Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To compare efficacy and safety of dalteparin compared to unfractionated heparin in patients of non ST elevation acute coronary syndromes who are planned to undergo coronary interventions (angioplasty or bypass surgery)

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Dalteparin ( Fragmin)
  • Drug: Unfractionated heparin
Phase 4

Detailed Description

The study was prematurely discontinued on November 30, 2008 due to delay in meeting pre-defined protocol recruitment milestones. There were no safety concerns regarding the study in the decision to terminate the trial.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: A

Drug: Dalteparin ( Fragmin)
Dalteparin will be administered at a dose of 120 IU/kg (international units per kilogram) total body weight subcutaneously (SC) every 12 hours up to a maximum dose of 10,000 IU/12 hours.

Active Comparator: B

Drug: Unfractionated heparin
Unfractionated heparin will be given intravenously according to a weight-adjusted nomogram (bolus of 60 U/kg [units per kilogram] and initial infusion of 12 U/kg/h [units per kilogram per hour]).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Subjects With Death or Non-fatal Myocardial Infarction Through and Up to Day 30 [Baseline to Day 30]

    Death or non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) after receiving 48 hours of study medication (event date - first dose date) on or before day 30 from baseline. Death: fatal event resulting from any cause. New MI: electrocardiographic (ECG) and or biomarker criteria of myocardial necrosis. Biochemical markers: creatine phosphokinase - myocardial band (CPK-MB) levels and the qualitative troponin-T test.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Subjects With Stroke [End of hospitalization, Day 30]

    Stroke: a sudden, focal neurologic deficit that is not reversible within 24 hours and is not the result of any readily identifiable cause (e.g., tumor or trauma).

  2. Number of Subjects With Recurrent Angina With or Without Need for Hospitalization and or Revascularization [End of hospitalization, Day 30]

    Recurrent angina: angina at rest lasting at least five minutes that was associated with a new ST-segment shift (elevation or depression) of more than 0.1 millivolt (mV), or with T-wave inversions, in two contiguous electrocardiographic leads; angina without electrocardiographic changes that prompted a decision to perform a revascularization procedure; or angina after hospital discharge that resulted in rehospitalization.

  3. Number of Subjects With Death or Non-fatal Myocardial Infarction (MI), Computed Separately, at End of Hospitalization and 30 Days [End of hospitalization, Day 30]

    Death or non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) after receiving 48 hours of study medication (event date - first dose date) at end of hospitalization and on Day 30. Death: fatal event resulting from any cause. New MI: defined by electrocardiographic and/or biomarker criteria of myocardial necrosis. Biochemical markers: creatine phosphokinase - myocardial band (CPK-MB) levels and the qualitative troponin-T test.

  4. Number of Subjects With Stent Thrombosis and Abrupt Closures During Hospitalization [End of hospitalization, Day 30]

    Abrupt vessel closure and or stent thrombosis: occurrence of vessel closure (no visible antegrade flow of contrast dye occurring after balloon angioplasty) or stent thrombosis determined angiographically.

  5. Number of Subjects With Bleeding by Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Criteria [End of hospitalization, Day 30]

    Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) major bleeding: at least a 5-grams per deciliter (g/dL) decrease in hemoglobin, at least a 15 percent (%) decrease in hematocrit, or intracranial bleeding. TIMI minor bleeding: associated with gastrointestinal or genitourinary bleeding, with an absolute decrease in hemoglobin of 4 g/dL or more, or decrease in hematocrit of at least 12%.
