Prasugrel Versus Double Dose Clopidogrel to Treat Clopidogrel Low-responsiveness After PCI
Summary
All patients undergoing elective or sub-acute PCI are screened by MULTIPLATE test for clopidogrel low-responsiveness after receiving 600 mg clopidogrel the day before.
A cut off value has previously been established. Only low-responders with Multiplate values above the cut off value are included in the study. The patients are randomized to either clopidogrel 150 mg once daily or Prasugrel 10 mg once daily for 30 days after the procedure.
Follow up will be at 30 days after PCI were another MULTIPLATE test will be performed.
Primary endpoint:Platelet inhibition (by MULTIPLATE) after 30 days of intensified antiplatelet therapy.
Clinical endpoints such as bleeding complications (GUSTO, TIMI) during treatment, and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 30 days will be collected and reported but the study size does not allow for formal statistical analysis The study ends by the 30 days follow up visit and all patients continue with clopidogrel 75 mg once daily for another 11 months (not study related)

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Coronary Artery Bypass
Surgical therapy of ischemic coronary artery disease achieved by grafting a section of saphenous vein, internal mammary artery, or other substitute between the aorta and the obstructed coronary artery distal to the obstructive lesion.
Internal Mammary-coronary Artery Anastomosis
Direct myocardial revascularization in which the internal mammary artery is anastomosed to the right coronary artery, circumflex artery, or anterior descending coronary artery. The internal mammary artery is the most frequent choice, especially for a single graft, for coronary artery bypass surgery.
Coronary-subclavian Steal Syndrome
A complication of INTERNAL MAMMARY-CORONARY ARTERY ANASTOMOSIS whereby an occlusion or stenosis of the proximal SUBCLAVIAN ARTERY causes a reversal of the blood flow away from the CORONARY CIRCULATION, through the grafted INTERNAL MAMMARY ARTERY (internal thoracic artery), and back to the distal subclavian distribution.
Coronary Artery Disease
Pathological processes of CORONARY ARTERIES that may derive from a congenital abnormality, atherosclerotic, or non-atherosclerotic cause.
Gastroepiploic Artery
Abdominal artery that follows the curvature of the stomach. The right gastroepiploic artery is frequently used in CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFTING; MYOCARDIAL REVASCULARIZATION, and other vascular reconstruction.
