Popis: Aims: Despite widespread use of dual antiplatelet therapy in acute myocardial infarction, there remains a residual risk of morbidity and mortality. Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase inhibitors have been found to inhibit platelet aggregation through the Glycoprotein VI collagen-mediated pathway. The Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor, Ibrutinib is used in the management of haematological malignancies and another Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor, ONO-4059 (also known as tirabrutinib), is in clinical development. This is an observational study to evaluate the effects of Ibrutinib and ONO-4059 on platelet aggregation after acute myocardial infarction. Methods and results: Twenty patients with a confirmed diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction were enrolled and blood samples obtained within 48 h of hospital admission. All patients were on dual antiplatelet therapy; aspirin plus a P2Y12 inhibitor (clopidogrel or ticagrelor). Blood samples were treated ex vivo with increasing concentrations of Ibrutinib (0, 0.5, 1, 2 μM) and ONO-4059 (0, 0.2, 0.5, 1 μM). Platelet aggregation was measured in response to collagen using a Multiplate analyser to estimate the area under the curve, with lower values indicating lower platelet aggregation. The median age was 63 years and 80% were male. The median area under the curve values for Ibrutinib concentrations 0 (control), 0.5, 1 and 2 mmol/l were 18.5, 8 (P = 0.0004), 4.5 (P
