Trial summary

Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor reduces thrombotic events in patients with coronary artery disease, but these benefits come at the expense of increased risk of bleeding when compared with aspirin monotherapy. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Ticagrelor and Clopidogrel on Platelet Effects in Chinese Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease: a Randomized, Single-blind, Crossover Clinical Study

Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor reduces thrombotic events in patients with coronary artery disease, but these benefits come at the expense of increased risk of bleeding when compared with aspirin monotherapy. Increased evidence showed that P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy still maintain antiischemic efficacy while reducing the bleeding risk compared with DAPT. Therefore, the investigators performed this study to observe the efficacy of ticagrelor in comparison to clopidogrel in Chinese patients with stable CAD.

Read the detailed description

Ticagrelor is a novel, direct-acting, reversibly binding P2Y12 receptor antagonist. When related with clopidogrel, ticagrelor exhibits a more potent and more predictable antiplatelet effect with a faster onset and offset of action. Current guidelines give a recommendation on the use of dual antiplatelet therapy support ticagrelor 90 mg twice daily over clopidogrel 75 mg daily in addition to aspirin in CAD patients. However, increasing evidence showed ticagrelor increased the risk of bleeding. Recent studies showed that P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy still maintain antiischemic efficacy while reducing the bleeding risk compared with DAPT. So the investigators performed this randomized, single-blind, crossover clinical trial to observe the effects of standard-dose ticagrelor and standard-dose clopidogrel on platelet reactivity in Chinese patients with stable CAD.

What is being measured

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

  1. The platelet inhibition ratio

    Thromboelastogram was used to measure platelet inhibition ratio.

    Measured: up to 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The platelet aggregation ratio.

    Light transmittance aggregometry method was used to measure platelet aggregation ratio.

    Measured: up to 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ticagrelor 90mg and Clopidogrel 75mg in people with Platelet Reactivity, run by First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University 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 5 inclusion and 6 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jan 2022. 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?

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?

The platelet inhibition ratio (time frame: up to 3 months). 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 11 Jan 2022.
