About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Prospective observationaL Study to evAluate the effecT of Clopidogrel on the prEvention of Major vascuLar Events According to the gEnotype of Cytochrome P450 2C19 in Ischemic Stroke paTients; PLATELET Study

The hypothesis of this study is that "the poor metabolizer or intermediate metabolizer of the cytochrome P450 2C19 genotype in patients with acute ischemic stroke is associated with increased risk of composite cardiovascular events (recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction, cardiovascular death) compared to those who of extensive metabolizer of the cytochrome P450 2C19 genotype".

Read the detailed description

Clopidogrel, one of the antiplatelet agents used for secondary prevention in patients with ischemic stroke and coronary artery disease, has been shown to have a superior antiplatelet effect compared to aspirin, and is therefore being administered to many patients with stroke and coronary artery disease. Clopidogrel inhibits platelet-derived ADP receptor, P2Y12, in the liver to produce an anti-platelet effect. It has been suggested that clopidogrel resistance could be occurred from drug-drug interaction via the same pharmacological metabolic pathway. Previous studies reported that the genotypes of Cytochrome P450 2C19, which is involved in the metabolism of clopidogrel in the liver, lead to differences in drug response and recurrence rates of cardiovascular disease. The risk of recurrence of ischemic stroke was reported to be about 4 times higher in patients with a poor metabolizer or intermediate metabolizer genotype of the Cytochrome P450 2C19 genotype compared to the extensive metabolizer genotype. This genotypes of Cytochrome P450 2C19 were also different according to race.

The researches about cytochrome P450 2C19 genotype and clopidogrel resistance have been conducted mainly in patients with coronary artery disease and are not known in stroke patients. Few studies have examined whether the resistance of clopidogrel according to the genotype of cytochrome P450 2C19 in stroke patients is related to the occurrence and/or recurrence of cardiovascular disease. The hypothesis of this study is that "the poor metabolizer or intermediate metabolizer of the cytochrome P450 2C19 genotype in patients with acute ischemic stroke is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality compared to those who of extensive metabolizer of the cytochrome P450 2C19 genotype".

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Ischemic Stroke, run by Gangnam Severance Hospital at 37 sites in South Korea.

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 8 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 25 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 37 sites in South Korea. 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?

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?

composite cardiovascular events (time frame: up to 6 months). 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 NCT04072705, which also lists 15 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 Sep 2023.
