الوصف: BACKGROUND. Patients with cancer who have thrombocytopenia may experience acute coronary syndromes (ACS), and the use of aspirin (ASA) poses an increased risk of bleeding. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the benefit of ASA therapy in the treatment of ACS would extend to cancer patients with thrombocytopenia and outweigh the risks of severe bleeding. METHODS. The records of all cancer patients diagnosed with an ACS in 2001 and referred for cardiology consultation were reviewed. Patients were divided into 2 groups on the basis of platelet count, >100 cells k/μL and ≤100 cells k/μL. Data were collected on the use of ASA therapy, bleeding complications, and survival rates. The authors assessed group differences by using the Wilcoxon rank sum test or 2-tailed Fisher exact test, as appropriate. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to assess factors potentially associated with 7-day survival. RESULTS. In cancer patients with ACS and thrombocytopenia, those who did not receive ASA had a 7-day survival rate of 6% compared with 90% in those who did receive ASA (P 100 cells k/μL) who received ASA had a 7-day survival rate of 88% compared with 45% in those who did not receive ASA (P = .0096). CONCLUSIONS. Therapy with ASA was associated with a significantly improved 7-day survival after ACS in cancer patients, with or without thrombocytopenia, and not associated with more severe bleeding.
