Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Prospective, single-center, double blind, double dummy, randomized trial. Platelet function tests and adenosine levels were assessed at baseline and 15 days after taking Ticagrelor with Prasugrel placebo or Prasugrel with Ticagrelor placebo in stable patients with coronary artery disease

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

This was a prospective, double blinded, randomized trial that compared platelet inhibition and adenosine levels with ticagrelor (180mg loading dose, followed by 90 mg BID) versus prasugrel (60mg loading dose, followed by 10 mg QD) .

Patients were eligible if they were between 18 and 75 years old, were on aspirin without P2Y12 inhibitor at baseline and > 1 year after documented ACS. Platelet aggregation was compared with the Multiplate ADP® assay, performed at baseline and after 15 days on study medication. Adenosine plasma levels were measured with high performance liquid chromatography at the same time points

Drug: Ticagrelor
Compared platelet inhibition and adenosine levels at baseline and after 15 days

Active Comparator: Ticagrelor group

Ticagrelor (180mg loading dose, followed by 90 mg BID) + Prasugrel placebo (Placebo loading dose followed by one pill a day)

Drug: Prasugrel
Compared platelet inhibition and adenosine levels at baseline and after 15 days

Drug: Ticagrelor
Compared platelet inhibition and adenosine levels at baseline and after 15 days

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. To compare platelet inhibition between the two groups (ticagrelor and prasugrel) [15 days]

    Platelet aggregation was compared with the Multiplate ADP® assay at baseline and after 15 days on study medication

  2. To compare adenosine levels between the two groups (ticagrelor and prasugrel) [15 days]

    Adenosine plasma levels were measured at baseline and after 15 days with high performance liquid chromatography at the same time points
