About this study

Official title: Comparison of The Influence of Ticagrelor And Clopidogrel on Inflammatory Biomarkers And Vascular Endothelial Function For Patients With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Receiving Emergency Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

  1. Ticagrelor inhibits inflammation and improves vascular endothelial cell function to a greater extent than clopidogrel in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI) patients receiving percutaneous coronary intervention.
  2. Ticagrelor can reduce the serum levels of inflammatory biomarkers both in coronary and in peripheral venous in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).
Read the detailed description

Platelet participates in the process of forming and extending atherosclerotic plaques, and it is also a source of inflammatory mediators. This study is a randomized, open-label study, designed to test the hypothesis that ticagrelor inhibits inflammation and improves vascular endothelial cell function to a greater extent than clopidogrel in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI) patients receiving percutaneous coronary intervention. Patients who are scheduled to undergo emergency Percutaneous Coronary Intervention(PCI) will be randomly assigned to receive ticagrelor 180mg for treatment group or clopidogrel 600mg for control group ,then after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention(PCI) treatment group treated with ticagrelor 90mg twice daily while the control group received clopidogrel 75mg once a day . All patients should receive Acetylsalicylic Acid(ASA) 300 mg as a loading dose before Percutaneous Coronary Intervention(PCI) then 100 mg daily unless intolerant. Glycoprotein Ⅱb/Ⅲa receptor antagonists and low-molecular-weight heparin and other additional medication will be directed by the treating cardiologist. All interventions will be performed via the radial approach with the standard technique within 12h after they are involved, and drug-eluting stents will be placed according to stenosis of coronary artery.

The vascular endothelial function will be tested by Circulating Endothelial Cells (CECs) and levels of inflammation will be tested by CD40 ligand (CD40L), C-reactive protein (CRP), and P-selectin to identify that ticagrelor inhibits inflammation and improves vascular endothelial cell function to a greater extent than clopidogrel.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ticagrelor and Clopidogrel in people with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction, run by Jinan Central Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 7 inclusion and 15 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 25 Feb 2015. 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 China. 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 Su Guohai, Doctor (+86(0)13370582008, guohaisu@medmail.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

CD40 Ligand(CD40l)/C-reactive protein(CRP)/P-selectin and Circulating Endothelial Cells(CECs) (time frame: 0 -4 weeks). 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 NCT02123004, which also lists 2 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 25 Feb 2015.
