About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Safety and Efficacy of Two Ticagrelor-based De-escalation Antiplatelet Strategies in Acute Coronary Syndrome: the Randomized, Multicenter, Double-blind ELECTRA RCT Study

The ELECTRA-SIRIO 2 study is a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, investigator-initiated clinical trial aimed to evaluate safety and efficacy of two ticagrelor-based de-escalation antiplatelet strategies in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). During the hospitalization due to ACS, participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio into one of three arms: low-dose ticagrelor with aspirin (LDTA), low-dose ticagrelor with placebo (LDTP), and standard-dose ticagrelor with aspirin (SDTA), the latter being the control arm. Up to day 30, all enrolled patients will receive standard-dose ticagrelor (2x90mg) + aspirin (1x100mg). Starting from day 31 LDTA and LDTP patients will receive low-dose ticagrelor (2x60mg) + aspirin (1x100mg), SDTA - continuation of previous treatment. Starting from day 91 LDTP patients will receive low-dose ticagrelor (2x60mg) + placebo, SDTA and LDTA - continuation of previous treatment. The aim of the study is to evaluate the influence of ticagrelor maintenance dose reduction from 2x90mg to 2x60mg with or without continuation of aspirin versus dual antiplatelet therapy with standard dose ticagrelor in reducing clinically relevant bleeding and maintaining anti-ischemic efficacy in ACS patients.

What participants receive

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

  • Ticagrelor 90mgDrug

    Also called Brilique

    Up to day 30 after ACS, all enrolled patients will receive standard-dose ticagrelor 2x90mg as a part of dual antiplatelet therapy. Participants in SDTA arm will continue treatment with ticagrelor 2x90mg until 12 months post-ACS, while patients in LDTA and LDTP will be switched to low-dose ticagrelor 2x60 mg starting on day 31.

  • Ticagrelor 60mgDrug

    Also called Brilique

    Starting from day 31, LDTA and LDTP patients will receive low-dose ticagrelor 2x60mg until 12 months post-ACS.

  • AspirinDrug

    Also called acetylsalicylic acid

    Up to day 90 after ACS, all enrolled patients will receive aspirin 1x100mg as a part of dual antiplatelet therapy. Starting from day 91, LDTP patients will discontinue aspirin and proceed with low-dose ticagrelor monotherapy until 12 months post-ACS, while patients in LDTA and SDTA will continue aspirin 1x100 mg until 12 months post-ACS.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ticagrelor 90mg, Ticagrelor 60mg and Aspirin in people with STEMI and NSTEMI, run by Collegium Medicum w Bydgoszczy at 1 site in Poland.

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 15 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Apr 2023. 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 Poland. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Piotr Adamski, MD, PhD (+48 52 585 4023, piotr.adamski@cm.umk.pl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

BARC type 2, 3 or 5 bleeding (time frame: 12 months after ACS). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04718025, 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 21 Apr 2023.
