E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
A Platelet function testing guided approach with a short-term (1 week) post hospital discharge prasugrel maintenance dose treatment and a switch-over to clopidogrel treatment in adequate responders to the drug is non-inferior to the currently recommended long-term (12 month) treatment with prasugrel in ACS patients undergoing PCI. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
- Bleeding events with a grade >= 2 defined according to BARC criteria
- Stent thrombosis (definite or probable) according to ARC (Academic Research Consortium) criteria
- Incidence of death from any cause
- Pre-specified cost-effectiveness analysis on the economic impact of a platelet function testing guided tailored treatment for ACS patients
- The individual ischemic components of the primary endpoint will be subject to the secondary endpoint analysis
|
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
- Patients with troponin positive ACS
- Successful PCI (defined as a post PCI diameter stenosis <20% and TIMI flow >=2)
- A planned treatment of prasugrel for 12 month after the procedure
- Written informed consent |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
- Age < 18 years and > 80 years
- Subjects with known contraindications to clopidogrel treatment, which are hypersensitivity to the drug substance or any component of the product and active pathological bleeding such as peptic ulcer or intracranial hemorrhage
- Subjects with known contraindications to prasugrel treatment, which are hypersensitivity to the drug substance or any component of the product, active pathological bleeding such as peptic ulcer or intracranial hemorrhage and a history of prior transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke
- Subjects with a history of complocated or prolonged cardiogenic shock in the last two weeks prior to the beginning of this clinical trial. A complicated or prolonged cardiogenic shock is defined bya cardiogenic shock that required mechanical ventilation or cardiovaxcular support with positive inotropic drugs (i.v. catecholamins) for >=7days.
- Subjects requiring concomitant treatment with an anticoagulant agent (Vitamin-K antagonists or novel oral anticoagulants such as rivaroxaban, dabigatran or apixaban)
- Indication for major surgery (per decision of the treating physician) for the planned duration of the study
- Simultaneous participation in another clinical trial or participation in any clinical trial that involves the administration of an investigational medicinal drug within 30 days prior to the beginning of this clinical trial
- Known or persistent abuse of medication, drugs or alcohol
- Current or planned pregnancy or nursing women, women 90 days after childbirth. Females of childbearing potential, who do not use and are not willing to use medically reliable methods of contraception for the entire study duration (such as oral, injectable, or implantable contraceptives, or intrauterine devices) unless they are surgically sterilized/hysterectomized or there are any other criteria considered sufficiently reliable by the investigator`s opinion
- Evidence of significant active neuropsychiatric disease, in the investigator´s opinion |
|
E.5 End points |

- Pre-specified cost-effectiveness analysis on the economic impact of a platelet function testing guided tailored treatment for ACS patients
- The individual ischemic components of the primary endpoint will be subject to the secondary endpoint analysis
-- Incidence of cardiovascular death at 12 month
-- Incidence of MI at 12 month
-- Incidence of nonfatal stroke at 12 month
