Prasugrel/Clopidogrel Maintenance Dose Washout Study

Completed · Phase 4

Conditions studied: Coronary Artery Disease

In brief

The primary objective of the study is to describe the cumulative proportion of participants who return to baseline platelet P2Y12 receptor function over time (up to 12 days post last maintenance dose) following discontinuation of prasugrel 10 mg daily x 7 days assessed by Accumetrics VerifyNow P2Y12 reaction units (PRU) and described by Kaplan Meier curves. The primary analysis is descriptive and is intended to provide information relating to the return of baseline platelet function following discontinuation of maintenance therapy with either prasugrel or clopidogrel.

You may qualify if…

• Male or female subjects >/= 18 years and <75 years of age
• Weight >/= 60 kg
• On aspirin therapy (81 mg to 325 mg daily) at the time of screening and able to maintain a consistent aspirin dosing regimen from the baseline visit through the final study visit
• Subjects who do not have contraindications for a thienopyridine (ie, prasugrel, clopidogrel or ticlopidine), and have a history of stable atherosclerosis represented by Coronary Artery disease, defined as any of the following:
• chronic stable angina
• Prior history of acute coronary syndrome (>/= 30 days before screening) including unstable angina or acute myocardial infarction (ST elevation Myocardial Infarction [STEMI] or non-ST elevation Myocardial Infarction [NSTEMI]), not currently prescribed or currently on thienopyridine therapy;
• Previous coronary revascularization including percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA), stent, or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) coronary artery disease (>/= 50% obstruction) in at least one coronary vessel after angiography
• Female subjects who meet one of the following:
• Women of childbearing potential with a negative serum pregnancy test at screening who are not breast feeding, do not plan to become pregnant during the study, and agree to use an approved method of birth control during the study. Approved methods of birth control are oral, path, injectable or implantable hormonal contraception, intrauterine device, diaphragm plus spermicide, or female condom plus spermicide. Abstinence, partner's use of condoms, and partner's vasectomy are NOT acceptable methods of contraception.
• Women who have been postmenopausal for at least 1 year or have had a hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, or tubal ligation at least 6 months prior to signing the informed consent form.
• Subjects with a competent mental condition to provide written informed consent before entering the study.

You may not qualify if…

• Any other formal indication for the use of a thienopyridine.
• Subjects with a history of refractory ventricular arrhythmias.
• Subjects with a history of an implantable defibrillator device.
• Subjects with a history or evidence of congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association [NYHA] Class III or above) within 6 months prior to screening.
• Subjects with significant hypertension (systolic blood pressure >180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure >110 mmHg) at either the time of screening or baseline assessment.
• Bleeding Risk Exclusion Criteria:
• Any known contraindication to treatment with an anticoagulant or antiplatelet agent
• Prior history or clinical suspicion of cerebral vascular malformations, intracranial tumor, transient ischemic attack (TIA), or stroke, or recent history (within 3 months) of head trauma
• Prior history or presence of significant bleeding disorders (eg, hematemesis, melena, severe or recurrent epistaxis, hemoptysis, hematuria, or intraocular bleeding)
• History (within the last 5 years) or presence of gastric ulcers. Previous history of duodenal ulcer is acceptable but must have been successfully surgically or medically treated with no further evidence of disease in the past 6 months (from screening).
• Prior history of abnormal bleeding tendency (ie, prolonged bleeding on dental extraction, tonsillectomy, or previous surgical procedure)
• Known prior history of thrombocytopenia (platelet count < 100,000/mm³) or thrombocytosis (platelet count > 500,000/mm³) or recent history (within six months) of hemoglobin < 10 mg/dL
• Clinically significant out of range values for prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), platelet count, or hemoglobin at screening, in the investigator's opinion
• History of major surgery, severe trauma, fracture, or organ biopsy within 3 months prior to enrollment
• Prior/Concomitant Therapy Exclusion Criteria:
• Subjects taking prasugrel, clopidogrel, ticlopidine, cilostazol, dipyridamole, warfarin, heparin, direct thrombin inhibitors, or glycoprotein IIB/IIIa inhibitors =10 days prior to screening or during study participation
• The use (or planned use) of fibrinolytic agents within 30 days before screening or during study participation
• Subjects receiving treatment with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors exceeding 3 doses per week
• Subjects receiving proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), eg, (lansoprazole, esomeprazole, omeprazole, pantoprazole, or rabeprazole) =10 days prior to screening or during study participation

• Daiichi Sankyo or Eli Lilly employees
• Currently enrolled in, or discontinued within the last 30 days prior to baseline from, a clinical study involving an off-label use of an investigational drug or device, or concurrently enrolled in a non-observational clinical study or any other type of medical research judged not to be scientifically or medically compatible with this study
• Have previously completed or withdrawn from this study
• Women who are known to be pregnant and/or who receive a positive serum pregnancy test result, who have given birth within the past 90 days, and/or who are breastfeeding
