About this study

Official title: Randomised Clinical Trial, Parallel, Double Blind, to Evaluate the Influence of the ASA-SR (Slow-Release) in the Platelet Parameters and the Oxidative Status, in Patients With Coronary Disease of Chronic Evolution During 12 Months

Evaluation of the pharmacodynamic profile (antiaggregant profile, balance of prostanoids and nitric oxid) of a ASA-SR (slow-release)formulation in comparison with a ASA NR (normal release), 150 mg, during 12 months of treatment.

Read the detailed description
  • A large clinical trials have established the efficacy of the antiaggregant products in patients with ischemic cardiopathy, stroke and intermittent claudication.
  • The acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) is the most used antiaggregant substance, nevertheless, and spite of being centenarian, it last some questions pending regarding the most appropriate dose, mechanisms of action implicated, the association with oder drugs, and the pharmaceutical fom in order to improve the efficacy and safety of the ASA.
  • Some previous studies indicate that the slow release form of ASA has a different behaviour in the platelet effect in comparison with plain formulation.
  • The aim of this study is to demonstrate the best antiaggregant and safety profile of a low dose of a slow release formulation in a long term treatment period of one year.

What is being measured

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

  1. The evaluation of the effect of treatment with slow release ASA on the tromboxane/prostacyclin balance and its repercusion in the platelet aggregation

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety profile of the two different formulations of ASA (Slow Release and Normal Release)

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Slow release acetyl salicylic acid and Antithrombotic effect in people with Cardiovascular Disease, run by Rottapharm Spain at 1 site in Spain.

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 3 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 18 Jul 2007. 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 Spain. 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?

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?

The evaluation of the effect of treatment with slow release ASA on the tromboxane/prostacyclin balance and its repercusion in the platelet aggregation (time frame: one year). 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 18 Jul 2007.
