  • Male or non-pregnant female at least 18 years of age

  • Patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI):

    1. Stable angina (SA) patients with diagnostic coronary angiography within 90 days prior to randomization demonstrating atherosclerosis

GroupInterventionDescription
clopidogrelClopidogrel - 300 or 600 mg (study arm)Clopidogrel 300 mg or 600 mg administered pre or post PCI. Selection of dose and timing of dose were per investigator discretion. During the PCI a placebo infusion was given to maintain the blinding of the trial. In addition, placebo capsules were administered at the end of the infusion mimic the 600mg post infusion dose provided in the cangrelor arm.
cangrelorcangrelor P2Y12 (platelet) inhibitorCangrelor was administered as a 30 µg/kg bolus followed by a 4.0 µg/kg/min cangrelor IV infusion for a minimum of 2 hours or until conclusion of the index procedure, whichever is longer. At the discretion of the treating physician, the infusion could be continued for a total duration of 4 hours. Following the discontinuation of the cangrelor infusion, 600mg of clopidogrel was administered.
cangrelorClopidogrel 600 mg post cangrelorCangrelor was administered as a 30 µg/kg bolus followed by a 4.0 µg/kg/min cangrelor IV infusion for a minimum of 2 hours or until conclusion of the index procedure, whichever is longer. At the discretion of the treating physician, the infusion could be continued for a total duration of 4 hours. Following the discontinuation of the cangrelor infusion, 600mg of clopidogrel was administered.
