About this study

Objective: To evaluate the early and late prognoses of patients according to platelet reactivity after clopidogrel administration and determine whether the measurement of platelet inhibition predicted 1-year clinical outcomes after off-pump coronary bypass (OPCAB) Study design

  • Prospective, observational, single-center study
  • Subjects with OPCAB surgery who meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled.
  • Platelet reactivity after 7-days clopidogrel treatment from the day of surgery will be measured by VerifyNow system.
  • Dual antiplatelet therapy including aspirin and clopidogrel will be administered for 1 year after surgery and subjects will be followed-up for 1 year about primary endpoint.
  • Cutoff value of P2Y12 reactivity units (PRUs) for primary endpoint will be assessed and the cohort will be divided by the PRU cutoff value (low/high platelet reactivity groups).
  • The primary and secondary endpoints will be compared between two groups

What participants receive

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

  • Dual antiplatelet therapy including aspirin and clopidogrel after off-pump coronary bypass surgeryDrug

    aspirin 100mg/day and clopidogrel 75mg/day, PO, from the day of surgery for 1 year

Study groups in NCT01959191
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Low platelet reactivity groupPlatelet reactivity will be measured after 7-days treatment of clopidogrel by VerifyNow system and the cohort will be divided by two group according to P2Y12 reactivity unit (PRU) cutoff value. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves will be plotted to assess the optimal PRU cutoff value for differentiating between patients with and without subsequent MACEs after 1 year of follow-up. Low platelet reactivity indicates good response to clopidogrel and high platelet reactivity, resistance to clopidogrel. Groups will be "Low platelet reactivity group" and "High platelet reactivity group"

What is being measured

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

  1. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs)

    The primary endpoint of the study was the 1-year incidence of MACEs, which included the following: (1) cardiac death, defined as death in the presence of acute coronary syndrome, sudden cardiac arrest with documented cardiac arrhythmia, or refractory congestive heart failure; 2) nonfatal MI; and (3) target vessel revascularization in relation to platelet reactivity as measured by the VerifyNow system.

    Measured: 1 year after off-pump coronary bypass surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease, run by Yonsei University 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 4 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 9 Oct 2013. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) (time frame: 1 year after off-pump coronary bypass surgery). 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 NCT01959191, 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 9 Oct 2013.
