About this study

Official title: Sarpogrelate-Aspirin Comparative Clinical Study for Efficacy and Safety in Secondary Prevention of Cerebral Infarction (S-ACCESS): A Randomized, Double-Blind, Aspirin-Controlled Trial

Sarpogrelate (MCI-9042) is an antiplatelet drug that decreases 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) levels in platelets via a blockade of 5-HT2 receptors; it has been used in atherosclerotic peripheral arterial disease.

S-ACCESS was a randomized, double-blinded trial to compare the relative efficacy of sarpogrelate (100mg three times daily) and aspirin (81mg once daily) in 1510 patients with recent cerebral infarction. Patients were followed for 0.9 to 3.5 years. The primary endpoint was recurrence of cerebral infarction; relative safety was also assessed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing MCI-9042 and Aspirin in people with Cerebral Infarction, run by Tanabe Pharma Corporation.

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 6 inclusion and 9 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 19 Aug 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

recurrence of cerebral infarction. 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 NCT00129805, 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 19 Aug 2008.
