Comparison of Prasugrel and Clopidogrel in Low Body Weight Versus Higher Body Weight With Coronary Artery Disease (FEATHER)

July 27, 2012 updated by: Eli Lilly and Company

A Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Comparison of Prasugrel and Clopidogrel in Low Body Weight Versus Higher Body Weight Aspirin-Treated Subjects With Stable Coronary Artery Disease

The 5-milligram (mg) dose of prasugrel in low body weight (LBW) patients with coronary artery disease produces a pharmacodynamic response within the same therapeutic range as 10-mg dose in higher body weight (HBW) patients.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Maximum Platelet Aggregation (MPA) to 20 Micromolar (µM) Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) at Day 12 (Period 1)
Time Frame: Baseline, Day 12
MPA to 20 micromolar (μM) ADP was assessed by light transmission aggregometry (LTA), an assay that measures platelet aggregation by determining the amount of light transmitted through a cuvette containing platelet-rich plasma stimulated with a platelet activator, such as ADP, relative to platelet-poor plasma (100% light transmittance). A lower MPA reflects stronger platelet inhibition, whereas a higher MPA reflects weaker inhibition.
Baseline, Day 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Vasodilator-Associated Stimulated Phosphoprotein (VASP) at Day 12 of Therapy
Time Frame: Baseline, Day 12
VASP phosphorylation levels, expressed as the platelet reactivity index (PRI), reflect the degree of thienopyridine-mediated P2Y12 receptor inhibition and were used to compare prasugrel versus clopidogrel, in low body weight (LBW) participants compared to higher body weight (HBW) participants. PRI was calculated by VASP. The PRI indicates the level of P2Y12 receptor inhibition. A lower PRI reflects stronger inhibition of P2Y12 receptor thus stronger platelet inhibition, whereas a higher PRI reflects weaker inhibition of P2Y12 receptor and weaker platelet inhibition.
Baseline, Day 12
Change From Baseline in VerifyNow® P2Y12 Reaction Units (PRU) at Day 12 of Therapy
Time Frame: Baseline, Day 12
The Accumetrics VerifyNow® P2Y12 assay measures platelet aggregation in whole blood and is reported in PRU. PRU indicates the extent of P2Y12 receptor-mediated platelet aggregation calculated as a function of rate and extent of platelet aggregation in an adenosine phosphate (ADP)-containing channel of the device. A lower PRU reflects stronger inhibition of platelet aggregation, whereas a higher PRU reflects weaker inhibition of platelet aggregation.
Baseline, Day 12
Pharmacokinetic (PK) Analysis of the Concentration-Time Curve (AUC)
Time Frame: baseline (pre-dose) up to 4 hours post-dose
A pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) analysis comparing MPA (LTA) and AUC was conducted as originally intended, however the graphic output is not possible here. Therefore, the PK portion is presented here as AUC and the PD portion is presented in Secondary Outcome Measure #5. AUC was calculated through the last scheduled sampling time of 4 hours [AUC (0-4)] or through the sampling time of the last quantifiable concentration prior to 4 hours. AUC values were denoted AUC(0-tlast) in both instances.
baseline (pre-dose) up to 4 hours post-dose
Change From Baseline in Maximum Platelet Aggregation (MPA) as Measured by Light Transmission Aggregometry (LTA) at Day 12 of Therapy
Time Frame: Baseline , Day 12
MPA to 20 micromolar (μM) adenosine diphosphate (ADP) was assessed by LTA, an assay that measures platelet aggregation by determining the amount of light transmitted through a cuvette containing platelet-rich plasma stimulated with a platelet activator, such as ADP, relative to platelet-poor plasma (100% light transmittance). A lower MPA reflects stronger platelet inhibition, whereas a higher MPA reflects weaker inhibition.

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
