About this study

Official title: Bedside Testing of the CYP2C19 Gene to Asses Effectiveness of Clopidogrel in Coronary Artery Disease Patients Treated With Percutaneous Coronary Intervention : Individualized Antiplatelet Drugs Treatment to Improve Prognosis

Clopidogrel is crucial as antiplatelet treatment in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation and during one year after PCI, to prevent atherothrombotic complications. However, clopidogrel is ineffective in certain patients due to genetic mutation in CYP2C19 gene a specific enzyme in the liver required for metabolism of clopidogrel. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to test these patients genetically at bedside and prescribe an alternative drug such as Ticagrelor (90 mg twice daily) or prasugrel ( 10mg once daily or 5mg once daily if the patient older than 75 years or a body weight < 60kg) if they are carriers of the allele 2 or 3 of the mutated gene.

Read the detailed description

Clopidogrel is crucial as antiplatelet treatment in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation and during one year after PCI, to prevent atherothrombotic complications. Clopidogrel is converted into its active metabolite by Cytochrome P2C19 (CYP2C19). However 30 % of the Saudi population is carrier of the non functional CYP2C19*2 or *3 alleles having an impaired CYP2C19 capacity, resulting in decreased effectiveness of Clopidogrel. These patients have a 42% higher risk for major cardiovascular events (MACE) compared to non carriers. Further 50 % of the MACE occurs in the first 48 hours. Therefore Ticagrelor (90 mg twice daily) or prasugrel ( 10mg once daily or 5mg once daily if the patient older than 75 years or a body weight < 60kg) whose actions are not dependent on conversion by CYP2C19 may be an alternative only in carriers of the non functional CYP2C19*2 or *3 alleles. This might be cost effective and prevent patients form MACE. Therefore the objective of this study is to assess the efficacy, complication free survival, safety and cost-effectiveness of the CYP2C19 genotype guided antiplatelet treatment strategy, using clopidogrel or prasugrel (or Ticlid). All participants will be followed for one year using follow up questionnaires.

What participants receive

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

  • clopidogrelDrug

    Also called Clavix

    Genotyping will be carried out using Spartan genotyping System on all intervention group and those patients who do not carry the CYP2C19 allele 2 or 3 will be given clopidogrel (75 mg per day) while all patients who carry the CYP2C19 allele 2 or 3 will be prescribed Ticagrelor (90 mg twice daily) or prasugrel ( 10mg once daily or 5mg once daily if the patient older than 75 years or a body weight < 60kg) according to local protocol.

  • Ticagrelor or prasugrelDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. cardiovascular event

    The primary end point is the number of patients who develop adverse major cardiovascular event which include recurrent myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, cardiovascular mortality, severe ischemia, major bleeding at 30days after PCI.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Mortality

    Secondary efficacy endpoints are the number of patients who either died , died from cardiovascular death, from cerebrovascular death, developed recurrent MI, stent thrombosis, underwent urgent target vessel revascularization, developed stroke or combination of above

    Measured: 30 days and 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing clopidogrel and Ticagrelor or prasugrel in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Myocardial Infarction, run by Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University at 4 sites in Saudi Arabia.

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 2 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 22 Jan 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Saudi Arabia. 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 Amein K Al-Ali, PhD (+966505821693, ameinomran@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

cardiovascular event (time frame: 1 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 NCT01823185, 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 22 Jan 2016.
