July 11, 2017 updated by: Moo Hyun Kim, Dong-A University

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.

Detailed Description

Prasugrel and ticagrelor are recommended in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Both prasugrel and ticagrelor show more rapid and potent antiplatelet effect compared with clopidogrel. However, previous report comparing the efficacy and safety of prasugrel and ticagrelor in patients with STEMI of East Asian ethnicity is lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study is to compare the antiplatelet efficacy and safety using laboratory platelet function tests and clinical outcomes in patients with STEMI treated with either prasugrel or ticagrelor.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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.

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
Number of Participants With High Platelet Reactivity
Time Frame: 48 hours after loading dose of study drug
Platelet reactivity were measured by VerifyNow (volumetrics accuretic，San Diego, California, USA), and vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) phosphorylation P2Y12 assay (BioCytex, Marseille, France) with FACSCalibur flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, California, USA) using. Measurement time gap +/- 12 hours were allowed. High platelet reactivity (HPR) is defined as the result of P2Y12 reaction units (PRU) >235 and platelet reactivity index (PRI) >50%.
48 hours after loading dose of study drug

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
Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events
Time Frame: 30 days
Any major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event including (death, myocardial infarction, or revascularization and stroke) until day 30.
30 days
Bleeding Event
Time Frame: 30 days
Any event related to bleeding including access site bleeding and peri-procedural bleeding based on Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) criteria.

Any adverse reaction related to study drug until 30 days after percutaneous coronary intervention.
30 days
Pre-procedure P2Y12 Reaction Units (PRU)
Time Frame: Baseline
Platelet reactivity was measured using VerifyNow (volumetrics accuretic, San Diego, California, USA). Platelet reactivity values were presented as P2Y12 reaction units (PRU).
Baseline
Number of Participants With Low Platelet Reactivity
Time Frame: 48 hours after loading dose of study drug
Platelet reactivity were measured using VerifyNow (volumetrics accuretic, San Diego, California, USA), and vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) phosphorylation P2Y12 assay (BioCytex, Marseille, France) with FACSCalibur flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, California, USA) using. Measurement time gap +/- 12 hours were allowed. Low platelet reactivity (LPR) is defined as the result of P2Y12 reaction units (PRU) <85 and platelet reactivity index (PRI)<16%. The PRU value for LPR, 18 patients were in prasugrel groups and 19 patients in ticagrelor groups, regarding the PRI value for LPR, 16 patients were in each groups.
