Filter by:Primary objective: to evaluate the efficacy and safety of De-escalation to lower dose Ticagrelor (60 mg BID) plus Aspirin (75 mg OD) versus continuation of standard dose Ticagrelor (90 mg BID) plus Aspirin (75 mg OD), 1 month after primary PCI for STEMI, in diabetic patients. Secondary objectives: To compare tolerability and discontinuation of Ticagrelor in both doses. To compare the 1ry safety & efficacy endpoints in subgroups with different thrombotic/ischemic risk
Individual differences in drug efficacy and adverse reactions are common in the clinical application of drugs. Individual differences are caused by many factors, among which genetic factors account for more than 20%. Novel oral anticoagulant drugs (NOACs, including rivaroxaban, apixaban, edoxaban, dabigatran, etc.) and novel antiplatelet drug ticagrelor have the advantages of convenient use and no need for monitoring. But novel oral antithrombotic drugs also increase the risk of bleeding, and there is currently a lack of effective antagonists when antithrombosis is excessive or emergency surgery is required. At present, there are few studies on the causes of individual differences in novel antithrombotic drugs, and there is a lack of predictable biomarkers or drug genotypes, especially in China. Therefore, on the basis of previous studies on NOACs and ticagrelor individualized medication cohorts, this study plans to establish a validation cohort for novel antithrombotic drugs bleeding related biomarkers, conduct multi-omics testing and long-term follow-up, and explore markers related to pharmacodynamics of antithrombotic drugs, adverse bleeding reactions and clinical outcomes.
This study will involve healthy volunteers and patients with Type 2 diabetes. Eligible healthy volunteers will be invited to enroll into one of two protocols (A or B) and eligible patients with diabetes will be enrolled into protocol A.
East Asian patients will be required optimal dose of newer P2Y12 inhibitor (ticagrelor) to determine the safer treatment and better outcome. Whether low dose of ticagrelorI is more adequate for clinical practice in Korea is unclear. Therefore, the investigators aim to evaluate efficacy and safety of low dose of ticagrelor in Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).
In patients with coronary artery disease, dual antiplatelet therapy (acetylsalicylic acid and a P2Y12-receptor antagonist) is a commonly used method because of its excellent antithrombotic effect. In particular, in patients with acute myocardial infarction, who receive coronary angiography as an emergency, the dual antiplatelet is used immediately before the test to prevent and test further clot formation, regardless of whether or not the patient had previously taken dual antiplatelet. Ticagrelor, a direct-acting and reversible ADP receptor antagonist, was introduced in Denmark in 2013 and is now the most commonly used ADP receptor antagonist in the treatment of ACS. Compared to its predecessor clopidogrel, the pharmacokinetic profil of ticagrelor is more predictable, demonstrating a faster onset of action and a more consistent platelet inhibition. However, because of the excellent antithrombotic effect and increased bleeding potential, it is recommended that major bleeding, such as OPCAB or CABG surgery, be expected with a high probability, and in case of fatal surgery, the drug should be discontinued for 5 days. Most patients who receive emergency coronary heart surgery after undergoing coronary angiography as an emergency due to an acute myocardial infarction, it take approximately 24-48 hours to undergo surgery after examination. In fact, there have been reports of large-scale cross-country studies that do not increase bleeding risk compared to 5 days until 3 days after ticagrelor is stopped. Therefore, this study aimed to retrospectively analyze the bleeding tendency by analyzing the records of patients using clopidogrel or ticagrelor in preoperative coronary angiography for patients undergoing emergency CABG surgery from 2016 to September 2019.
The study is to further exploring the optimal switching strategy by evaluating the pharmacodynamic responses as well as adverse events in patients with complexity of coronary artery disease managed by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). All participants will be divided into three groups and recieving ticagrelor 90mg plus aspirin 100mg at 12 hours after the last dose of clopidogrel; recieving ticagrelor 90mg plus aspirin 100mg at 24 hours after the last dose of clopidogrel; recieving ticagrelor 180mg plus aspirin 100mg at 24 hours after the last dose of clopidogrel.
In patients with heart attacks, the current standard of care is to restore blood flow through percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This is done using stents (metal meshes) that opens up blockages. Following PCI, standard preventative drug treatment includes the use of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) using both aspirin and a platelet P2Y12 receptor inhibitor (Ticagrelor 90 mg twice a day or Clopidogrel 75 mg once a day) for one year to prevent clotting that can result in additional heart attacks, sudden clotting of stents or death. New studies have shown that there is a benefit to continuing DAPT beyond this one year mark. Longer-term DAPT has been shown to reduce ischemic events (heart attack, stroke) but increase the risk of bleeding. Present guidelines state that the decision to continue DAPT beyond the one year mark should be made on an individualized basis. The present study is a "pilot study" that seeks to compare Long-Term use of Ticagrelor (LTT) versus a Personalized Approach (PA). We will be recruiting patients who have been stable (free of ischemic or bleeding outcomes) on DAPT for 1 year after initial presentation with a heart attack. The PA group will use a modified DAPT score based on patient demographics to decide whether treatment is warranted. Patient will also undergo bedside genetic testing to identify potential at-risk genes. Those identified as carriers will be treated with ticagrelor while non-carriers will be treated with clopidogrel. The present study will determine whether a personalized approach will decrease bleeding versus an approach of universal ticagrelor use. The hypothesis is that patients receiving a personalized strategy will have a decreased risk of bleeding.
It is general that there are many factors for individual differences of drugs in clinical application, of which genetic factors accounted for more than 20%. Ticagrelor is a new-type receptor antagonist of P2Y12 and it is not affected by the influence of CYP2C19 polymorphism. With lack of predicted biomarkers, especially the research data of Chinese, it has the important significance in studying individual differences of ticagrelor in the antiplatelet efficacy and safety, through the pharmacogenomics research. The aim of this study is to determine the polymorphism of drug metabolizing enzymes, drug transporters and drug target genes in Chinese population. By detecting the gene polymorphism, we intend to study the pharmacokinetic/ pharmacodynamics/ pharmacogenomics (PK-PD-PG) correlation of ticagrelor and provide scientific basis for accurate medication guide for people to use ticagrelor.
Of the patients diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who underwent reperfusion therapy and have thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) 3 flow, about 40% have flow alterations in the coronary microcirculation, which leads to worse remodeling of the left ventricle with a consequent increase in the mortality of this population. Clopidogrel is the only known antiplatelet medication that brings benefits to the coronary microcirculation. Ticagrelor is significantly superior to clopidogrel in terms of decreasing mortality. The main objective of this study is to compare the effect of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel on the coronary microcirculation by the Myocardial Perfusion Score Index (MPSI) obtained using Microbubble Contrasted Echocardiography (MCE) in patients who have STEMI and treated with thrombolysis.
The specific objective of this study is to investigate the potential for normal platelets to reverse the inhibition of platelet aggregation in patients treated with ticagrelor in combination with aspirin.
