Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Optimal Antithrombotic Therapy for ACS Patients Concomitant With AF and Implanted With New-generation DES (OPTIMA-3, 4)

Start date: February 3, 2018
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

It is a multi-center randomized clinical trial (RCT) which will enroll 3746 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) concomitant non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and undergoing new generation drug eluting stent (DES) implantation at 70 centers nationwide in China and contains two sub-studies. In the OPTIMA-3 sub-study, 2274 subjects who choose warfarin as anticoagulant will randomly receive triple antithrombotic therapy (warfarin with targeted INR 2.0-3.0, clopidogrel 75 mg od and aspirin 100 mg od) for 1 month or 6 months in a 1:1 ratio then quit aspirin till 12 months after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The primary endpoint of the OPTIMA-3 is a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, systemic thromboembolism and unplanned revascularization up to 12 months; the major secondary endpoint is the International Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis (ISTH) major bleeding or clinically relevant non-major bleeding (CRNMB). In the OPTIMA-4 sub-study, 1472 subjects who prefer dabigatran will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to a dual antithrombotic therapy of dabigatran 110 mg twice daily with ticagrelor 90 mg twice daily or with clopidogrel 75 mg od for 12 months after PCI. The primary safety endpoint of the OPTIMA-4 is ISTH major bleeding or CRNMB at 12 months; the primary efficacy endpoint is a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, systemic thromboembolism and unplanned revascularization. Other secondary endpoints comprise death (cardiovascular, non- cardiovascular), MI (fatal or non-fatal, Q-wave or non-Q-wave), unplanned revascularization (target or non-target vessel, target or non-target lesion), stent thrombosis (possible, probable, definite), stroke (hemorrhage or ischemic), all bleeding (ISTH and BARC criteria) and net adverse events. All endpoints will be collected and compared between subgroups and sub-studies during hospitalization and in 1 month (± 7 days), 6 months (± 7 days) and 12 months (± 7 days) for office visits and in 2 weeks (± 7 days), 2 months (± 7 days) and 3 months (± 7 days) for phone call visits.

The Effect of IV Cangrelor and Oral Ticagrelor Study

Start date: July 21, 2016
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Major heart attacks are caused by a number of factors, the two major of which are furring up of a coronary artery with atheroma and then sudden clot formation on this area leading to a blockage and interruption of blood flow. The clots that lead to heart attacks are largely made of clotting blood cells (platelets) that in health repair blood vessels and inhibit spontaneous bleeding. One of the main treatment strategies for heart attacks is to make these cells less "sticky". Aspirin is a main stay of anti-platelet treatment in the United Kingdom (UK) and in addition one of three other oral antiplatelet agents acting on the same platelet activation pathway (P2Y12 receptor) is licensed for use. When a patient is admitted with a major heart attack, they are treated with emergency primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) a technique where a wire and balloon are used to reopen the coronary artery and then usually a stent (a slotted metal tube) is placed to keep the artery open. Aspirin and one of the P2Y12 inhibitor agents are given to prevent further clots and all have been shown to reduce negative events following heart attacks and angioplasty with stent insertion. There are increasing data, including from our own institution, showing that in the setting of heart attacks, the oral P2Y12 inhibitors are poorly absorbed and have little effect at the time of most need, i.e. soon after dosing while the primary PCI is being performed. All three current P2Y12 inhibitor agents are taken in tablet form immediately before the emergency PPCI procedure. It appears that in healthy stable patients these agents take at least 30 min to 2 hours to have an adequate effect. In heart attack patients the angioplasty procedure is usually performed well within this timescale. Furthermore, patients who are having a heart attack do not have normal drug absorption with blood being diverted away from the stomach and gut activity being suppressed by other drugs such as morphine. In this current study, patients with major heart attacks will be given our standard oral agent, Ticagrelor, or the newer intravenous agent Cangrelor prior to PPCI.

Determination of the Role of Oxygen in Suspected Acute Myocardial Infarction by Biomarkers

DETO2X-bio
Start date: October 2014
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Oxygen treatment is widely used in acutely ill patients, both pre-hospital and in hospital. The indication for oxygen is sometimes unquestionable, such as in many hypoxic patients, but in other situations its use is more of a practise and much less based on scientific evidence. In particular, oxygen treatment is routinely used in patients with a suspected heart attack and variably recommended in guidelines, despite very limited data supporting a beneficial effect. Indeed, a few studies even indicate that oxygen treatment might be harmful. Immediate re-opening of the acutely blocked artery to the heart muscle is the treatment of choice to limit permanent injury. However, the sudden re-initiation of blood flow achieved with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), the reopening and stenting of the blocked vessel, can give rise to further endothelial and myocardial damage, so-called reperfusion injury. Ischemia and reperfusion associated myocardial injury (IR-injury) involves a wide range of pathological processes. Vascular leakage, activation of cell death programs, thrombocytes and white blood cells leading to extended inflammation and formation of clots are examples of those effects. The role of oxygen treatment on these pathological processes, on the extent of IR-injury and the final infarct size in patients with acute myocardial infarctions (AMI) has not previously been studied. In an ongoing national multicentre, randomized, registry based clinical trial, the DETO2X-AMI trial (NCT01787110), the effect of oxygen on morbidity and mortality in ACS patients is being investigated. The present DETO2X-biomarkers study is a substudy of the DETO2X-AMI trial, evaluating the effect of oxygen treatment on biological systems involved in the pathogenesis of reversible and irreversible myocardial damage and cell death in ACS.
