Different LD of Ticagrelor for Antiplatelet Effect in Patients With Non-ST-segment Elevation ACS Undergoing PCI

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Non ST Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01962428
Lead Sponsor
General Hospital of Chinese Armed Police Forces
Brief Summary

It is designed to test the hypothesis that high loading dose(360mg) ticagrelor versus conventional loading dose(180mg) will result in a higher inhibition of platelet aggregation(IPA) without increasing the bleeding events.

Detailed Description

After providing written informed consent, all patients will be randomized to receive ticagrelor 360mg or 180mg loading dose(LD),then 90mg bid maintenance dose starting 12 hours after LD.PCI will performed in 2h-72h after they are given the loading dose.All patients should receive acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) 75 to 100 mg daily unless intolerant.IPA at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 8, 24h after the loading dose of ticagrelor will be measured. CK-MB, troponin I, myoglobin, CRP will be detected at 0h, before PCI, 8h after PCI, 24h after PCI. ECG will be conducted at 0h and within 24h after PCI. Patients returned 28 days for follow-up visits after the loading dose of ticagrelor, documented any adverse events.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Platelet Reactivity Index(PRI) Measured by VASP-P2 hours after the loading dose of ticagrelor

Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein(VASP) phosphorylation, a measure of P2Y12 receptor reactivity, was determined by flow cytometry with the use of the Platelet VASP-FCM Kit (Stago, France)and recorded as the platelet reactivity index (PRI).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Platelet Reactivity Index (PRI) Measured by VASP-P0.5hour,1hour,8hours,24hours after the loading dose of ticagrelor
Bleeding Eventsfollow-up for 28 days after the loading dose of ticagrelor
