Key result
Among CYP2C19 mutant allele carriers undergoing PCI, adjunctive cilostazol achieved greater absolute change in maximal platelet aggregation compared to high-dose clopidogrel (25.8% vs 11.1%, P<0.001).
Why the study?
Does adjunctive cilostazol improve platelet inhibition compared to high maintenance-dose clopidogrel in high-risk patients undergoing elective PCI, irrespective of CYP2C19 genotyping?

Adjunctive cilostazol achieves greater platelet inhibition than high-dose clopidogrel in PCI patients who are carriers of the CYP2C19 loss-of-function allele.
Hwang et al. (2010) conducted an RCT in high-risk patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (n=134). Adjunctive cilostazol vs. High maintenance-dose clopidogrel (150 mg daily) was evaluated on Absolute change in maximal platelet aggregation (ΔAgg(max)) according to CYP2C19 genotyping (p=<0.001). Among CYP2C19 mutant allele carriers undergoing PCI, adjunctive cilostazol achieved greater absolute change in maximal platelet aggregation compared to high-dose clopidogrel (25.8% vs 11.1%, P<0.001).
