About this study

Official title: Clinical Assessment of Pidogrel® Versus Plavix®

This study aims to demonstrate non-inferiority of Pidogrel ® compared to Plavix ® in patients with coronary disease:

  • Primary Outcome Measures: measure of platelet reactivity by VerifyNow assay after 600 mg loading dose or after the last maintenance dose (75 mg).
  • Secondary Outcome Measures: Time to first occurrence of major cardio-vascular events (MACE).
  • Safety Criteria: severe bleeding (GUSTO scale).
Read the detailed description

after randomization of patients in both groups (Plavix or Pidogrel), the measure of platelet activity by the VerifyNow assay, 4 to 12 hours after the loading dose of 600mg or after the last dose of clopidogrel for patients on maintenance dose. The VerifyNow assay will determine: - The PRU:-P2Y12 Reaction Units-

-% Of platelet inhibition It will be considered low responder or clopidogrel resistant patient with PRU> 235 or %inhibition <15%.

Monitoring of patients included in the study will take place over a period of 12 months, MACE will be notified and dated. MACE criteria are: angina, myocardial infarction, coronary angioplasty, coronary artery bypass graft, and stroke.

Each hemorrhagic event will be notified and classified according to the GUSTO scale.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Pidogrel and Plavix in people with Coronary Disease, run by Les Laboratoires des Médicaments Stériles at 1 site in Tunisia.

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 18 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 9 Sep 2011. 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 Tunisia. 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?

- study the respective effects of Pidogrel ® and Plavix ® on platelet aggregation through the test VerifyNow ® - Time to first occurrence of post-randomization major adverse cardiac events (MACE) (time frame: 06 months). 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 9 Sep 2011.
