Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CILO groupExperimentalIntervention: Suspected patients with AMI were loaded with 600-mg clopidogrel and 300-mg aspirin in the emergency room. After 3 to 5 days post-PCI (before discharge), patients were randomly allocated to the CILO group or the placebo group (1:1 fashion) based on a computer-generated randomization sequence. For the CILO group, cilostazol-SR 200 mg daily was added to dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin (100 mg daily) and clopidogrel (75 mg daily). Study drug is maintained for 30 days. Double blinded, Randomized, Placebo controlled Trial. Drug: Cilostazol-SR, Tablet, 200mg, once daily. Astrix, Capsule, 100mg, once daily. Plavix, tablet, 75mg, once daily.
Receives: Drug: Cilostazol Tablets; Drug: Aspirin; Drug: Clopidogrel
Placebo groupPlacebo comparatorIntervention: Suspected patients with AMI were loaded with 600-mg clopidogrel and 300-mg aspirin in the emergency room. After 3 to 5 days post-PCI (before discharge), patients were randomly allocated to the CILO group or the placebo group (1:1 fashion) based on a computer-generated randomization sequence. In the Placebo group, placebo tablet was administered on top of dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin (100 mg daily) and clopidogrel (75 mg daily). Study drug is maintained for 30 days. Double blinded, Randomized, Placebo controlled Trial. Drug: Placebo, Tablet, 200mg, once daily. Astrix, Capsule, 100mg, once daily. Plavix, tablet, 75mg, once daily.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Cilostazol Tablets, Aspirin and Clopidogrel in people with Myocardial Infarction, Acute, run by Gyeongsang National University Hospital.

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 14 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 29 May 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

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?

Changes from baseline CD133+/KDR+ at 30 days (time frame: baseline and 30 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04407312, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 29 May 2020.
