About this study

Official title: A Comparison of CS-747 and Clopidogrel in Acute Coronary Syndrome Subjects Who Are to Undergo Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

The sponsors of this investigational drug are developing prasugrel (also known as CS-747) as a possible treatment for patients with acute coronary syndrome (heart attack or chest pain) who need, or are expected to need, a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI; also called a balloon angioplasty). Prasugrel was compared with Clopidogrel to determine which drug is better at reducing deaths, future heart attacks, or stroke.

Being tested
Prasugrel, Clopidogrel
Medical subject headings
Coronary Artery Disease, Acute Coronary Syndrome

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Subjects Reaching the Composite Endpoint of Cardiovascular (CV) Death, Nonfatal Myocardial Infarction (MI), or Nonfatal Stroke

    The endpoint in this measure is a combination of CV death, nonfatal MI, or nonfatal stroke. The data is presented by the study population, which is represented as follows: 1) subjects who presented with unstable angina and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (UA/NSTEMI), 2) subjects who presented with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and 3) all subjects with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) (i.e. all subjects with UA/NSTEMI or STEMI).

    Measured: Randomization up to 15 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of Treated Subjects With Non-Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Related Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Study Group Major and Minor Bleeding Events

    TIMI classification for major and minor bleeding in the subset of subjects who did not undergo a coronary artery bypass operation (CABG) were defined as follows: Major bleeding: any intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) OR any clinically overt bleeding (including bleeding evident on imaging studies) associated with a fall in hemoglobin (Hgb) of ≥5 grams/deciliter (gm/dL)from baseline. Minor Bleeding: any clinically overt bleeding associated with a fall in Hgb of ≥3 gm/dL but <5 gm/dL from baseline. Major bleeding events were further examined as events that were deemed life threatening and/or fatal.

    Measured: First dose of study drug up to 15 months (while at risk)

  2. Number of Subjects Reaching the Composite Endpoint of Cardiovascular (CV) Death, Nonfatal Myocardial Infarction (MI), or Urgent Target Vessel Revascularization (UTVR)

    The endpoint in this measure is a combination of CV death, nonfatal MI, or UTVR. Results are reported for the All ACS subject population for the 30 and 90 day periods.

    Measured: Randomization to 30 days; randomization to 90 days

  3. Number of Subjects Reaching the Composite Endpoint of Cardiovascular (CV) Death, Nonfatal Myocardial Infarction (MI), or Nonfatal Stroke

    The endpoint in this measure is a combination of CV death, nonfatal MI, or nonfatal stroke. Results are reported for the All ACS population for the 30 and 90 day periods.

    Measured: Randomization to 30 days; randomization to 90 days

  4. Number of Subjects Reaching the Composite Endpoint of Cardiovascular (CV) Death, Nonfatal Myocardial Infarction (MI), Nonfatal Stroke, or Rehospitalization for Cardiac Ischemic Events

    The endpoint in this measure is a combination of CV death, nonfatal MI, nonfatal stroke, or rehospitalization for cardiac ischemic events. Results are reported for the All ACS population.

    Measured: Randomization up to 15 months

  5. Number of Subjects Reaching the Composite Endpoint of All-Cause Death, Nonfatal Myocardial Infarction (MI), or Nonfatal Stroke

    The endpoint in this measure is a combination of all-cause death, nonfatal MI, or nonfatal stroke. Results are reported for the All ACS population.

    Measured: Randomization up to 15 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Prasugrel and Clopidogrel in people with Coronary Arteriosclerosis and Acute Coronary Syndromes, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 1 site in United States.

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 6 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 16 Sep 2010. 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 United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Sep 2010). 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 Subjects Reaching the Composite Endpoint of Cardiovascular (CV) Death, Nonfatal Myocardial Infarction (MI), or Nonfatal Stroke (time frame: Randomization up to 15 months). 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 NCT00097591, which also lists 18 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 16 Sep 2010.
