Overview
Brief Summary
The PROTEUS study is a randomized, cross-over, open-label, pharmacodynamic trial designed to compare the antiplatelet effect of reduced maintenance doses of prasugrel and ticagrelor in stable patients who recently had non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction or unstable angina).

Arms & Interventions
Initial ticagrelor
All patients will receive standard 180 mg loading dose of ticagrelor, followed by a standard maintenance dose of 90 mg bid for 30 days, after which de-escalation to 60 mg bid will take place and this dosing will be maintained for 15 days. At day 45 all patients will be loaded with standard 60 mg dose of prasugrel followed by reduced maintenance dose of 5 mg qd for 15 days. At day 60 all patients will be switched back to guideline recommended antiplatelet therapy.
Intervention: De-escalation to ticagrelor 60 mg at day 30 (Drug)
Initial ticagrelor
All patients will receive standard 180 mg loading dose of ticagrelor, followed by a standard maintenance dose of 90 mg bid for 30 days, after which de-escalation to 60 mg bid will take place and this dosing will be maintained for 15 days. At day 45 all patients will be loaded with standard 60 mg dose of prasugrel followed by reduced maintenance dose of 5 mg qd for 15 days. At day 60 all patients will be switched back to guideline recommended antiplatelet therapy.
Intervention: Switch to prasugrel 5 mg at day 45 (Drug)
Initial prasugrel
All patients will receive standard 60 mg loading dose of prasugrel, followed by a standard maintenance dose 10 mg qd for 30 days, after which de-escalation to 5 mg qd will take place and this dosing will be maintained for 15 days. At day 45 patients will be loaded with standard 180 mg dose of ticagrelor followed by reduced maintenance dose of 60 mg bid for 15 days. At day 60 all patients will be switched back to guideline recommended antiplatelet therapy.
Intervention: De-escalation to prasugrel 5 mg at day 30 (Drug)

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Platelet Reactivity Assessed with Multiple Electrode Aggregometry
Time Frame: day 15 of using reduced maintenance dose of prasugrel or ticagrelor
Platelet Reactivity Assessed with Multiple Electrode Aggregometry will be evaluated after 15 days of using reduced maintenance dose of prasugrel or ticagrelor.
Secondary Outcomes
- High Platelet Reactivity according to Multiple Electrode Aggregometry(day 15 of using reduced maintenance dose of prasugrel or ticagrelor)
- High Platelet Reactivity according to the VerifyNow assay(day 15 of using reduced maintenance dose of prasugrel or ticagrelor)
- Platelet Reactivity Assessed with the VerifyNow assay(day 15 of using reduced maintenance dose of prasugrel or ticagrelor)
