CES1 Crossover Trial of Clopidogrel and Ticagrelor

May 3, 2024 updated by: Joshua Lewis, University of Maryland, Baltimore

Impact of Genetic Variation in CES1 on Antiplatelet Therapy

The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate when genetic variation in the carboxylesterase 1 (CES1) gene influences antiplatelet therapy response, as assessed by ex vivo platelet aggregometry, in healthy participants treated with clopidogrel and ticagrelor. We hypothesize that genetic variation in CES1 will significantly impact on-clopidogrel platelet aggregation while having a minimal effect in ticagrelor-treated subjects.

Specific Aim: To conduct a prospective randomized crossover study of clopidogrel and ticagrelor in healthy individuals stratified by CES1 genotype. Participants will be recruited by CES1 genotype into a randomized crossover study of clopidogrel (75 mg daily for 7d) and ticagrelor (90 mg twice daily for 7d) with extensive phenotyping including ex vivo platelet aggregometry performed pre- and post-drug administration in order to assess the interaction of genotype and drug choice on on-treatment platelet function.

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 in Maximal Platelet Aggregation in Response to Clopidogrel
Time Frame: 8 days of exposure to clopidogrel (change from baseline at day 8 reported)
Ex vivo platelet aggregometry was performed in platelet rich plasma (PRP) after stimulation with 20 μM adenosine diphosphate (ADP) at 2 time points (at baseline prior to drug administration and on the 8th day of clopidogrel [75mg/d]). Maximum platelet aggregation is recorded by the platelet aggregometer as a percentage. Data shown below represent the maximum platelet aggregation value obtained at baseline minus the maximum platelet aggregation value obtained after clopidogrel administration. Thus, values recorded below represent changes from baseline at day 8 and the unit is percent maximum aggregation. Higher reported values represent a greater reduction in platelet aggregation while lower reported values signify a smaller reduction in platelet aggregation when comparing baseline and post-clopidogrel visits.
8 days of exposure to clopidogrel (change from baseline at day 8 reported)
Change in Maximal Platelet Aggregation in Response to Ticagrelor
Time Frame: 8 days of independent exposure to ticagrelor (change from baseline at day 8 reported)
Ex vivo platelet aggregometry was performed in platelet rich plasma (PRP) after stimulation with 20 μM adenosine diphosphate (ADP) at 2 time points (at baseline prior to drug administration and on the 8th day of ticagrelor [90 mg twice daily]). Maximum platelet aggregation is recorded by the platelet aggregometer as a percentage. Data shown below represent the maximum platelet aggregation value obtained at baseline minus the maximum platelet aggregation value obtained after ticagrelor administration. Thus, values recorded below represent changes from baseline at day 8 and the unit is percent maximum aggregation. Higher reported values represent a greater reduction in platelet aggregation while lower reported values signify a smaller reduction in platelet aggregation when comparing baseline and post-ticagrelor visits.

Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?

YES

IPD Plan Description

It is possible that deidentified data will be deposited into large public databases as per NIH data sharing policies (e.g. database of Genotypes and Phenotypes [dbGAP], Pharmacogenomics Knowledgebase [PharmGKB]). Data to be shared would include, but not limited to, anthropometric data, study outcome data, and relevant covariate data used in statistical models of association. It is anticipated that data would be available after the completion of the trial. The data will be obtained from the participants and the study-related research procedures.
