About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Parallel Group, International (Asian), Multicenter, Phase 3 Study to Assess Safety and Efficacy of AZD6140 on Top of Low Dose Acetyl Salicylic Acid (ASA) Versus Clopidogrel on Top of Low Dose ASA in Asian/Japanese Patients With Non-ST or ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes(ACS) for Whom PCI is Planned

What is being measured

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

  1. Major Bleeding

    Time to first occurrence of any major bleeding event (adjudicated by an independent Clinical Endpoint Committee (ICEC)). 1-year event rate (%) estimated via Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Ongoing up to12 months

  2. Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE)

    Time to first occurrence of any event from the composite of death from vascular causes, Myocardial Infarction (MI) and stroke (adjudicated by an ICEC). 1-year event rate (%) estimated via Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Ongoing up to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Major and Minor Bleeding

    Time to first occurrence of any major or minor bleeding event (adjudicated by an independent Clinical Endpoint Committee (ICEC)). 1-year event rate (%) estimated via Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Ongoing up to12 months

  2. Composite of All-cause Mortality, MI or Stroke

    Time to first occurrence of any event from the composite of death from any causes, Myocardial Infarction (MI) and stroke (adjudicated by an ICEC). 1-year event rate (%) estimated via Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Ongoing up to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ticagrelor, Clopidogrel and Acetylsalicylic acid ASA in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention, run by AstraZeneca at 87 sites in 3 countries.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 27 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 87 sites in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 May 2014). 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?

Major Bleeding (time frame: Ongoing up to12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 27 Jun 2014.
