Phase III, Randomized, International, Multicenter, Open label, with Blinded Adjudication of Outcomes, Non-Inferiority Clinical Trial to Explore the Safety and Efficacy of Ticagrelor Compared with Clopidogrel in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome with ST Elevation Treated with Pharmacological Thrombolysis.
- Conditions
- Acute ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction, Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction Flow
- Being tested
- Ticagrelor 180 mg, Clopidogrel
- Medical subject headings
- ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Ticagrelor 180 mgDrug
Also called Ticagrelor
Ticagrelor, 180 mg as early as possible after the index event and not >24 h post event followed by 90 mg twice daily for 12 months.
ClopidogrelDrug
300 mg clopidogrel as early as possible after the index event and not > 24h post event, followed by 75mg/day for 12 months.
For patients with > 75 years the recommended load dose is 75 mg instead 300 mg.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Ticagrelor 180 mg | Active comparator | Patients assigned to Ticagrelor will receive oral Ticagrelor, 180 mg as early as possible after the index event and not >24 h post event followed by 90 mg twice daily for 12 months. Receives: Drug: Ticagrelor 180 mg |
| Clopidogrel | Active comparator | Patients will take the 300 mg clopidogrel as early as possible after the index event and not > 24h post event, followed by 75mg/day for 12 months.
For patients with > 75 years the recommended load dose is 75 mg instead 300 mg. Receives: Drug: Clopidogrel |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Safety Outcome as a measure of Time to TIMI-defined first major bleeding
The primary safety endpoint is time to TIMI-defined and adjudicated first major bleeding event (including major life-threatening bleeding and other major bleeding).
Bleeding TIMI Definition
Major:
Any intracranial hemorrhage (ICH)*, OR Clinically significant overt signs of hemorrhage associated with a drop in hemoglobin (Hgb) of ≥ 5 g/dL (or, when Hgb is not available, an absolute drop in hematocrit (Hct) of ≥ 15%).
An independent blinded central adjudication committee will adjudicate all suspected primary end points.
Measured: 30 days
Secondary outcomes (2)
Efficacy Outcome as a measure of major cardiovascular events
Secondary efficacy combined endpoint: death from vascular causes, myocardial infarction, stroke, severe recurrent ischemia, recurrent ischemia, TIA, or other arterial thrombotic event.
We will also measure the individual outcomes all-cause mortality and need for rescue PCI, as well as individual components of the combined efficacy endpoint.
Measured: 12 months
Safety Outcome as a measure of bleeding event
Secondary safety endpoints: Total bleeding (major and minor) according to PLATO, TIMI and BARC definitions, minor bleeding according to the TIMI definition and major bleeding as individual endpoint according to the PLATO definition. Others safety variables will include: dyspnea, arrhythmia, bradycardia and laboratory safety tests
Measured: 12 months

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?
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?
Safety Outcome as a measure of Time to TIMI-defined first major bleeding (time frame: 30 days). 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 NCT02298088, which also lists 3 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 15 Feb 2019.
