About this study

Official title: Ticagrelor vs. Tirofiban, Comparison of Anti-platelet Effects in Patients With Non-ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome(TE-CLOT Trial : Ticagrelor's Effect for CLOT Prevention) ; A Single Center, Open-label Randomized Controlled Study

This is a single-center, open-label prospective randomized pharmacodynamic investigation of two anti platelet regimens in patients who are planned to undergo PCI for non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome(NSTE-ACS) for 24 hours

  1. Ticagrelor : loading dose(180mg) followed by maintenance dose(90mg bid)
  2. Tirofiban : 0.4ug/kg/min for 30min followed by 0.1ug/kg/min
  • both agents will be given on top of aspirin
Read the detailed description

In combination with aspirin, P2Y12 receptor antagonist or glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor(GPI) is now a recommended drug as the standard dual antiplatelet regimen in patients with acute coronary syndrome(1).

Ticagrelor is a newly developed oral P2Y12 receptor inhibitor. It shows faster, greater and more consistent platelet inhibition as compared with previous P2Y12 receptor antagonist clopidogrel(2) and it also shows better clinical outcome and similar risk for bleeding as compared with clopidogrel(3).Interestingly, pharmacodynamic data of some studies showed excellent effect of ticagrelor in terms of inhibiting platelet activation apparently as high as that of GPI(2,4).

Primary hypothesis: Ticagrelor have a comparable efficacy in platelet inhibition to GPI in patients with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome.

    Measured: 24 hours

  3. periprocedural bleeding

    Periprocedural bleeding will be monitored and described according to BARC and TIMI definition

  4. Peak cardiac enzyme level

    From blood samples at 0, 2H, 8H and 24H, CK-MB and Troponin I will be measured

    Measured: 0~24 hours

  5. Percentage IPA after TRAP, arachidonic acid, collagen at 2 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Tirofiban and Ticagrelor in people with Non-ST Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by Pusan National University Yangsan Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 6 inclusion and 14 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 18 Dec 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 South Korea. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 June Hong Kim, MD,PhD (+82-10-8231-7171, junehongk@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage IPA after 20µmol/l ADP at 2 hour (time frame: 2 hours). 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 NCT01660373, which also lists 5 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 18 Dec 2012.
