Who cannot join

  • A history of or presence of renal, hepatic, neurological, hematological, gastrointestinal, or psychiatric disease or other condition known to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of drugs.
  • Hypersensitivity to clopidogrel or cangrelor (or the excipients therein).
  • Symptoms of a clinically significant illness, or surgery or trauma within 3 months prior to screening.
  • Donation of blood or plasma totaling more than 500 mL within the 3 months preceeding the study.

  • Use of any prescribed medications in the 2 weeks prior to dosing, any aspirin or naproxen-containing medication within 2 weeks of dosing, use of acetaminophen within 24 hours or ibuprofen, vitamins or dietary supplements within 48 hours of dosing (oral contraceptives are permitted).
  • Personal or family history of coagulation or bleeding disorders, or reasonable suspicion of vascular malformations, including aneurysms; history of important bleeding, (i.e. hematemesis, rectal bleeding, melena, severe or recurrent epistaxis, hemoptysis or intracranial hemorrhage), history of head injury or intracerebral disease, or recent or planned spinal or epidural puncture.

  • Anemia or thrombocytopenia (values on screening hematology less than the reporting laboratory's lower limit of normal).
  • Any other characteristic or condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, makes participation in this study inappropriate.

About this study

Official title: The Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of a Cangrelor Bolus Plus Infusion in Healthy Volunteers

The purposes of this study are to:

  • Evaluate the tolerability of two cangrelor regimens.
  • Compare the PD of cangrelor regimens with oral clopidogrel.
Read the detailed description

The purposes of this study are:

  • To evaluate the tolerability of two cangrelor regimens of bolus plus infusion (A and B).
  • To characterize the pharmacokinetics of Cangrelor (A and B).
  • To compare the pharmacodynamics of cangrelor regimens with that of an oral 600 mg dose of clopidogrel (A, B, C and D).
  • To determine the effect of prior cangrelor treatment on the pharmacodynamics of clopidogrel (C and D).
  • To determine the effect of prior clopidogrel treatment on the pharmacodynamics of cangrelor (Group D).
  • To determine the effects of concomitant clopidogrel and cangrelor exposure on the pharmacodynamics of clopidogrel (Group D).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing cangrelor in people with Healthy, run by The Medicines 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 7 inclusion and 13 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 Aug 2011. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

To evaluate the tolerability of two cangrelor regimens. 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 16 Aug 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
