Abstract 12381: Elevated Serum Carboxy-Terminal Telopeptide of Type I Collagen is Associated With Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Stable Angina Pectoris Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Circulation(2022)
Abstract
Background: Despite high risk of developing cardiovascular events, it was reported to be difficult to predict clinical outcomes in patients with stable angina pectoris (AP). Serum carboxy-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (I-CTP), a marker of collagen degradation, was reportedly associated with clinical outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome. However, clinical usefulness of I-CTP has not yet been elucidated in patients with stable AP. The aim of this study was to examine whether I-CTP can predict clinical outcomes in patients with stable AP. Methods and Results: Serum I-CTP levels were measured in consecutive 360 patients with stable AP undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. All patients were divided into three groups according to serum I-CTP tertiles: low I-CTP group (≤4.4 ng/ml, n=120), middle I-CTP group (4.5-6.2 ng/ml, n=118), and high I-CTP group (≥6.3 ng/ml, n=122). The high I-CTP group was older and showed higher levels of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and lower levels of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) compared with other groups. During the median follow up period of 1,347 days, there were 68 cardiovascular events including all-cause deaths. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the high I-CTP group had the greatest risk for cardiovascular events among 3 groups. Univariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis showed that age, multivessel disease, BNP, eGFR, LVEF, and I-CTP were significantly associated with cardiovascular events. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis demonstrated that I-CTP was an independent predictor for cardiac events after adjusting for confounding risk factors. Conclusion: I-CTP could be the feasible marker for predicting cardiovascular events in patients with stable AP.
