About this study

Official title: "Pharmacodynamic Comparison of Omeprazole Versus Pantoprazole on Platelet Reactivity in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes on Dual Antiplatelet Therapy With New P2Y12 Inhibitors"

Clopidogrel and Prasugrel are pro-drug necessitating conversion in active metabolites through CYP 450 system (CYP), particularly CYP3A and CYP2C19 isoforms.

These drugs are platelet purinergic receptor antagonists, known as P2Y12. The link between active metabolite of Clopidogrel and Prasugrel to P2Y12 receptor prevents ADP receptor activation and inhibits several events leading to conformational change of platelets, therefore facilitating their activation and aggregation, that is the basis of acute coronary syndromes. Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are actually considered principal agents reducing gastroenteric bleeding risk associated to antiplatelet therapy. Nevertheless the interaction between PPI and antiplatelet therapy has been object of interest. Several studies demonstrated PPI reduce efficacy of clopidogrel on platelet reactivity. Only few data about Prasugrel are available showing a minor effect of PPI on its antiplatelet activity than clopidogrel. Differing from prasugrel and clopidogrel, ticagrelor is a direct inhibitor of P2Y12, not necessitating biotransformation in the liver; therefore its interaction with PPI remains unclear. Interaction between omeprazole and clopidogrel seems related to high inhibitory activity of PPI on CYP2C19, interfering with the conversion of clopidogrel in its active metabolite.

Despite double antiplatelet drugs are the principle therapy for the treatment and the prevention of atherothrombotic events in cardiovascular diseases, they are the most important cause of bleeding peptic ulcer. Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are actually considered principal agents reducing gastroenteric bleeding risk associated to antiplatelet therapy. Nevertheless the interaction between PPI and antiplatelet therapy has been object of interest. Several studies demonstrated PPI reduce efficacy of clopidogrel on platelet reactivity, probably through the inhibition of its metabolism, increasing the risk of cardiovascular events. Only few data about Prasugrel are available showing a minor effect of PPI on its antiplatelet activity than clopidogrel. Differing from prasugrel and clopidogrel, ticagrelor is a direct inhibitor of P2Y12, not necessitating biotransformation in the liver; therefore its interaction with PPI remains unclear. Nevertheless actual studies considered only clinical outcomes (MACEs), such as a subgroup analysis of the Platelet Inhibition and Patient Outcomes (PLATO) trial, showing a higher rate of MACEs in clopidogrel and Ticagrelor patients undergone PPI therapy, especially omeprazole treatment. Interaction between omeprazole and clopidogrel seems related to high inhibitory activity of PPI on CYP2C19, interfering with the conversion of clopidogrel in its active metabolite. It is yet unclear the higher rate of MACEs in the ticagrelor group, similarly to clopidogrel, despite it hasn't a hepatic metabolism.

What participants receive

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

  • Pantoprazole,Drug

    Also called pantorc

    os, 20 mg, once per day, for 30 days

  • OmeprazoleDrug

    Also called lansox

    os, 20 mg, once per day, for 30 days

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of platelet reaction units

    Absolute changes in platelet reactivity (expressed as P2Y(12) reaction units by the point-of-care VerifyNow assay [Accumetrics, San Diego, California]

    Measured: After 30 days of treatment with each drug

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Frequency of high platelet reactivity

    Frequency of high platelet reactivity with the 2 study treatments (as defined by a Platelet Reaction Unit value>240

    Measured: After 30 days of treatment with each drug

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Pantoprazole, and Omeprazole in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by University of Roma La Sapienza 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 8 Jan 2014. 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 MD MARINA POLACCO (+393333347960, dott.mpolacco@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assessment of platelet reaction units (time frame: After 30 days of treatment with each drug). 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 8 Jan 2014.
