Trial summary

Acute coronary syndromes are related to the development of a platelet derived thrombus on a ruptured coronary atheroma. Use of dual antiplatelet therapy aspirin-thienopyridine a significantly reduced the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

About this study

Acute coronary syndromes are related to the development of a platelet derived thrombus on a ruptured coronary atheroma. Use of dual antiplatelet therapy aspirin-thienopyridine a significantly reduced the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However despite these therapeutic innovations, the rate of MACE in patients treated using PCI and particularly in those suffering of an acute coronary syndrome is around 5% in randomized trials. Within the factors associated with MACE, high on treatment platelet reactivity following clopidogrel loading dose has been identified as a key factor. In fact it is widely recognized that there is a large inter individual variability in clopidogrel responsiveness. In addition several authors have demonstrated a strong link between high on treatment platelet reactivity following clopidogrel loading dose and the occurrence of post PCI MACE. Vasodilator Phosphoprotein index measurement (VASP index) enables a reproducible, standardized and specific assessment of clopidogrel responsiveness.

The investigators previous works have demonstrated that a VASP index ≥ 50% had a high negative predictive value for post PCI MACE in patients undergoing PCI and that tailored clopidogrel loading dose in order to obtain a VASP index < 50% before PCI resulted in a reduction in the rate of post PCI MACE.

Prasugrel is a new generation thienopyridine with a faster and more powerful anti platelet effect compared to clopidogrel. It was shown to be superior to clopidogrel to reduce post PCI MACE in acute coronary syndromes. However in this randomized trial prasugrel achieved an excessive blockade of platelet reactivity responsible for a significant increase in bleeding events in some patients and an insufficient blockade in up to 325% of the remaining patients.

Therefore the investigators hypothesized that a strategy of individually tailored loading and maintenance dose of clopidogrel may be superior to prasugrel standard therapy in achieving an optimal platelet reactivity inhibition in acute coronary syndrome patients undergoing PCI.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PRASUGRELDrug

    60 mg the first day then 10 mg per day during one month

  • ClopidogrelDrug

    600 mg clopidogrel will be administered during the first 6 to 12 hours then a measure of platelets reactivity will be done. An additional administration of clopidogrel (600 mg) could be done every 6 hours until to obtain a VASP <50%. No more than 3 * 600mg of clopidogrel will be authorized in this protocol.

    Then for patient which have received more than one dose of clopidogrel 600mg , 150 mg per day of clopidogrel will be administrated, for which who have received only one dose of 600mg of clopidogrel , 75 mg per day will be administrated during one month at least.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing PRASUGREL and Clopidogrel in people with Acute Coronary Syndromes, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 14 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 23 May 2012. 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 France. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

the biological efficacy of tailored clopidogrel therapy (time frame: 12 months). 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 23 May 2012.
