What is being measured

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

  1. Residual platelet reactivity by Platelet Reactivity Units (PRU) VerifyNow 1 hour after Ticagrelor/Prasugrel LD

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The percent of patients with a high residual platelet reactivity (PRU > 208) 1 hour, 4-6 hours after Ticagrelor/Prasugrel LD

    Measured: 4-6 hours

  2. Major, minor, minimal bleeding [ Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) criteria] events

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Occurrence of dyspnea and/or symptomatic bradycardia

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Chewing Ticagrelor LD and Chewing Prasugrel LD in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome and STEMI, run by Sheba Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 2 inclusion and 19 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 10 Jan 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 Israel. 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 Elad Asher, MD; MHA (+972-52-6667131, el.asher@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Residual platelet reactivity by Platelet Reactivity Units (PRU) VerifyNow 1 hour after Ticagrelor/Prasugrel LD (time frame: 1 hour). 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 10 Jan 2017.
