About this study

Official title: Phase IV Study of Aspirin and Clopidogrel Therapy Tailored by Functional Thrombocyte Examination (PFA-100, LTA and VerifyNOW) in Acute Myocardial Infarction

The purpose of this study is to compare 3 point-of-care methods for monitoring antiplatelet therapy to golden standard (Light transmittance aggregometry-LTA) in high risk population of acute myocardial infarction patients. If two methods (PFA-100, VerifyNOW,Multiplate or LTA) will indicate insufficient antiplatelet blockade/high residual reactivity for aspirin, clopidogrel or both, the dose of aspirin will be increased to 200mg qd and the dose of clopidogrel will be increased to 2x75mg qd.In addition genotyping of CYP2C19 (6 alleles) will be performed.

Read the detailed description

Dual antiplatelet therapy is the cornerstone of treatment of coronary heart disease after coronary stent implantation. The interindividual response to this therapy is not uniform, however. There are subgroups of patients, where no anticipated antiplatelet effect to either aspirin, clopidogrel or both is reached. The term of aspirin/clopidogrel resistance has been introduced few years ago, most recently it was substituted by more suitable term - high on-treatment residual platelet reactivity (HPR). Although there are many assays to monitor antiplatelet therapy, uncertainty still remains about the correlation of HPR with ischemic vascular events (in-stent thrombosis, myocardial infarction, etc.). Thus platelet aggregation testing is considered to be the most promising method to indicate inappropriate/low response to aspirin/clopidogrel, however the best suited method is not established yet. Up-to date light transmittance aggregometry is widely accepted as golden standard, nonetheless labour intensive and difficult to standardize. On the other hand many point-of-care aggregation testing methods like PFA-100, VerifyNOW, Multiplate etc. have been introduced, their role in clinical practice is uncertain, however. The biggest challenge of today is to determine platelet function assay, which could reliably indicate future ischemic vascular events;moreover it could be potentially used to tailor antiplatelet therapy and precede these events. It was demonstrated, that gene polymorphism - CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C9*3 loss of function is conjugated with an increased occurrence of stent thrombosis. Within the project we also plan to examine 4 alleles which have not been examined in detail before.

What participants receive

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

  • Aspirin 200mg qd, Clopidogrel 2x75mg qdDrug

    Also called R-130964

    According to 2 platelet monitoring assays HPR confirmation aspirin will be increased to 200mg qd, clopidogrel to 2x75mg qd. This treatment will be given for 30 days from index event (myocardial infarction)

What is being measured

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

  1. Platelet inhibition level

    The main outcome measure is the difference in platelet inhibition between clopidogrel 1x75mg and 2x75mg in HPR patients

    Measured: 5 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Bleeding Events

    TIMI major/minor bleeding Bleeding prediction with Crusade bleeding score (calculator free accessible at http://www.crusadebleedingscore.org/index.html)

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Stent thrombosis

    In-stent thrombosis will be assessed in 30-days time-frame in all patients included in the trial. -- due to inadequate power of the trial IST cannot be primary outcome measure--

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Aspirin 200mg qd, Clopidogrel 2x75mg qd in people with Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by University Hospital Ostrava at 2 sites in Czechia.

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 5 inclusion and 12 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 Oct 2016. 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 Czechia. 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?

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?

Platelet inhibition level (time frame: 5 days). 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 NCT01381185, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 Oct 2016.
