About this study

Official title: Randomized Comparison of PPI Versus no PPI on Top of Standard Dose Clopidogrel Therapy in Patients Stratified Based on CYC2C19 Activity Via a Genetic Point of Care System.

This study aims to prospectively assess whether there is an interaction between genetic status in terms of 2C19 activity and residual platelet reactivity after clopidogrel intake in patients who underwent coronary stenting for elective, urgent or emergent intervention.

Read the detailed description

In managing patients who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), rapid and predictable platelet inhibition for all patients is an important therapeutic goal. Determining the optimal dose of antiplatelet therapy to achieve this goal has been hampered by considerable interpatient variability in response to clopidogrel, which largely reflects gene polymorphism. Most of the evidence is centred around cytochrome 450 2C19.

A substudy of TRITON TIMI 38 has recently shown that among persons treated with clopidogrel, carriers of a reduced-function CYP2C19 allele had significantly lower levels of the active metabolite of clopidogrel, diminished platelet inhibition, and a higher rate of major adverse cardiovascular events, including stent thrombosis, than did noncarriers (N Engl J Med 2009;360:354-62). As a contrary, common functional CYP genetic variants do not affect active drug metabolite levels, inhibition of platelet aggregation, or clinical cardiovascular event rates in persons treated with prasugrel (Circulation. 2009 May 19;119(19):2553-60).

More recently, it has been shown that CYP2C19*17 carrier status is significantly associated with enhanced response to clopidogrel and an increased risk of bleeding. (Circulation. 2010;121:512-518). Whether CYP2C19*17 carrier status enhances response to prasugrel is unknown.

Attention has also been placed on a potential interaction observed between clopidogrel and the widely used proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).

The CYP2C19 isoform is the key enzyme in the metabolism of many of the PPIs, which are also inhibitors of the CYP2C19 isoenzyme in varying degrees. This is important because the antiplatelet effects of clopidogrel rely, to a degree, upon CYP2C19 activity. However, the recent COGENT study and sub-analysis of the TRITON-TIMI 38 have both apparently mitigated this concern. Nevertheless, it is unknown whether PPI can father blunt response to clopidogrel especially in patients carrying the loss of function 2C19 allele.

A recent review paper (Aliment Pharmacol Ther 31, 810-823) included 23 studies covering 93,278 patients. There was substantial heterogeneity in the meta-analyses of major cardiovascular events (19 studies, I2 = 79%) or myocardial infarction (12 studies, I2 = 77%). Analysis of propensity-matched or randomized trial participants showed no associated cardiovascular risk with PPIs, whereas other observational studies generally showed a significant association.

Thus, still today there is an emerging need for more studies, especially prospective randomized studies, to investigate the effect of individual PPI agents on clopidogrel's effectiveness. Such studies should also include a genetic component to stratify response based on the presence of reduced-function alleles of the CYP2C19 enzyme

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximal platelet aggregation at light transmission aggregometry after 20 μmol/l ADP

    IPA expressed as maximal platelet aggregation (MPA) after 20 μmol/l ADP according to genetic stratum defined as follows: [(Poor metabolizers: 2C19*2+ and 2C19*17-); (intermediate metabolizers: wild type patients or its carrying both 2C19*2 and *170; (ultra metabolizers: 2c19*2- and 2C19*17+).

    Measured: 30 days

  2. maximal platelet aggregation after 5 μmol/l ADP in PPI versus no PPI treated patients

    Patients, stratified by genetic stratum, will be randomized to PPI or no PPI. We assume that that will be an interaction in the IPA after 5 μmol/l ADP at 30 days so that PPI will blunt responsiveness to clopidogrel in poor metabolizer patients only but in intermediate or ultra metabolizers.

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lansoprazole in people with Coronary Stenting, run by Università degli Studi di Ferrara at 1 site in Italy.

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 0 inclusion and 9 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 20 Jan 2012. 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 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 (0532326874 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?

Maximal platelet aggregation at light transmission aggregometry after 20 μmol/l ADP (time frame: 30 days). 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 20 Jan 2012.
