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.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with a history of stable coronary artery disease who are not currently indicated for treatment with a thienopyridine (that is, prasugrel, clopidogrel, or ticlopidine)
  • Provision of written informed consent
  • For women of child-bearing potential only (that is, women who are not surgically or chemically sterilised and who are between menarche and 1 year post menopause), test negative for pregnancy (based on a urine or serum pregnancy test to be performed before randomisation) and agree to use a reliable method of birth control during the study

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Unstable coronary artery disease
  • Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) or Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (CABG) within the previous 90 days
  • History of refractory ventricular arrhythmias within the last 6 months; an implanted defibrillator device; congestive heart failure within 6 months prior to screening; major surgery, or severe trauma, fracture or organ biopsy within 3 months prior to enrollment
  • Any planned surgical procedure or any coronary revascularisation (surgical or percutaneous) planned within 60 days following randomisation
  • Any known contraindication to treatment with an antiplatelet agent
  • Significant hypertension at the time of screening or randomisation
  • Clinically significant out-of-range values for platelet count or haemoglobin at screening, in the investigator's opinion, or results of clinical laboratory tests at the time of screening that are judged to be clinically significant for the study population, as determined by the investigator
  • Prior history or presence of significant bleeding disorders, abnormal bleeding tendency, or personal history of coagulation or bleeding disorders.
  • Prior history or clinical suspicion of cerebral vascular malformations, intracranial neoplasm, Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) or stroke.
  • Prior history of thrombocytopenia or thrombocytosis
  • Use of antiplatelet agents (besides aspirin) within 10 days prior to screening; the use (or planned use) of heparin, oral anticoagulants, or fibrinolytic agents within 30 days of screening; or subjects receiving daily treatment with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) or cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors that cannot be discontinued for the duration of the study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

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

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.
