About this study

Official title: Low-dose Prasgurel Versus Clopidogrel on the Dual Antiplatelet Regimen for Intracranial Stenting or Flow Diverter Treatment for Unruptured Cerebral Aneurysms: a Multi-center Randomized Controlled Trial

Low clopidogrel response has been reported in about 5-44% of the total population, which is associated with an increase in thromboembolism.

Recently prasugrel drug widely accepted as a good option for these patients. The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and usefulness of prasugrel versus clopidogrel in patients who are scheduled to undergo stent or diverter treatment for non-ruptured cerebral aneurysms.

Read the detailed description

Unruptured intracranial aneurysm (UIA) is a relatively common disease with a prevalence of about 1% of the total population. Widely accepted techniques of neuro-interventional therapy are coil embolization with or without stent deployment and flow diverter insertion. However, these two techniques inevitably had the risk of thromboembolism. For prevention and decrease, dual antiplatelet therapy is commonly used in the clinical field. However, clopidogrel does not produce normal metabolites due to various internal and external factors in the metabolic process in the liver and eventually fails to perform its original role of platelet activity suppression in many situations, called "clopidogrel hyporesponsive". Low clopidogrel response has been reported in about 5-44% of the total population, which is associated with an increase in thromboembolism.

Recently prasugrel drug widely accepted as a good option for these patients. The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and usefulness of prasugrel versus clopidogrel in patients who are scheduled to undergo stent or diverter treatment for non-ruptured cerebral aneurysms.

What participants receive

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

  • Prasugrel groupDrug

    Also called effient

    Prescribe the drugs according to the assigned group, and take them 5 days before the procedure. Perform platelet function test (VerifyNow assay; Accumetrics, San Diego, California) one day before the procedure to check the P2Y12 reaction reactivity. And the hyporesponsive group patient is given prasugrel 5mg once. And aspirin 100mg and prasugrel 5mg will be maintained for 30 days.

  • Clopidogrel groupDrug

    Also called plavix

    Prescribe the drugs according to the assigned group, and take them 5 days before the procedure. Perform platelet function test (VerifyNow assay; Accumetrics, San Diego, California) one day before the procedure to check the P2Y12 reaction reactivity. And the hyporesponsive group patient is given pletaal 100mg once. And aspirin 100mg and clopidogrel 75mg mg will be maintained for 30 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. peri-procedural thromboembolic complications

    • thromboembolism detected during the neurointerventional procedure
    • transient ischemic attack or ischemic stroke or death with evidence of infarction on diffusion weighted imaging, which occurs within 30-days after procedure
    • incidence of treatment-thromboembolic, TIA and death events.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. thromboembolic safety endpoint

    • Ischemic stroke on relevant arterial territory within 30days after procedure or any stroke
    • Diffusion restriction lesion detected on post-procedure 7 days MRI
    • incidence of treatment-ischemic stroke on relevant territory and DWI lesion detected.

    Measured: 30days

  2. bleeding safety endpoint

    major and minor bleeding within 30days after procedure

    :: incidence of treatment-major and minor bleeding

    Measured: 30days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Prasugrel group and Clopidogrel group in people with Intracranial Aneurysm, run by Yonsei University at 1 site 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 3 inclusion and 15 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 15 Jul 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 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.

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 Chang Ki Jang (82-031-5189-8484, changgeejang@yuhs.ac), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

peri-procedural thromboembolic complications (time frame: 30 days). 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 15 Jul 2022.
