Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with CKD and with normal renal function

Who may be able to join

  • Patients presenting with moderate-high risk non-STEACS defined according the current guidelines
  • Patients received a loading dose or under chronic treatment with aspirin (100 mg per day) as per standard of care
  • Age between 18 and 80 years old
  • BMI between 18 and 35 kg/m2
  • Provide written informed consent prior to any study specific procedures

Who cannot join

  • History of hemorrhagic stroke or intracranial bleeding
  • Known allergies to aspirin, ticagrelor, or clopidogrel
  • On treatment with oral anticoagulation (Coumarin derivate, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban)
  • Hemoglobin <10 gm/dL
  • Platelet count <80x106/mL
  • Blood dyscrasias, active bleeding or hemodynamic instability.
Show all 13Show fewer
  • Patients on hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis, a change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) greater than 15 mL/min within 90 days prior to enrollment, or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) lower than 15 mL/min/1.73m2
  • Patients with known infectious diseases or neoplasia
  • Baseline ALT >2.5 times the upper limit of normal
  • Patients with sick sinus syndrome (SSS) or high degree AV block without pacemaker protection
  • Drugs interfering with 2C19 metabolism (to avoid interaction with clopidogrel): fluconazole (Diflucan), ketoconazole (Nizoral), voriconazole (VFEND), etravirine (Intelence), felbamate (Felbatol), fluoxetine (Prozac, Serafem, Symbyax), fluvoxamine (Luvox), and ticlopidine (Ticlid). Since omeprazole is the most used proton-pump inhibitor in our clinical environment, we will keep the same prescription rate in both groups to avoid differences results from this described interaction
  • Drugs interfering CYP3A4 metabolism (to avoid interaction with Ticagrelor): Ketoconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole, clarithromycin, nefazodone, ritonavir saquinavir, nelfinavir, indinavir, atazanavir, and telithromizycin

Read the detailed description

Dual antiplatelet therapy consisting in aspirin and clopidogrel is the cornerstone of the treatment of the prevention of the thrombotic events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), showing a reduction in adverse events . However, there is a considerable number of patients who continue to have recurrent ischemic events despite this regimen . In fact, in the last years several clinical factors have been associated with impaired clopidogrel-induced effects. Moreover, these clinical factors are strongly related with the presence of high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HPR), which is also associated with the occurrence of adverse thrombotic events, including stent thrombosis, despite correct treatment compliance. Diabetes mellitus, acute coronary syndromes, obesity or chronic kidney disease (CKD) are common examples . This observation encourages the search for new more potent antiplatelet therapies. A new P2Y12 receptor antagonist, ticagrelor, has been approved for clinical use . Ticagrelor is a new non-thienopyridine, a cyclopentyltriazolo-pyrimidine (CPTP), direct acting reversible P2Y12 antagonist. This compound has a more favorable pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) profile than clopidogrel , which has translated into better clinical outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in a recent large, international clinical trial . Interestingly, ticagrelor has showed an impressive clinical benefit in patients with CKD in comparison with those patients without renal impairment .

CKD is highly associated with an increased risk of atherothrombotic events, including stent thrombosis, in patients with CAD . PD studies have shown that patients with impaired renal function are characterized by reduced clopidogrel-induced antiplatelet effects and higher rates of HPR compared with patients with preserved renal function.

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. platelet reactivity units

    The primary endpoint is the comparison of the platelet reactivity units (PRU) values determined by VerfifyNow-P2Y12 system between normal renal function and CKD patients after 7±2 days of concomitant treatment with ticagrelor.

    Measured: 7+2 days of treatment

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. platelet reactivity profiles after loading dose of ticagrelor

    To evaluate platelet reactivity profiles after loading dose of ticagrelor using a 180 mg loading dose at 30 min, 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours, and comparing CKD to non-CKD patients as measured with VerifyNow-P2Y12 system.

    Measured: 30 min, 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours

  2. platelet reactivity profiles after 180 mg loading dose to ticagrelor usin MEA

    To analyze platelet reactivity profiles after 180 mg loading dose to ticagrelor using MEA, at 30 min, 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours and after 90 mg b.i.d maintenance dose of ticagrelor at 7±2 days.

    Measured: 30 min, 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours

  3. ticagrelor active metabolite levels

    To assess ticagrelor active metabolite levels after loading dose of ticagrelor using a 180 mg loading dose at 30 min, 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours, and comparing CKD to non-CKD patients.

    Measured: 30 min, 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease, run by Fundacion para la Formacion e Investigacion Sanitarias de la Region de Murcia at 1 site in Spain.

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 5 inclusion and 13 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 14 Dec 2017. 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 Spain. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Tello-Montoliu MD Antonio (atellomont@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

platelet reactivity units (time frame: 7+2 days of treatment). 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 14 Dec 2017.
