BAY81-8781, I.V. Aspirin in the Indication of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS)

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Acute Coronary Syndrome
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00910065
Lead Sponsor
Bayer
Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to investigate whether intravenous administration (injected into a vein) of acetylsalicylic acid (Aspirin) in doses of 250 and 500 mg is superior to oral treatment of ACS with tablets containing 300 mg of Aspirin.

Detailed Description

In November 2009 it was the company's decision to cancel this study as an international trial. However, to support the local MA application of Aspirin i.v. for the indication "For the initial treatment in case of suspicion of acute coronary syndrome", Bayer decided to perform this trial in Germany as a domestic trial, with changed number of participants and study dates.
