Trial summary

Since diabetic platelets are characterized by an enhanced turnover rate, it may be hypothesized that an increase in the frequency, rather than the dose, of drug administration may be a more effective strategy to inhibit platelet reactivity in diabetic patients as this may enable COX-1 blockade of newly generated… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pharmacodynamic Effects of Different Aspirin Dosing Regimens in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

Since diabetic platelets are characterized by an enhanced turnover rate, it may be hypothesized that an increase in the frequency, rather than the dose, of drug administration may be a more effective strategy to inhibit platelet reactivity in diabetic patients as this may enable COX-1 blockade of newly generated platelets. However, how different dosing regimens impact the pharmacodynamic effects of aspirin selectively in diabetes mellitus has been poorly explored. Therefore, the aim of the present pilot investigation was to evaluate how increasing the frequency of aspirin administration, remaining within the daily recommended therapeutic doses, affects antiplatelet responsiveness in diabetic patients with coronary artery disease.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • AspirinDrug

    After having been on aspirin 81mg/daily for at least one-week, patients switched their aspirin regimen on a weekly basis according to the following scheme: aspirin 81mg twice daily (bid) for one week; aspirin 162 mg once daily (od) for one week; aspirin 162 mg bid for one week; aspirin 325 mg od for one week. Pharmacodynamic assessments were made after each sequence (5 time-points). Afterward, patients resumed the dose of aspirin that they were on prior to entering the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Aspirin in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Coronary Artery Disease, run by University of Florida 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 1 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 6 Mar 2012. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 6 Mar 2012). 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?

Collagen Induced Aggregation (time frame: after 1 -week of treatment). 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 NCT01201785, 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 6 Mar 2012.
