Clinical Significance of Platelet Reactivity on Clopidogrel During Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass

October 7, 2013 updated by: Yonsei University

Objective: To evaluate the early and late prognoses of patients according to platelet reactivity after clopidogrel administration and determine whether the measurement of platelet inhibition predicted 1-year clinical outcomes after off-pump coronary bypass (OPCAB) Study design

  • Prospective, observational, single-center study
  • Subjects with OPCAB surgery who meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled.
  • Platelet reactivity after 7-days clopidogrel treatment from the day of surgery will be measured by VerifyNow system.
  • Dual antiplatelet therapy including aspirin and clopidogrel will be administered for 1 year after surgery and subjects will be followed-up for 1 year about primary endpoint.
  • Cutoff value of P2Y12 reactivity units (PRUs) for primary endpoint will be assessed and the cohort will be divided by the PRU cutoff value (low/high platelet reactivity groups).
  • The primary and secondary endpoints will be compared between two groups

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

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

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

19 years to 80 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with indications for surgical myocardial revascularization
  • Patients who undergo off-pump coronary artery bypass
  • Age between 19~80 years
  • Patients with signed informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with combined surgery with coronary bypass grafting
  • On-pump conversion
  • Patients with moderate renal dysfunction (creatinine>2.0mg/dl) or need for dialysis

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Low platelet reactivity group
Platelet reactivity will be measured after 7-days treatment of clopidogrel by VerifyNow system and the cohort will be divided by two group according to P2Y12 reactivity unit (PRU) cutoff value. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves will be plotted to assess the optimal PRU cutoff value for differentiating between patients with and without subsequent MACEs after 1 year of follow-up. Low platelet reactivity indicates good response to clopidogrel and high platelet reactivity, resistance to clopidogrel. Groups will be "Low platelet reactivity group" and "High platelet reactivity group"
Drug: Dual antiplatelet therapy including aspirin and clopidogrel after off-pump coronary bypass surgery
aspirin 100mg/day and clopidogrel 75mg/day, PO, from the day of surgery for 1 year
high platelet reactivity group
Platelet reactivity will be measured after 7-days treatment of clopidogrel by VerifyNow system and the cohort will be divided by two group according to P2Y12 reactivity unit (PRU) cutoff value. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves will be plotted to assess the optimal PRU cutoff value for differentiating between patients with and without subsequent MACEs after 1 year of follow-up. Low platelet reactivity indicates good response to clopidogrel and high platelet reactivity, resistance to clopidogrel. Groups will be "Low platelet reactivity group" and "High platelet reactivity group"
Drug: Dual antiplatelet therapy including aspirin and clopidogrel after off-pump coronary bypass surgery

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
Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs)
Time Frame: 1 year after off-pump coronary bypass surgery
The primary endpoint of the study was the 1-year incidence of MACEs, which included the following: (1) cardiac death, defined as death in the presence of acute coronary syndrome, sudden cardiac arrest with documented cardiac arrhythmia, or refractory congestive heart failure; 2) nonfatal MI; and (3) target vessel revascularization in relation to platelet reactivity as measured by the VerifyNow system.

Primary Completion (Actual)

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.
