NCT00827411

Brief Summary

Our first hypothesis is that dose adjustment of aspirin and clopidogrel based on biological monitoring reduces the rate of severe cardiovascular complications compared to a conventional strategy in patients scheduled for drug eluting stent implantation and followed up for one year. Our second hypothesis is that interruption of clopidogrel / Prasugrel after one year of a combined therapy of clopidogrel/Prasugrel and aspirin is associated with a higher rate of severe cardiovascular complications as compared with patients in whom aspirin and clopidogrel / Prasugrel is maintained during the subsequent 6 months of follow-up.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Composite endpoint of death, myocardial infarction, stroke, urgent coronary revascularization, stent thrombosis assessed at one year for the first hypothesis and between 6 up to 18 months of follow-up for the second hypothesis

    during the study (one year in both " monitoring " and " conventional " arms and during the periode from 6 up to 18 months in the "interruption" and "pursuit" arms)

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Stent thrombosis and urgent coronary revascularization

    at month 12 and month 30

  • Rate of individual event at one year follow-up in both " monitoring " and " conventional " arms but also during the period from one year up to 24 months in the " interruption " and " pursuit " arms.

    at month 12 and month 30

  • Time delay from treatment interruption (randomization 2) to any thrombotic event (stent thrombosis, urgent revascularization, acute myocardial infarction, cardiac death) treatment interruption(randomisation 2)

    at month 12 and month 30

  • Treatment compliance evaluated by the number of oral antiplatelet treatment in both arms and with respect to all individual events of the primary composite endpoint

    at month 12 and month 30

  • Rate of use of GP IIb/IIIa receptor antagonists in both " monitoring " and " conventional " arms before percutaneous coronary intervention and in bail out situations and in both.

    at month 12 and month 30

  • +3 more secondary outcomes
