Anti-platelet Therapy clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Safety of Platelet Transfusion in Patients on Antiplatelet Therapy With Traumatic Head Injury

PUNCH

Start date: June 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to determine if the administration of platelets will improve outcome in patients with ICH who are being treated with either aspirin, a thienopyridine (ticlodipine, clopidogrel, prasugrel) or a combination of both. The study has four specific aims: 1. To determine what affect platelet administration will have on bleeding in the brain. 2. To determine what affect platelet administration will have on brain function. Several assessments to test the functioning of the brain will be performed at enrollment and throughout the study. Comparing the results of these assessments between the experimental and control groups should allow us to determine if platelet administration improves outcomes in patients with bleeding in the brain exposed to antiplatelet therapy. 3. An important risk of reversing antiplatelet therapy is exposing the patient to the very complications this therapy was designed to prevent. Therefore, tracking complications will be a very important part of this study. The investigators will compare the rates of death, heart attack, stroke and clots in the veins between groups. 4. Some patients (10-40%) have limited responsiveness to antiplatelet therapy. While platelet responsiveness, as measured by a special platelet blood test, will not affect enrollment, the investigators feel it will be important to measure.
