Pharmacodynamic Evaluation of PL2200 Versus Enteric-Coated Aspirin in Diabetic Patients

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02008942
Lead Sponsor
PLx Pharma
Brief Summary

This study will determine if aspirin from PL2200, an investigational product, gets into the blood stream as quickly as enteric coated aspirin, and to test whether PL2200 is able to prevent blood clots as effectively as enteric coated aspirin, when administered to patients with diabetes

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time to 99% Inhibition of Serum Thromboxane11 days

Serial measurements of aspirin anti-platelet activity will be collected over 11 days, and compared between groups, to allow a determination of pharmacodynamic (anti-platelet) bioequivalence between study drugs. Aspirin's antiplatelet activity is measured by the capacity of platelets to generate serum thromboxane (a surrogate marker for inhibition of COX-1 by aspirin). Inhibition of serum thromboxane is a key marker of antiplatelet efficacy.
