Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Coronary Arteriosclerosis
Acute Coronary Syndrome
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00356135
Lead Sponsor
Eli Lilly and Company
Brief Summary

This study will compare the effect of a prasugrel 10-mg maintenance dose with a clopidogrel 75-mg maintenance dose on platelet activity, approximately 1 week after the first dose of study drug, in subjects who have been taking clopidogrel 75 mg daily following a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with placement of a stent, performed to treat acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Number of Participants With Bleeding Events by Visit According to Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction Study Group (TIMI) CriteriaEnd of 14 day open label (baseline); 24 Hours, 7 days, 14 days after first dose of randomized drug

Bleeding events were classified as Major Bleeding, Minor Bleeding, or Insignificant according to TIMI criteria. Major Bleeding: any intracranial hemorrhage OR any clinically overt bleeding (including bleeding evident on imaging studies) associated with a fall in hemoglobin (Hgb) of ≥5 gm/dL from baseline. Minor Bleeding: any clinically overt bleeding (including bleeding evident on imaging studies) associated with a fall in Hgb of ≥3 gm/dL but \<5 gm/dL from baseline. Insignificant Bleeding: any bleeding event that does not meet criteria for a Major or Minor Bleed.
