About this study

Official title: ACCELerated Inhibition of Platelet Aggregation, Inflammation and Ischemia-reperfusion Injury by Adjunctive Cilostazol Loading in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome

The purpose of this study is to determine whether adjunctive cilostazol loading/maintenance to standard treatment (aspirin, clopidogrel, and statin) is effective in reduction of major adverse cardiovascular events, platelet activation, inflammation and myonecrosis in patients with non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (ACS)undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Read the detailed description

In ACS patients, platelet activation, inflammation, and ischemia-reperfusion injury can be closely associated with the risk of post-PCI myonecrosis and ischemic events occurrence. In the ACCEL-AMI (Adjunctive Cilostazol versus high maintenance-dose ClopidogrEL in patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction)study, adjunctive cilostazol increased platelet inhibition compared with double-dose clopidogrel. Meanwhile, statins can reduce the extent of myonecrosis via limiting inflammation and myocardial infarct size by activating phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K), ecto-5'-nucleotidase, Akt/endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), and the downstream effectors inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Inhibition of PI3K, adenosine receptors, eNOS, iNOS, or COX-2 abrogates the protective effects of statins. In animal study, the combination of low-dose statin with cilostazol synergistically limits infarct size. Multiple studies have shown that cilostazol can influence inflammation and RISK pathway using the similar pathway with statin. This study will be performed to evaluate the role of adjunctive cilostazol in platelet inhibition, inflammation, and myonecrosis compared with standard treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dual Anti-Platelet Therapy (DAPT) and Triple Anti-Platelet Therapy (TAPT) in people with Platelet Aggregation Inhibitors and Anti-inflammatory Agent, run by Gyeongsang National University Hospital 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 10 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 24 Sep 2013. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (time frame: 1 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01354808, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 24 Sep 2013.
