolerated. The authors assume that mechanism of urticaria and angioedema type of sensitivity to aspirin has the same pathogenic background as aspirin-induced bronchoconstriction.

Aspirin (100 mg) used for prevention of pre-eclampsia in nulliparous women: the Essai Régional Aspirine Mère-Enfant study (Part 1).

OBJECTIVE: To reduce the incidence of pre-eclampsia in nulliparous women, in accordance with the suggestion of a recent meta-analysis that low dose aspirin might decrease this incidence by more than half if used early enough in and at a sufficient dose during pregnancy (more than 75 mg). DESIGN: Multicentre randomised double-blinded placebo-controlled trial. SETTING: Twenty eight centres in Northern of France and one in Belgium. POPULATION: Three thousand and two hundred ninety-four nulliparous women recruited between 14 and 20 weeks. METHODS: Randomisation to either 100 mg aspirin or placebo daily from inclusion through 34 weeks. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Preeclampsia was defined as hypertension (> or =140 and or 90 mmHg) associated with proteinuria (> or =0.5 g/L). RESULTS: The aspirin (n = 1644) and placebo (n = 1650) groups did not differ significantly in the mothers' incidence of pre-eclampsia (28 of 1632 [1.7%] vs 26 of 1637 [1.6%]; relative risk, RR, 1.08, 95% CI 0.64-1.83), hypertension, HELLP syndrome or placental abruption, or in the children's incidence of perinatal deaths or birthweight below the 10th centile. The incidence of babies with birthweight below the third centile was significantly higher in the aspirin group, with no explanation. The incidence of maternal side effects was higher in the aspirin group, principally because of a significantly higher rate of haemorrhage. CONCLUSIONS: Aspirin at a dose of 100 mg does not reduce the incidence of pre-eclampsia in nulliparous women. Aspirin (100 mg) is associated with an increase in bleeding complications.

Fixed minidose warfarin and aspirin alone and in combination vs adjusted-dose warfarin for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation: Second Copenhagen Atrial Fibrillation, Aspirin, and Anticoagulation Study.

BACKGROUND: Despite the efficacy of warfarin sodium therapy for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation, many physicians hesitate to prescribe it to elderly patients because of the risk for bleeding complications and because of inconvenience for the patients. METHODS: The Second Copenhagen Atrial Fibrillation, Aspirin, and Anticoagulation Study was a randomized, controlled trial examining the following therapies: warfarin sodium, 1.25 mg/d; warfarin sodium, 1.25 mg/d, plus aspirin, 300 mg/d; and aspirin, 300 mg/d. These were compared with adjusted-dose warfarin therapy (international normalized ratio of prothrombin time [INR], 2.0-3.0). Stroke or a systemic thromboembolic event was the primary outcome event. Transient ischemic attack, acute myocardial infarction, and death were secondary events. Data were handled as survival data, and risk factors were identified using the Cox proportional hazards model. The trial was scheduled for 6 years from May 1, 1993, but due to scientific evidence of inefficiency of low-intensity warfarin plus aspirin therapy from another study, our trial was prematurely terminated on October 2, 1996. RESULTS: We included 677 patients (median age, 74 years). The cumulative primary event rate after 1 year was 5.8% in patients receiving minidose warfarin; 7.2%, warfarin plus aspirin; 3.6%, aspirin; and 2.8%, adjusted-dose warfarin (P = .67). After 3 years, no difference among the groups was seen. Major bleeding events were rare. CONCLUSIONS: Although the difference was insignificant, adjusted-dose warfarin seemed superior to minidose warfarin and to warfarin plus aspirin after 1 year of treatment. The results do not justify a change in the current recommendation of adjusted-dose warfarin (INR, 2.0-3.0) for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation.

Bleeding during warfarin and aspirin therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation: the AFASAK 2 study. Atrial Fibrillation Aspirin and Anticoagulation.

BACKGROUND: Treatment with warfarin sodium is effective for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation but many physicians hesitate to prescribe it to elderly patients presumably because of the associated risk for bleeding and the inconvenience of frequent blood tests for the patients. METHODS: In the Second Copenhagen Atrial Fibrillation, Aspirin, and Anticoagulation (AFASAK 2) Study, we studied the rate of bleeding events associated with the incidence of thromboembolic events in patients receiving warfarin sodium, 1.25 mg/d; warfarin sodium, 1.25 mg/d, plus aspirin, 300 mg/d; aspirin, 300 mg/d; or adjusted-dose warfarin therapy aiming at an international normalized ratio of the prothrombin time ratio (INR) of 2.0 to 3.0. The study was scheduled for 6 years from May 1, 1993, but owing to evidence of inefficiency of low-intensity therapy plus aspirin from another study it was prematurely terminated on October 2, 1996. Minor and major bleeding events were recorded prospectively. The rate of bleeding was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method and risk factors were identified by the Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS: Of 677 included patients, 130 (median age, 77 years; range, 67-89 years) experienced bleeding. One woman and 12 men experienced major bleeding. Four had intracranial bleeding: 2 cases were fatal and 2 were nonfatal. During treatment with mini-dose warfarin, warfarin plus aspirin, aspirin, and adjusted-dose warfarin, the annual rate of major bleeding was 0.8%, 0.3%, 1.4%, and 1.1%, respectively (P = .20). After 3 years of treatment the cumulative rate of any bleeding was 24.7%, 24.4%, 30.0%, and 41.1% (P = .003), respectively. Increasing INRvalue (P<.001) and prior myocardial infarction (P = .001) were independent risk factors for bleeding, whereas increasing age was not. CONCLUSIONS: Fixed mini-dose warfarin and aspirin alone or in combination were associated with both minor and major bleeding. The small number of major bleeding events in patients receiving adjusted-dose warfarin therapy as compared with those receiving less intensive antithrombotic treatments and the finding of no significant influence of age on the risk for bleeding indicate that even elderly patients with atrial fibrillation tolerate adjusted-dose warfarin therapy (INR, 2.0-3.0).

Comparison of enteric-coated aspirin and uncoated aspirin effect on bleeding time.

Aspirin therapy is an essential part of the drug regimen for patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI), unstable angina, or after coronary angioplasty and coronary stenting. Recognizing this importance, this study sought to compare the bleeding time in two groups of 10 normal volunteers 4 hr after ingestion of either an enteric-coated aspirin or an uncoated aspirin, assuming that a difference between the two groups could be clinically significant. Defining < or = 8 min as normal, 80% of the uncoated group developed abnormal bleeding times, compared to 10% of the enteric-coated group (P < 0.01). The study demonstrates a significant difference between the two types of aspirin preparations on bleeding times in normal individuals. This strongly suggests that some enteric-coated aspirin preparations may not be as effective as uncoated aspirin in acutely decreasing platelet aggregation. Therefore, uncoated aspirin is recommended in the setting of acute MI, unstable angina, or after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.

Aspirin and aspirin-caffeine in postpartum pain relief.

In two double-blind randomized, balanced, single oral dose studies with 140 women, a combination of 800 mg aspirin and 64 mg caffeine (aspirin-caffeine) was compared to 650 mg aspirin and to placebo. In patients with moderate to severe uterine or episiotomy pain, there was greater analgesic response with active drugs when the initial pain intensity was more severe. In patients with severe episiotomy pain, aspirin-caffeine was more effective than 650 mg aspirin (p less than 0.05) at the second and third hours. There was no difference between analgesic effects of aspirin and aspirin-caffeine in women with severe uterine pain.

Simultaneous determination of aspirin and salicylic acid in bulk aspirin and in plain, buffered, and enteric-coated tablets by high-pressure liquid chromatography with UV and fluorescence detectors.

A quantitative high-pressure liquid chromatographic method that uses a reversed-phase column coupled to UV and fluorescence detectors was developed to determine aspirin and salicylic acid in bulk aspirin and in plain, buffered, and enteric-coated tablets. The aspirin was dissolved, filtered, and injected into the chromatograph. The UV absorbance of aspirin was determined at 254 nm, and the fluorescence of salicylic acid was measured at 425 nm. Excipients and impurities did not interfere. Recoveries of 100% were obtained for aspirin and salicylic acid from simulated tablet formulations. Results obtained by the USP XIX procedure and the proposed method were compared. The coefficient of variation for the aspirin analysis was 0.59%; for salicylic acid, it was 1.69%. The rate of hydrolysis of aspirin to salicylic acid in the solvents used was < 0.05%/hr.

Aspirin-sensitive rhinosinusitis/asthma: spectrum of adverse reactions to aspirin.

In order to determine the types of respiratory responses observed during aspirin-induced reactions, 50 consecutive asthmatic patients with a history of aspirin sensitivity underwent prospective oral aspirin challenges between 1979 and 1981. Oral aspirin challenges produced 36 asthmatic responses (33 combined with rhinitis and three purely asthmatic) and six acute rhinoconjunctivitis responses (three combined with mild asthma and three purely rhinoconjunctivitis) but failed to stimulate any reaction in eight patients. The results produced by these challenges were then compared with results recorded during additional aspirin challenges in 28 of these patients, performed after the index challenge in 1979-1981 in 26 patients and in the case of two patients before 1979. The type of respiratory response to aspirin varied significantly in 11 (39%) of the 28 patients and included disappearance of aspirin reactivity in four patients.

Aspirin-sensitive rhinosinusitis: the clinical syndrome and effects of aspirin administration.

Nineteen aspirin sensitive adult patients were identified who experienced naso-ocular responses without associated bronchospasm during standardized oral aspirin challenge. These 19 patients exhibited the characteristics of the aspirin triad except asthma. These included hypertrophic rhinitis with or without associated nasal polyps, abnormal sinus roentgenograms, nasal eosinophilia, aspirin-provoked responses of the upper airway identical to those observed in aspirin-sensitive asthmatics, capacity of the upper airway to be desensitized to aspirin, and cross-reactivity and/or cross-desensitization of the upper airway to indomethacin. Of the 17 patients who were treated with daily aspirin after desensitization, 77% experienced improvement in their nasal symptoms.

Double-blind trial of aspirin in primary prevention of myocardial infarction in patients with stable chronic angina pectoris. The Swedish Angina Pectoris Aspirin Trial (SAPAT) Group.

Clinical trials have demonstrated a prophylactic role for aspirin in myocardial infarction and in unstable angina pectoris. The Swedish Angina Pectoris Aspirin Trial (SAPAT) is the first prospective study of aspirin in stable angina. 2035 patients were randomised double-blind to treatment with aspirin 75 mg daily or placebo. All patients were treated with sotalol for control of symptoms. The median duration of follow-up was 50 months. Compared with the placebo+sotalol group, the aspirin+sotalol group had a 34% (81 vs 124 patients) reduction in primary outcome events (myocardial infarction and sudden death; 95% confidence interval 24-49%; p = 0.003) and the reduction observed in secondary outcome events (vascular events, vascular death, all cause mortality, stroke) ranged from 22% to 32%. Treatment withdrawal caused by adverse events occurred in 109 patients in the aspirin+sotalol group and 100 in patients in the placebo+sotalol group; major bleeds, including haemorrhagic stroke, occurred in 20 and 13 patients, respectively (not significant). The addition of a low dose of aspirin to sotalol treatment showed significant benefit in terms of cardiovascular events, including a significant reduction in the incidence of first myocardial infarction in patients with symptoms of stable angina pectoris.

Clopidogrel added to aspirin versus aspirin alone in secondary prevention and high-risk primary prevention: rationale and design of the Clopidogrel for High Atherothrombotic Risk and Ischemic Stabilization, Management, and Avoidance (CHARISMA) trial.

BACKGROUND: Clopidogrel is a more potent antiplatelet agent than aspirin, resulting in greater clinical efficacy in patients with atherothrombotic disease. Furthermore, the combination of clopidogrel plus aspirin has been demonstrated to be superior to aspirin alone in the treatment of patients with acute coronary syndromes and after coronary stenting. Whether dual antiplatelet therapy is superior to aspirin monotherapy for high-risk primary prevention and secondary prevention is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: The Clopidogrel for High Atherothrombotic Risk and Ischemic Stabilization, Management, and Avoidance (CHARISMA) study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of clopidogrel plus aspirin versus placebo plus aspirin in patients with established coronary, cerebral, or peripheral arterial disease or in patients with multiple risk factors for atherothrombosis who have not yet sustained an ischemic event. This randomized, international, multicenter, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study has finished enrolling patients worldwide. A total of 15,603 patients will be followed long term. The primary end point will be the composite of vascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke. Rates of severe bleeding will also be compared between the two arms of the study. CONCLUSIONS: This large-scale trial of patients at high risk for atherothrombotic events will allow determination of the value of a strategy of adding clopidogrel to the current standard of care, including low-dose aspirin, for a wide spectrum of patients with atherothrombosis.

Increased urinary excretion of the prostaglandin D2 metabolite 9 alpha, 11 beta-prostaglandin F2 after aspirin challenge supports mast cell activation in aspirin-induced airway obstruction.

Prostaglandin (PG)D2 is a major product of arachidonic acid metabolism in pulmonary mast cells. We therefore attempted to determine whether measurement of the stable urinary metabolite of PGD2, 9 alpha, 11 beta-PGF2, could serve as a marker of mast cell activation in the lungs. A commercially available enzyme immunoassay was validated and found to be specific and sensitive when applied to unpurified urine. There was no diurnal variation in the levels of 9 alpha, 11 beta-PGF2 in healthy volunteers. Morning baseline values of urinary 9 alpha, 11 beta-PGF2 were measured in three groups--healthy volunteers (n = 9), patients with atopic asthma (n = 14), and aspirin-intolerant patients with asthma (n = 12)--and found to be very similar, 54 +/- 9, 62 +/- 6, and 71 +/- 15 ng/mmol creatinine, respectively (means +/- SEM). Urinary excretion of 9 alpha, 11 beta-PGF2 was increased threefold immediately after allergen-induced bronchoconstriction in nine patients with atopic asthma. Bronchial challenge with inhaled lysine aspirin in eight aspirin-intolerant patients with asthma produced bronchoconstriction without extrapulmonary symptoms and was also followed by a significant increase in the urinary excretion of 9 alpha, 11 beta-PGF2. In addition, challenge with a higher dose of aspirin produced an even greater increase in urinary 9 alpha, 11 beta-PGF2, supporting dose-dependent release of PGD2 during aspirin-induced bronchoconstriction. In contrast, the postchallenge levels of urinary 9 alpha, 11 beta-PGF2 were not increased when bronchoconstriction was induced by histamine challenge in the aspirin-intolerant patients with asthma. The study confirms mast cell involvement in allergen-induced bronchoconstriction and provides novel data, which strongly support the hypothesis that pulmonary mast cells are activated during aspirin-induced airway obstruction. It is finally suggested that measurement of urinary 9 alpha, 11 beta-PGF2 with enzyme immunoassay may be used as a new noninvasive strategy to monitor mast cell activation in vivo.

Evaluation of glycolamide esters and various other esters of aspirin as true aspirin prodrugs.

A series of glycolamide, glycolate, (acyloxy)methyl, alkyl, and aryl esters of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) were synthesized and evaluated as potential prodrug forms of aspirin. N,N-Disubstituted glycolamide esters were found to be rapidly hydrolyzed in human plasma, resulting in the formation of aspirin as well as the corresponding salicylate esters. These in turn hydrolyzed rapidly to salicylic acid. The largest amount of aspirin formed from the esters were 50 and 55% in case of the N,N-dimethyl- and N,N-diethylglycolamide esters, respectively. Similar results were obtained in blood with the N,N-dimethyl- and N,N-diethylglycolamide esters. Unsubstituted and monosubstituted glycolamide esters as well as most other esters previously suggested to be aspirin prodrugs were shown to hydrolyze exclusively to the corresponding salicylic acid esters. Lipophilicity parameters and water solubilities of the esters were determined, and structural factors favoring ester prodrug hydrolysis at the expense of deacetylation to yield salicylate ester are discussed. The properties of some N,N-disubstituted glycolamide esters of aspirin are highlighted with respect to their use as potential aspirin prodrugs.

Clopidogrel and aspirin versus aspirin alone for the prevention of atherothrombotic events.

BACKGROUND: Dual antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel plus low-dose aspirin has not been studied in a broad population of patients at high risk for atherothrombotic events. METHODS: We randomly assigned 15,603 patients with either clinically evident cardiovascular disease or multiple risk factors to receive clopidogrel (75 mg per day) plus low-dose aspirin (75 to 162 mg per day) or placebo plus low-dose aspirin and followed them for a median of 28 months. The primary efficacy end point was a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, or death from cardiovascular causes. RESULTS: The rate of the primary efficacy end point was 6.8 percent with clopidogrel plus aspirin and 7.3 percent with placebo plus aspirin (relative risk, 0.93; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.83 to 1.05; P=0.22). The respective rate of the principal secondary efficacy end point, which included hospitalizations for ischemic events, was 16.7 percent and 17.9 percent (relative risk, 0.92; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.86 to 0.995; P=0.04), and the rate of severe bleeding was 1.7 percent and 1.3 percent (relative risk, 1.25; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.97 to 1.61 percent; P=0.09). The rate of the primary end point among patients with multiple risk factors was 6.6 percent with clopidogrel and 5.5 percent with placebo (relative risk, 1.2; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.91 to 1.59; P=0.20) and the rate of death from cardiovascular causes also was higher with clopidogrel (3.9 percent vs. 2.2 percent, P=0.01). In the subgroup with clinically evident atherothrombosis, the rate was 6.9 percent with clopidogrel and 7.9 percent with placebo (relative risk, 0.88; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.77 to 0.998; P=0.046). CONCLUSIONS: In this trial, there was a suggestion of benefit with clopidogrel treatment in patients with symptomatic atherothrombosis and a suggestion of harm in patients with multiple risk factors. Overall, clopidogrel plus aspirin was not significantly more effective than aspirin alone in reducing the rate of myocardial infarction, stroke, or death from cardiovascular causes.

Aspirin-sensitive versus non-aspirin-sensitive nasal polyp patients: analysis of leukotrienes/Fas and Fas-ligand expression.

OBJECTIVE: The goal of the present study was to identify levels of leukotrienes released by leukocytes and nasal polyps from aspirin-sensitive patients (ASPs) and non-aspirin-sensitive patients (NASPs) after exposure to various concentrations of aspirin. Eosinophil expressions of apoptosis regulators were also compared. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: Leukotriene release from nasal polyps and leukocytes of ASPs and NASPs was measured after exposure to differing concentrations of aspirin. Eosinophils were analyzed for Fas and Fas ligand receptors using flow cytometry. RESULTS: NASPs showed increased leukotriene release from nasal polyps on increased aspirin exposure. Polyps from ASPs did not show any change. ASPs showed greater leukotriene release from blood on increasing aspirin exposure compared with NASPs. Flow cytometric analysis showed eosinophils in the peripheral blood of ASPs have decreased Fas expression compared with those of NASPs. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed differences in leukotriene release and eosinophil apoptosis between ASPs and NASPs. SIGNIFICANCE: These findings suggest a role of leukotrienes and eosinophils in aspirin sensitivity mechanisms in blood.

Aspirin induces its anti-inflammatory effects through its specific binding to phospholipase A2: crystal structure of the complex formed between phospholipase A2 and aspirin at 1.9 angstroms resolution.

Phospholipase A2 is potentially an important target for structure-based rational drug design. In order to determine the involvement of phospholipase A2 in the action of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), the crystal structure of the complex formed between phospholipase A2 and aspirin has been determined at 1.9 angstroms resolution. The structure contains 915 protein atoms, 1 calcium ion, 13 atoms of aspirin and 105 water molecules. The observed electron density of the aspirin molecule in the structure was of very high quality thus allowing the precise determination of its atomic coordinates leading to the clear description of its interactions with the enzyme. The structure of the complex clearly shows that aspirin is literally embedded in the hydrophobic environment of PLA2. It is so placed in the substrate binding channel that it forms several important attractive interactions with calcium ion, His 48 and Asp 49. Thus, the structure of the complex clearly shows that aspirin occupies a favourable place in the specific binding site of PLA2. The binding studies have shown that acetyl salicylate (aspirin) binds to PLA2 enzyme specifically with a dissociation constant of 6.4 x 10(-6) M. The structural details and binding data suggest that the inhibition of PLA2 by aspirin is of pharmacological

Vitamin E plus aspirin compared with aspirin alone in patients with transient ischemic attacks.

One hundred patients with transient ischemic attacks, minor strokes, or residual ischemic neurologic deficits were enrolled in a double-blind, randomized study comparing the effects of aspirin plus vitamin E [0.4 g (400 IU)/d; n = 52] with aspirin alone (325 mg; n = 48). The patients received study medication for 2 y or until they reached a termination point. Preliminary results show a significant reduction in the incidence of ischemic events in patients in the vitamin E plus aspirin group compared with patients taking only aspirin. There was no significant difference in the incidence of hemorrhagic stroke although both patients who developed it were taking vitamin E. Platelet adhesion was also measured in a randomized subgroup of both study populations by using collagen III as the adhesive surface. There was a highly significant reduction in platelet adhesiveness in patients who were taking vitamin E plus aspirin compared with those taking aspirin only. Measurement of alpha-tocopherol concentrations confirmed compliance of the patients with the medication schedule, showing a near doubling of serum concentrations of alpha-tocopherol. We concluded that the combination of vitamin E and a platelet antiaggregating agent (eg, aspirin) significantly enhances the efficacy of the preventive treatment regimen in patients with transient ischemic attacks and other ischemic cerebrovascular problems.

A sensitive liquid chromatographic assay for plasma aspirin and salicylate concentrations after low doses of aspirin.

An original, highly sensitive and specific high performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the measurement of aspirin and salicylate in plasma. Minimum concentrations of 10 micrograms/L (aspirin) and 0.5 mg/L (salicylate) can be measured using 1 ml of plasma. After collection, plasma is first treated with physostigmine sulfate to inhibit enzymatic hydrolysis of aspirin to salicylate. Maximal recovery is achieved using an acid extraction into anhydrous diethyl ether with a subsequent drying-down step in an iced water bath. Aspirin and salicylate are separated by elution with a mixture of methanol, 1-butanol, orthophosphoric acid, and water on a reversed-phase octadecyl silane column at 47 degrees C and detected at 234 nm by ultraviolet absorption. Quantitation is achieved using the peak height ratio of aspirin and salicylate to internal standard (m-anisic acid). The assay has been used for the study of simultaneous aspirin and salicylate pharmacokinetics after a single oral dose of 100 mg soluble glycinated aspirin for platelet antiaggregatory therapy in six subjects, one of whom was also studied after receiving a 600 mg dose.
