The article discusses the Harmonizing Optimal Strategy for Treatment of Coronary Artery Stenosis Extended Antiplatelet Monotherapy (HOST-EXAM) trial. It compares clopidogrel to low-dose aspirin monotherapy after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for 24 months, where Kang J, Park KW and others performed a post-trial extended follow-up and it was observed in the trial that clopidogrel was superior for preventing thrombotic events and bleeding compared to aspirin.
