Brief Summary

Adequate platelet inhibition with dual antiplatelet therapy is a key therapeutic goal after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI), aimed at protecting against stent thrombosis and increased mortality. Recent aggregometric assays have shown that up to one third of acute coronary syndrome patients treated with clopidogrel have incomplete inhibition of adenosine diphosphate(ADP)-induced platelet aggregation while the number of patients treated with aspirin who have incomplete inhibition of thromboxane A2-induced platelet aggregation (ASPI)is much lower. High on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) has been associated with an increased rate of ischemic events after PCI. However, recent large trials did not show a clinical benefit of TPR-guided therapy modification in acute coronary syndrome patients treated by PCI. On-treatment PLAtelet reactivity-guided Therapy modification FOR ST-segment elevation Myocardial infarction (PLATFORM) is an investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, parallel-group, controlled clinical trial designed to test the hypothesis that antiplatelet therapy modification is superior to standard antiplatelet regimen among intermediate to high-risk STEMI patients undergoing PPCI. The safety hypothesis is that compared with control arm, interventional study arm will have similar rates of non-coronary artery bypass graft surgery-related bleeding. Approximately 632 ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with intermediate to high-risk (RISK-PCI score \>3) clinical features undergoing PPCI will be randomly allocated to treatment modification or standard treatment. Low responders to aspirin will receive 200 mg aspirin for 30 days. Low responders to clopidogrel will receive 180 mg ticagrelor for 1 year. Patients will be followed up to 1 year after PPCI.

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Stent thrombosis

Study Arms (2)

Intervention Arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Antiplatelet regimen modification will be guided by assessment of the on-treatment platelet reactivity. Low responders to aspirin will receive 200 mg aspirin for 30 days. Low responders to clopidogrel will receive 180 mg ticagrelor for 1 year.

Drug: Antiplatelet Regimen Modification (aspirin or ticagrelor)

Standard Treatment

NO INTERVENTION

Patients enrolled in the Standard Treatment arm will receive standard antiplatelet regimen including 100 mg aspirin and 75 mg clopidogrel without assessment of on-treatment platelet reactivity.
