About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Multicenter, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Tirofiban Using a High-Dose Bolus Plus a Shortened Infusion Duration Versus Label-Dosing Eptifibatide in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

The purpose this study is to assess whether a tirofiban regimen of a high-dose bolus plus a shortened infusion duration compared to label-dosing eptifibatide in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with a non-inferior composite rate of death, PCI-related myocardial infarction, urgent target vessel revascularization or in-hospital major bleeding within 48 hours following PCI or hospital discharge, whichever comes first.

Being tested
Short Tirofiban, Eptifibatide, Long Tirofiban
Medical subject headings
Myocardial Infarction, Acute Coronary Syndrome, Angina, Unstable

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

    Also called Integrilin

    180 mcg/kg bolus followed by a 2.0 mcg/kg/min infusion for 12 to 18 hours, with a second 180 mcg/kg bolus 10 min after the first.

What is being measured

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

  1. The Composite Endpoint of Death, Periprocedural Myonecrosis (PPM), Urgent Target Vessel Revascularization (uTVR) or Major Bleeding

    The composite of death (any-cause), periprocedural myonecrosis (defined as ≥ 3 times the upper limit of normal troponin and at least 20% or greater than the baseline troponin value), urgent target revascularization (repeat PCI or any CABG procedure after the index PCI on a non-selective basis in the target vessel because of recurrent myocardial ischemia) or non-CABG related major bleeding as quantified according to REPLACE-2 bleeding criteria.

    Measured: 48 hours or hospital discharge, whichever came first

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. The Composite Endpoint of Death, Periprocedural Myonecrosis or Urgent Target Vessel Revascularization

    The composite of death (any-cause), periprocedural myonecrosis (defined as ≥ 3 times the upper limit of normal troponin and at least 20% or greater than the baseline troponin value), or urgent target revascularization (repeat PCI or any CABG procedure after the index PCI on a non-selective basis in the target vessel because of recurrent myocardial ischemia)

    Measured: 48 hours or hospital discharge, whichever came first

  2. Individual Components of Death, Urgent Target Revascularization or Major Bleeding

    Individual components of death (any-cause), urgent target revascularization (repeat PCI or any CABG procedure after the index PCI on a non-selective basis in the target vessel because of recurrent myocardial ischemia) or non-CABG related major bleeding as quantified according to REPLACE-2 major bleeding criteria.

    Measured: 48 hours or hospital discharge, whichever came first

  3. Individual Components of Periprocedural Myonecrosis

    Individual components of periprocedural myonecrosis (PPM) (defined as ≥ 3 times, ≥ 10 times, ≥ 20 times or ≥ 50 times the upper limit of normal troponin and at least 20% or greater than the baseline troponin value)

    Measured: 48 hours or hospital discharge, whichever came first

  4. The Composite Endpoint of Death, Periprocedural Myonecrosis (PPM) (≥ 10x Troponin), Urgent Target Vessel Revascularization (uTVR) or Major Bleeding

    The composite of death (any-cause), periprocedural myonecrosis (defined as ≥ 10 times the upper limit of normal troponin and at least 20% or greater than the baseline troponin value), urgent target revascularization (repeat PCI or any CABG procedure after the index PCI on a non-selective basis in the target vessel because of recurrent myocardial ischemia) or non-CABG related major bleeding as quantified according to REPLACE-2 bleeding criteria.

    Measured: 48 hours or hospital discharge, whichever came first

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Short Tirofiban, Eptifibatide and Long Tirofiban in people with Myocardial Infarction and Acute Coronary Syndromes, run by Medicure at 13 sites in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 8 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 13 May 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 20 Apr 2021). 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?

The Composite Endpoint of Death, Periprocedural Myonecrosis (PPM), Urgent Target Vessel Revascularization (uTVR) or Major Bleeding (time frame: 48 hours or hospital discharge, whichever came first). 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 13 May 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
