Trial Outcomes & Findings for Third Optimizing Anti-Platelet Therapy in Diabetes MellitUS (OPTIMUS-3) (NCT NCT00642174)

NCT ID: NCT00642174

Last Updated: 2010-02-23

Results Overview

The inhibition of platelet aggregation 4 hours after the loading dose was administered was assessed using the Accumetrics VerifyNow™ P2Y12 assay. Percentage inhibition, as reported by VerifyNow™ P2Y12, was calculated from P2Y12 Reaction Unit (PRU) (rate and extent of adenosine diphosphate \[ADP\]-stimulated platelet aggregation) and BASE (estimate of baseline platelet reactivity independent of P2Y12 receptor inhibition \[reference values\]: rate and extent of Thrombin Receptor-Activated Peptide-stimulated platelet aggregation) values as follows: Percentage (%) inhibition = (1-PRU/BASE) x 100.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 4 hours after loading dose

Population: Pharmacodynamic Population, which included all randomized participants who had blood draws for IPA at 4 hours, who met compliance criteria, and who had last dose of study drug prior to the blood draw for IPA.

The inhibition of platelet aggregation 4 hours after the loading dose was administered was assessed using the Accumetrics VerifyNow™ P2Y12 assay. Percentage inhibition, as reported by VerifyNow™ P2Y12, was calculated from P2Y12 Reaction Unit (PRU) (rate and extent of adenosine diphosphate \[ADP\]-stimulated platelet aggregation) and BASE (estimate of baseline platelet reactivity independent of P2Y12 receptor inhibition \[reference values\]: rate and extent of Thrombin Receptor-Activated Peptide-stimulated platelet aggregation) values as follows: Percentage (%) inhibition = (1-PRU/BASE) x 100.

Population: Pharmacodynamic Population, which included all randomized participants who had blood draws for MPA, who met compliance criteria, and who had last dose of study drug prior to the blood draw for MPA.

Mean platelet aggregation (MPA) to 5 and 20 µM adenosine diphosphate (ADP) was assessed by light transmittance aggregometry (LTA). Platelet aggregation was monitored for a total of 7 minutes after addition of ADP. Maximum platelet aggregation was the maximal aggregation value achieved during the 7-minute observation period following addition of agonists.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 1 Hour, 4 Hours, and 24 Hours after loading dose, and 24 Hours after last maintenance dose

Population: Pharmacodynamic Population, which included all randomized participants who had blood draws for Vasodilator-Associated Stimulated Phosphoprotein (VASP), who met compliance criteria, and who had last dose of study drug prior to the blood draw for inhibition of platelet function as assessed by VASP.

Data from the Vasodilator-associated stimulated phosphoprotein assay were reported as the platelet reactivity index (PRI) which was calculated from corrected mean fluorescence intensity (cMFI) following incubation of platelets with either prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) alone or PGE1 plus ADP: Platelet Reactivity Index (%) = \[1-(cMFI PGEI+ADP/cMFI PGEI)\] x 100. Lower PRI values indicate greater platelet P2Y12 inhibition.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 1 Hour, 4 Hours, and 24 Hours after loading dose, and 24 Hours after last maintenance dose

Population: Pharmacodynamic Population, which included all randomized participants who had blood draws for Inhibition of Platelet Function (IPF) as measured by Thromboelastography (TEG)-Platelet Mapping Maximum Amplitude - Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP), who met compliance criteria, and who had last dose of study drug prior to blood draw for IPF.

Thromboelastography (TEG) platelet mapping (MP) maximum amplitude (MA) - Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) millimeters (mm) at each time point. The TEG-MP MA measures strength of clot formation in whole blood. MA-ADP is the maximal amplitude resulting from fibrin and platelets not blocked by ADP-receptor inhibiting drugs. Fibrin strands in blood sample link a rotating sample cup with a stationary pin suspended by a torsion wire. The degree of platelet contribution to the MA through platelet-fibrin bonding directly influences the magnitude of pin movement and ultimately the amplitude of the tracing.
