Trial summary

Extreme body weights (BW) or body mass index (BMI) affect the pharmacokinetics of antithrombotic drugs and consequently may affect cardiovascular risk during treatment. The goal of this clinical trial is to establish if clopidogrel treatment can be optimized in patients with a low or high BW compared to patients with… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Body Weight Adjusted Clopidogrel Treatment in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

Extreme body weights (BW) or body mass index (BMI) affect the pharmacokinetics of antithrombotic drugs and consequently may affect cardiovascular risk during treatment. The goal of this clinical trial is to establish if clopidogrel treatment can be optimized in patients with a low or high BW compared to patients with a normal BW by adjusting the dosage of clopidogrel and evaluating platelet reactivity.

Participants are stratified into three groups based on their BW (Low BW: BW <60kg; normal BW: 60-100kg; High BW: >100 kg)

Clopidogrel dosage will then be adjusted to the BW, as follows:

  • Low BW: >10 days clopidogrel 50mg 1dd1, followed by >10 days clopidogrel 25mg 1dd1.
  • Normal BW: Clopidogrel 75mg 1dd1.
  • High BW: >10 days clopidogrel 150mg 1dd1 followed by >10 days prasugrel 10mg 1dd1.

The primary endpoint of the study is P2Y12 Reaction Units (PRU) and platelet inhibition measured using the VerifyNow measured before starting new treatment regimen (at the end of 10 days of treatment).

Read the detailed description

Patients with a high BMI/BW have a higher cardiovascular risk and patients with a low BMI/BW seem to have a higher bleeding risk. A high BMI/BW affects the efficacy of clopidogrel. It is not yet known if this clopidogrel efficacy is altered in patients with a low BMI/BW and whether BW-adjusted treatment can optimise this efficacy. We hypothesize that a personalised treatment will eventually lead to a more optimal effect of clopidogrel, optimizing the balance between bleeding and thrombotic risk. This could benefit therapy compliance.

Primary Objective:

To determine if clopidogrel treatment can be optimized in patients with a low or high BW compared to patients with a normal BW by adjusting the dosage of clopidogrel and evaluating platelet reactivity measured using the VerifyNow.

Secondary Objective(s):

To determine if the CYP2C19 genotype has additional effect on the platelet reactivity in the different treatment groups.

This is a non-randomized single centre, prospective, experimental study in patients with CCS treated with clopidogrel 75mg (and aspirin). This study is designed to be pragmatic and is intended to be hypothesis generating. Patients have to be treated with clopidogrel for at least one month without the occurrence of a major bleeding event, an ischemic event (stroke, myocardial infarction, or coronary revascularization) and have to be free of angina complaints.

Participants are stratified into three groups based on their BW (Low BW: BW <60kg; normal BW: 60-100kg; High BW: >100 kg)

Clopidogrel dosage will then be adjusted to the BW, as follows:

  • Low BW: >10 days clopidogrel 50mg 1dd1, followed by >10 days clopidogrel 25mg 1dd1.
  • Normal BW: Clopidogrel 75mg 1dd1.
  • High BW: >10 days clopidogrel 150mg 1dd1 followed by >10 days prasugrel 10mg 1dd1.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Clopidogrel in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Platelet Reactivity, run by St. Antonius Hospital at 2 sites in Netherlands.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Netherlands. 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 combined 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.

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Platelet reactivity (time frame: Baseline and 10 days after dose alteration). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 2 Jun 2023.
