Trial summary

Prasugrel has a faster onset of action and greater platelet inhibition with less inter-individual response variability than clopidogrel. Japan and Taiwan are the only two nations where adjusted/Asian dose of prasugrel (loading dose (LD)/maintenance (MD): 20/3.75 mg) was approved for clinical use. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Platelet Reactivity After an Eastern Asian Loading Dose of Prasugrel in Taiwanese Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction: PREP-TAMI Study

Prasugrel has a faster onset of action and greater platelet inhibition with less inter-individual response variability than clopidogrel. Japan and Taiwan are the only two nations where adjusted/Asian dose of prasugrel (loading dose (LD)/maintenance (MD): 20/3.75 mg) was approved for clinical use. However, there is no data regarding the effectiveness of adjusted dose of prasugrel on platelet reactivity in Taiwanese patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study aim to evaluate the pharmacodynamic of the Asian dose prasugrel on the platelet reactivity after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for patients with ACS.

Read the detailed description

Rationale and Background Prasugrel provides more potent and rapid platelet inhibition compared to Clopidogrel.

Rapid and effective inhibition of the platelet P2Y12 receptor is of pivotal importance in patients with AMI who undergo PCI.

Prasugrel (60 mg loading and 10 mg/day maintenance dose) is a new generation P2Y12 inhibitor that achieves greater and faster platelet inhibition comparing with clopidogrel in patients undergoing PCI.

As revealed by 2 head-to-head studies, reducing Prasugrel dosages to 20/3.75 LD/MD (mg) was still efficacious but led to less bleeding events than the original 60/10 LD/MD (mg).

In TRITON-TIMI 38 trial, prasugrel was associated with not only significantly less ischemic events but also more non-CABG TIMI major bleeding, as compared to Clopidogrel.

In the PRASFIT-ACS study from Japan (20 mg loading and 3.75 mg/day maintenance dose), prasugrel was associated with a 23% reduction of MACE and the incidence of non-CABG major bleeding was similar to clopidogrel.

There is NO data regarding the effectiveness of Japanese loading dose of prasugrel on platelet reactivity in Taiwanese patients with AMI.

This study use PRU for efficacy and ISTH major bleeding for safety evaluations; the anticipated results are prompt and effective platelet inhibition as well as comparably low bleeding rate.

What participants receive

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

  • P2Y12-reaction-units (PRU) by VerifyNow-P2Y12 assayDiagnostic test

    The efficacy endpoint was platelet reactivity, of which was serially assessed using the VerifyNow-P2Y12 assay and the results were expressed as P2Y12-reaction-units (PRU).

What is being measured

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

  1. platelet reactivity (PRU) after loading of prasugrel at 12 hours

    PRU 12 hours after a loading dose

    Measured: 12 hours

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. platelet reactivity (PRU) after loading of prasugrel at 1 hour

    PRU 1 hour after a loading dose

    Measured: one hour

  2. platelet reactivity (PRU) after loading of prasugrel at 3 hours

    PRU 3 hours after a loading dose

    Measured: 3 hours

  3. platelet reactivity (PRU) after loading of prasugrel at 48 hours

    PRU 48 hours after a loading dose

    Measured: 48 hours

  4. ISTH Major bleeding

    the definition recommended by the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) defines major bleeding as fatal bleeding; symptomatic bleeding in a critical area or organ such as intracranial, intraspinal, intraocular resulting in vision changes, retroperitoneal, intraarticular, pericardial

    Measured: day 7 after a loading dose of prasugrel

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing P2Y12-reaction-units (PRU) by VerifyNow-P2Y12 assay in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome and Hemorrhage, run by Feng Yuan Hospital, Ministry of Health and Welfare at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 26 Feb 2021. 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 Taiwan. 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 Ms. Hao-Yien Pan (+88625271180 ext. 2400, shine75726@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

platelet reactivity (PRU) after loading of prasugrel at 12 hours (time frame: 12 hours). 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 26 Feb 2021.
