About this study

Official title: Customized Choice of P2Y12 Oral Receptor Blocker Based on Phenotype Assessment Via Point of Care Testing

A subset of patients recruited in the main MATRIX study will be randomized after intervention but before discharge to standard of care (the treating physician will decide which oral P2Y12 inhibitor will be added on top of aspirin) versus a customized approach based on an algorithm which integrates phenotypic information, including but not limited to residual on-treatment platelet reactivity assessed via VerifyNow P2Y12 Assay.

Read the detailed description

Up to 20-30% of clopidogrel treated patients do not adequately respond to the drug and are at higher risk for ischemic events including death, myocardial infarction, stroke and stent thrombosis.

Residual high on-treatment platelet reactivity while the patient is on clopidogrel depends on a complex interplay of phenotypic (spontaneous platelet reactivity, inflammatory status, acuity of the clinical presentation, age, renal function) and genetic variables.

Two main Loss of function alleles have been identified: 1) CYP450 2C19*2 is present in around 25% of the Caucasian population and result in a lower amount of clopidogrel active metabolite. Carriers of 2C19*2 are at higher risk for death or MI and 2.7 fold increase in the risk of stent thrombosis if treated with conventional clopidogrel; 2) ABCB-1 C carriers have reduced clopidogrel absorption and they have similarly been shown to be at higher risk for ischemic adverse events if treated with clopidogrel. Many investigators have recently shown however, that the positive predictive value of genetic testing alone at the time of PCI is limited and the knowledge of genetic status alone with respect to the two previously described loss of function alleles is only poorly able to identify to long-term clopidogrel poor responders. An Algorithm has therefore been developed, combining phenotype information which has been shown to risk stratify both ischemic and bleeding events up to one year follow-up in PCI patients.

This algorithm has been developed from a single center retrospective registry. To prospectively validate it in the context of a prospective multicenter study, the first 320 patients recruited in the present study will undergo phenotype at discharge and at 30 days and genotype assessment at the time of randomization, irrespective of the group which they have been assigned to (i.e. standard of care or gene and phenotype). The hypothesis behind this mechanistic sub-study is that the use of this combined phenotype-genotype algorithm will increase the proportion of patients at 30 days who will be in the therapeutic range according to PRU values from 50% in the standard of care versus 70% in the gene and phenotype group.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke or BARC defined bleeding type 2, 3 or 5

    The time to first occurrence of any of the variables listed above will be reported as primary study outcome.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Proportion of patients in the therapeutic range for residual P2Y12 pathway activity according to PRU values.

    We expect that the prospective use of the previously generated combined phenotype and genotype algorithm will result in an higher proportion of patients being in the therapeutic range with respect to the P2Y12 residual activity (70%) as compared to patients in who the P2Y12 inhibitor is left to the discretion of the treating physician. The first 320 patients recruited in the present study will participate into this mechanistic sub-study.

    Measured: 30 days

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in Italy. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Marco Valgimigli, MD, PhD (3356478877 ext. +39, vlgmrc@unife.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke or BARC defined bleeding type 2, 3 or 5 (time frame: 1 year). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01477775, which also lists 4 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 3 Sep 2014.
