Trial summary

Acetylsalicylic acid (Aspirin, ASA) is the most widely prescribed drug used in primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. However, aspirin resistance has been described, mostly in cardiac patients and is an independent predictive factor for a poor survival. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: patients hospitalized for critical limb ischaemia and aspirin resistant using the VerifyNow®.

Who may be able to join

  • any adult patient hospitalized for critical limb ischaemia and already treated by aspirin for at least 4 days before the VerifyNow® test. Critical limb ischemia is defined by the TASC II criteria : chronic ischemic rest pain, ulcers or gangrene attributable to objectively proven arterial occlusive disease, confirmed by an ankle pressure subordinate or equal 50 mmHg and a toe pressure subordinate or equal 30 mmHg, or a transcutaneous oxygen tension subordinate or equal 30 mmHg

Who cannot join

  • non observance to aspirin treatment, other drugs that could interact with platelets (NSAIDs, other anti-platelet agents), other peripheral vascular disease status than critical limb ischemia, acute limb ischemia, platelet number lower than 100 000/mm3, hematocrit lower than 29%, known primary hemostasis disorder.

About this study

Official title: Cardiovascular Events at One Year of Patients Hospitalized for Critical Limb Ischaemia and Aspirin Resistant Using the VerifyNow®. Aspirin Resistance and Prognosis of Patients With Critical Limb Ischaemia

Acetylsalicylic acid (Aspirin, ASA) is the most widely prescribed drug used in primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. However, aspirin resistance has been described, mostly in cardiac patients and is an independent predictive factor for a poor survival. Two frequent conditions in patients with cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and hypercholesterolemia, are also considered as risk factors for aspirin resistance. Among patients with peripheral arterial disease, those with critical limb ischemia have the worst cardiovascular prognosis. At one year, 23% are dead, 25% have a major cardiovascular event and 25% have a major amputation (which can be combined). Aspirin resistance is poorly studied in these patients, and to our knowledge no study has been made to assess the prognosis value of aspirin resistance on cardiovascular outcomes in critical limb ischaemia patients.

Hospitalized critical limb ischaemia patients will be tested for aspirin resistance using the bed-side point of care VerifyNow®, and will be followed during one year, including death, fatal and non-fatal acute coronary syndromes, cardiac decompensation, stroke, and major amputation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aspirin Resistance, run by University Hospital, Limoges at 2 sites in France.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 14 Jan 2019. 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 France. 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.

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?

major adverse cardiac events (MACE) including death, acute coronary syndromes, cardiac decompensation, stroke, major amputations. (time frame: 2 years). 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 14 Jan 2019.
