Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety aspirin in patients with chronic coronary syndromes without revascularization.

Description:

Aspirin for secondary prevention in the acute phase of acute coronary syndromes has been established. Although it is still disputable about the duration, there is also a consensus for antiplatelet therapy in patients after percutaneous coronary revascularization. On the other hand, several large randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have shown that aspirin treatment for primary prevention of cardiovascular events increases bleeding events and does not provide net clinical benefit.Patient with chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) but not eligible for revascularization do not belong to any of these categories and there is no evidence on the efficacy of aspirin in this population. Therefore, we designed a multicenter, randomized, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of aspirin in patients with CCS who are not eligible for revascularization.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Composite cardiovascular events	Composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, coronary revascularization, peripheral revascularization, or critical limb ischemia	5 years
Secondary	All-cause death	As classified by Academic Research Consortium (ARC) (Circulation. 2007;115:2344-2351).; Cardiac Death: Any death due to proximate cardiac cause, unwitnessed death and death of unknown cause, all procedure related deaths including those related to concomitant treatment. All deaths are considered cardiac unless an unequivocal non-cardiac cause can be established. Specifically, any unexpected death even in subjects with coexisting potentially fatal non-cardiac disease should be classified as cardiac.; Vascular Death: Death due to non-coronary vascular causes such as cerebrovascular disease, pulmonary embolism, ruptured aortic aneurysm, dissecting aneurysm, or other vascular cause.; Non-cardiovascular Death: Any death not covered by the above definitions such as death caused by infection, malignancy, sepsis, pulmonary causes, accident, suicide or trauma.; Cancer related death: death from cancer cause	5 years
Secondary	Myocardial infarction	As classified by Academic Research Consortium (ARC): However, the sensitivity is too high for the evaluation with Troponin of the peri-procedural MI, thus CKMB will be used.	5 years
Secondary	Ischemic stroke	Ischemic stroke is defined as acute onset of a neurological deficit that persists for at least 24 hours and is the result of a disturbance of the cerebral circulation due to ischemia. Deficits that last = 24 hours are due to transient ischemic neurological attack and are not classified in this category.	5 years
Secondary	Coronary revascularization	The revascularization that meets the following criteria is considered as clinically indicated revascularization. Presence/absence of clinical findings is judged by the operator of the procedure before the revascularization.	5 years
Secondary	Peripheral revascularization	The revascularization that meets the following criteria is considered as clinically indicated revascularization. Presence/absence of clinical findings is judged by the operator of the procedure before the revascularization.	5 years
Secondary	Critical limb ischemia	Critical limb ischemia is defined by chronic ischemic pain at rest and/or presence of ischemic skin lesions (gangrene or ulcerations).	5 years
Secondary	Cardiovascular death	Cardiac Death: Any death due to proximate cardiac cause (e.g. myocardial infarction [MI], low-output failure, fatal arrhythmia), unwitnessed death and death of unknown cause, all procedure related deaths including those related to concomitant treatment. All deaths are considered cardiac unless an unequivocal non-cardiac cause can be established. Specifically, any unexpected death even in subjects with coexisting potentially fatal non-cardiac disease (e.g. cancer, infection) should be classified as cardiac.; Vascular Death: Death due to non-coronary vascular causes such as cerebrovascular disease, pulmonary embolism, ruptured aortic aneurysm, dissecting aneurysm, or other vascular cause.	5 years
Secondary	Major bleeding	Bleeding/Hemorrhagic Complications will be evaluated using the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) definition. Major bleeding is defined as BARC 3 or 5.	5 years
Secondary	Hospital admission for heart failure	An unplanned hospitalization with heart failure. Heart failure is defined by the modified Framingham criteria as follow: [Major Criteria] 1) Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea 2) Orthopnea 3) Neck-vein distension 4) Rales 5) Acute pulmonary edema [Minor Criteria]; Ankle edema; Dyspnea on exertion; Pleural effusion; Tachycardia (HR ? 120/min) * For establishing a definite diagnosis of heart failure, 2 Major criteria or 1 major and 2 minor criteria must be present concurrently	5 years
Secondary	Cancer incidence	Non-metastatic cancer (not present prior to randomization); Metastatic cancer (cancer that was metastatic at presentation, metastasis of a non-metastatic cancer presents at baseline, or blood cancer) Non-melanoma skin cancer was excluded cancer end points.	5 years
Secondary	Cancer death	Cancer death is defined as death from cancer cause.	5 years
Secondary	Composite of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, coronary revascularization, lower extremity revascularization, critical lower extremity ischemia, major bleeding, hospital admission for heart failure, cancer death	Composite of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, coronary revascularization, lower extremity revascularization, critical lower extremity ischemia, major bleeding, hospital admission for heart failure, cancer death	5 years
