About this study

Official title: Pharmacogenomics of Anti-platelet Intervention-2 (PAPI-2) Study: A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Trial of Genotype-directed (G-D)Versus Standard of Care (SOC)Anti-platelet Therapy

It is standard treatment to take anti-platelet medication after cardiac catheterization and stent placement to help prevent the formation of blood clots that may cause heart attack or stroke. The most commonly used anti-platelet medicine is clopidogrel (Plavix®). However, researchers have found that people vary in their response to clopidogrel, in part because of differences in their genes. Prasugrel (Effient®)is another anti-platelet medication used to prevent clots. The genetic differences that affect clopidogrel response do not affect prasugrel response. Recently, the FDA added a warning to the label of clopidogrel to notify doctors and patients with certain genetic differences may not get the full benefit from clopidogrel. Despite this, genetic testing for these variations is not usually done in standard medical practice. The purpose of this study is to see if patients with certain gene differences have fewer major cardiac events after stent placement if they are given anti-platelet therapy guided by their individual genetic type compared to standard anti-platelet therapy.

Read the detailed description

Over a three-year period, a total of 7,200 patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in whom dual anti-platelet therapy is indicated for at least one year and meet the eligibility criteria, will be recruited from five or more clinical sites. Patients presenting to the cardiac clinics, emergency departments, catheterization laboratories, and other acute care units (e.g. CCU) who will have coronary angiography or have had angiography and PCI will be offered participation. Following informed consent, patients will have baseline data and specimens collected, and eligibility confirmed. Patients will be randomized in equal numbers to the G-D arm or SOC arm. Immediately following randomization, a blood sample from patients assigned to the G-D arm will be sent for CYP2C19 genotype analysis. Upon receipt of CYP2C19 genotype results, patients randomized to the G-D arm with the CYP2C19 *1/*1 genotype (extensive metabolizers) and *1/*17, and *17/*17 genotypes (ultrarapid metabolizers) will receive clopidogrel 75 mg/day plus aspirin 81-162 mg/day (group a). Those with *1/*2, *1/*3, *2/*17, and *3/*17 genotypes (intermediate metabolizers) and those with *2/*2, *2/*3, and *3/*3 genotypes (poor metabolizers) will receive prasugrel 5-10 mg/day plus aspirin 81-162 mg/day (group b). Patients randomized to the SOC arm will not be genotyped prospectively. They will receive dual anti-platelet therapy guided by the judgment of their treating physician according to standard medical practice irrespective of genotype (group c). Optionally, a subgroup of patients will return at 10 days after the randomization visit for platelet aggregation studies.

If our hypothesis is correct, i.e., that in intermediate and poor metabolizers, G-D anti-platelet therapy results in fewer cardiovascular events and has less or equivalent bleeding complications compared to SOC therapy, and is cost effective, this prospective randomized clinical trial will provide the evidence base to implement genotype-directed anti-platelet treatment algorithms broadly into clinical practice.

What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence of Post-randomization Cardiovascular Events

    Cardiovascular events include non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, definite or probable stent thrombosis (ARC definition) and death secondary to any cardiovascular cause.

    Measured: One year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Occurrence of Bleeding Events

    Bleeding events will classified by the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium definition. The number of bleeding events will be tabulated.

    Measured: One year

  2. Post-treatment Platelet Aggregation

    Platelet aggregation will be performed on a subset of subjects using VerifyNow P2Y12 which measures platelet reactivity due to the effect of a P2Y12. Values less than 180 P2Y12 Reaction Units (PRU) suggest evidence of a P2Y12 inhibitor effect. Platelet aggregation studies are optional and will not be used to modulate antiplatelet therapy.

    Measured: 10 days

  3. Health Care Resource Utilization and Cost-effectiveness

    Measured: One year

  4. Occurrence of Adverse Events

    The number of subjects reporting any AEs will be tabulated.

    Measured: One year

  5. Composite of All-cause Death, Myocardial Infarction (MI), Stroke and Repeat Revascularization

    Measured: One year

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 14 inclusion and 16 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites 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 28 Jun 2016). 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?

Occurrence of Post-randomization Cardiovascular Events (time frame: One year). 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 NCT01452152, 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 16 Mar 2022.
