About this study

Official title: The Comparison of Effects Between Increased Dose of Clopidogrel and Addition of Cilostazol in Clopidogrel Non-Responders After Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation

To compare the effect of increased dosing of clopidogrel and adding cilostazol to standard dose of clopidogrel after the insertion of drug-eluting stent in patients with clopidogrel resistance

Read the detailed description

Using dual antiplatelet agents with aspirin and clopidogrel is essential after drug-eluting stent implantation to prevent restenosis and stent thrombosis. However, variable platelet response and potential resistance to therapy have emerged with clopidogrel. Several studies showed that clopidogrel resistance is associated with increased cardiovascular events after coronary interventions. New antiplatelet therapeutic strategy of is needed in case of clopidogrel resistance. We started this study to compare the effect of double dosing of clopidogrel to 150mg per day and adding cilostazol to standard dose of clopidogrel after the insertion of drug-eluting stent in patients with clopidogrel resistance.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing aspirin, clopidogrel and aspirin, clopidogrel, cilostazol in people with Clopidogrel Non-Responsiveness, run by Samsung Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Feb 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

% platelet inhibition with VeryfyNow-P2Y12 assay, platelet function test (time frame: 4 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Feb 2009.
