Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43873   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7292   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    E.1.2Classification code 10011099
    E.1.2Term Coronary disease
    E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
    E.2 Objective of the trial
    E.2.1Main objective of the trial
    To investigate the effect of treatment with a high bolus dosage of Tirofiban (in addition to Aspirin, Heparin and 600mg clopidogrel) on CK-MB elevation, compared to Aspirin, Heparin and 600mg clopidogrel alone in patients resistant to aspirin and/or clopidogrel.
    E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
    1. To investigate the relationship between the degree of platelet inhibition reached immediately before intervention and the degree of CK/CK-MB and/or troponin I or T elevation after intervention.
    2. To investigate the effect of treatment with a high bolus dosage of tirofiban (in addition to Aspirin, Heparin and 600mg clopidogrel) on the incidence of myocardial infarction defined as elevation of CK-MB ≥3 times the upper limit of normal or cTnI elevation more than ≥3 times the upper limit of normal and on Thrombotic Bail-out therapy after the start of PCI.
    E.2.3Trial contains a sub-study No
    E.3Principal inclusion criteria
    1.Patients will be enrolled only if there is a reasonable expectation that PCI will be conducted within 2 hours. [Patients should be CK-MB negative (to avoid CK washout with revascularization) and also cTnI/T negative, whereas any other marker of high risk, including TIMI or GRACE high risk score will not lead to patient exclusion
    2.All consecutive patients with stable or unstable coronary artery disease showing aspirin and/or clopidogrel resistance (AR) will be enrolled. These include:
    Patients with clinical indication to undergo angiography for possible revascularisation.
    Patients with AR in whom catheter-based coronary intervention is planned based on previous angiogram.
    Patients with AR, presenting with non-ST segment elevation ACS (NSTEACS), independent of TIMI risk score or presence of high-risk features according to ESC guidelines (except for cTnI/T elevation).
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1.Patients who can not give informed consent or have a life expectancy of <1 year
    2.Evolving or Ongoing myocardial infarction (MI) (Persistence of or developing Q wave or ST segment elevation at ECG with or without typical chest pain or typical rapid rise and fall CK-MB or new LBBB)
    3.cTnI/T positive or increased beyond upper limit of normal according to local laboratory
    4.Administration of any GP IIb/IIIa receptor antagonist, anticoagulation, or lytic therapy in the previous 30 days
    5.Serum creatinine 2.5 mg/dl (221 mol/L)
    6.Ongoing bleeding or bleeding diathesis or contraindication for anticoagulation or increase bleeding risk or history of bleeding in the last 1 year
    7.Previous stroke or TIA or any intracranial pathology in the last six months
    8.Major surgery or trauma within the previous six weeks
    9.Platelet count <100.000 per cubic mm or HCT ,33% or Hb <11 gm/dL
    10.Subjects who received low-molecular-weight heparin within the 24 hours prior to randomization
    11.Subjects with an allergy or intolerance to aspirin, heparin, clopidogrel, or tirofiban
    12.Patients with severe hypertension (SBP>180 mm Hg or DBP >110 mm Hg) or in cardiogenic shock (SBP 80 mm Hg or below for >30 minutes) or requiring IABP
