About this study
Official title: A Multi-center, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study to Assess the Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics, Tolerability, and Safety of a Single Subcutaneous Injection of ACT-246475 in Adults With Stable Coronary Artery Disease
The goal of this study is to find out if a drug called selatogrel (ACT-246475) can prevent platelets from binding together when administered by an injection under the skin in the thigh or in the belly. Another goal is to know how fast and for how long selatogrel (ACT-246475) works and if there is a difference if the drug is injected in the thigh or in the belly. This study will also help to find out more about the safety of this new drug.
Read the detailed description
To investigate the pharmacodynamic (PD) and pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of selatogrel in patients with atherosclerotic disease, the present study will be conducted in patients with chronic coronary syndromes (CCS). Assessment in a population of patients with CCS allows better control and stability of concomitant treatments, and therefore more accurate characterization of the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profiles of selatogrel in the presence of background antiplatelet therapies.
The study will have 3 periods: a screening period of up to 21 days prior to randomization, a treatment period of 2 days from randomization (Day 1) to 24 hours post dose (Day 2), and a follow-up period from Day 3 to the safety follow-up telephone call 28 to 35 days after single administration of study drug (End-of-Study).

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
SelatogrelDrug
Also called ACT-246475
Selatogrel is a reversible P2Y12 receptor antagonist for subcutaneous administration. It is supplied in sealed glass vials at a strength of 20 mg. The vials with ACT-246475A (hydrochloride salt of ACT-246475) or matching placebo will be reconstituted with 1 mL of water for injection. Further dilution with 1 mL sodium chloride (NaCl) 0.9% will be performed for preparation of the dose of 8 mg selatogrel.
PlaceboDrug
Matching placebo for subcutaneous administration.
SelatogrelDrug
Also called ACT-246575
Selatogrel is a reversible P2Y12 receptor antagonist for subcutaneous administration. It is supplied in sealed glass vials at a strength of 20 mg. The vials with ACT-246475A (hydrochloride salt of ACT-246475) will be reconstituted with 1 mL of water for injection.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Selatogrel 8 mg | Experimental | Selatogrel (ACT-246475) is given as a single subcutaneous dose of 8 mg administered in a volume of 0.8 mL. Administration will be performed at the investigational site by qualified personnel. Receives: Drug: Selatogrel |
| Selatogrel 16 mg | Experimental | Selatogrel (ACT-246475) is given as a single subcutaneous dose of 16 mg administered in a volume of 0.8 mL. Administration will be performed at the investigational site by qualified personnel. Receives: Drug: Selatogrel |
| Placebo | Placebo comparator | Placebo matching ACT-246475 is supplied in sealed glass vials for reconstitution with water for injection. Placebo will be given as a single subcutaneous dose matching selatogrel to be administered in a volume of 0.8 mL. Administration will performed at the investigational site by qualified personnel.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants With a Pharmacodynamic Response as Assessed by the Inhibition of Platelet Aggregation
The pharmacodynamic response was determined by measuring the inhibition of platelet aggregation, using VerifyNow®. The VerifyNow® is a point-of-care test measuring platelet reactivity. The results are expressed as P2Y12 reaction units (PRU). The target of 100 PRU corresponds to 80% inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation. A participant with a PRU of less than 100 starting from 30 minutes after the administration of study treatment and lasting for at least 3 hours was considered a "responder".
Measured: From 15 minutes after administration of the subcutaneous injection up to 24 hours
Secondary outcomes (3)
Maximum Selatogrel Plasma Concentration (Cmax)
The Cmax is the peak concentration of selatogrel in the plasma after subcutaneous injection.
The pharmacokinetic parameters of selatogrel (ACT-246475) were derived by non-compartmental analyses of the plasma concentration-time profiles.
Measured: Pre-dose, and from 15 minutes after administration of the subcutaneous injection up to 24 hours
Time to Reach Maximum Selatogrel Plasma Concentration (Tmax)
Time after subcutaneous injection to reach the maximum observed selatogrel plasma concentration (Cmax).
Measured: Pre-dose, and from 15 minutes after administration of the subcutaneous injection up to 24 hours
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve of Selatogrel From Time Zero to 24 Hour Time Point (AUC0-24)
The area under the plasma concentration-time curve is the integral of the concentration-time curve after subcutaneous injection of selatogrel.
The plasma pharmacokinetic parameters of selatogrel (ACT-246475) were derived by non-compartmental analyses of the plasma concentration-time profiles.
Measured: Pre-dose, and from 15 minutes after administration of the subcutaneous injection up to 24 hours post-dose

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Selatogrel in people with Stable Coronary Artery Disease, run by Viatris Innovation GmbH at 20 sites in 8 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
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 29 Jul 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 20 sites in United States, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Denmark, Sweden and 3 more countries. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 17 May 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Number of Participants With a Pharmacodynamic Response as Assessed by the Inhibition of Platelet Aggregation (time frame: From 15 minutes after administration of the subcutaneous injection up to 24 hours). 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 NCT03384966, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 29 Jul 2026.
