Brief Summary
To demonstrate that patients treated with cangrelor can be directly switched to oral prasugrel and that patients treated with prasugrel can be switched to cangrelor without a significant decrease in the extent of inhibition of platelet aggregation.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Extent of Preservation of Inhibitory Effect After Transition From Cangrelor to Prasugrel Compared With Effect Observed With Prasugrel Alone (Reference Timepoint)
A reference point for the effect of prasugrel alone was chosen for comparison and designated the final draw on study Day 1 (3.5 or 4.0 hours after cangrelor had been discontinued) as the reference for the effect of prasugrel. The extent of aggregation in the presence or absence of the study drugs was examined for each of the endpoints using light transmittance aggregometry (LTA) and expressed as % aggregation in response to 20 micromolar (μM) adenosine diphosphate (ADP) at 300 seconds (final/terminal aggregation response).
Day 1 measures taken at timepoints after cangrelor infusion end to end of Day 1 measures.
Extent of Preservation of Inhibitory Effect of Cangrelor Treatment After Prasugrel, Compared to Treatment With Cangrelor Alone
A reference point for the inhibitory effect of cangrelor alone was chosen for comparison and designated the first draw during the cangrelor infusion (1.0 or 1.5 hours) or within 5 minutes post cangrelor infusion on Day 1. The extent of aggregation was observed during the cangrelor infusion on Day 8, either 24 or 48 hours after discontinuation of prasugrel using light transmittance aggregometry (LTA) and expressed as % aggregation in response to 20 μM adenosine diphosphate (ADP) at 300 seconds (final/terminal aggregation response).
Day 8 - at 1.0 and 2.0 hours after initiation of cangrelor infusion
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Extent of Preservation of Inhibitory Effect After Transition From Cangrelor to Prasugrel Compared With Effect Observed With Prasugrel Alone (Reference Timepoint)
Day 1 measures taken at timepoints after cangrelor infusion end to end of Day 1 measures.
Extent of Preservation of Inhibitory Effect of Cangrelor Treatment After Prasugrel, Compared to Treatment With Cangrelor Alone
Day 8 - at 1.0 and 2.0 hours after initiation of cangrelor infusion
Bleeding Events in Accordance With the GUSTO Scale
Day 1 through Day 8
Study Arms (5)
Day 1 - Cangrelor + Prasugrel (60mg) post infusion
EXPERIMENTALCangrelor IV + Oral prasugrel (60mg) administered within 5 minutes after cangrelor IV discontinuation
Day 8 - Prasugrel (10mg) Dosing (5 doses)
EXPERIMENTALPrasugrel discontinued 48h (n=6) prior to initiation of cangrelor infusion (2h)
Day 1 - Cangrelor + Prasugrel (60mg) at 1.5h
EXPERIMENTALCangrelor IV + oral prasugrel (60mg) administered at 1.5h after the cangrelor infusion start time.
Day 1 - Cangrelor + Prasugrel (60mg) a 1.0h
EXPERIMENTALCangrelor IV + oral prasugrel (60mg) administered at 1.0h after the cangrelor infusion start time.
Day 8 - Prasugrel (10mg) Dosing (6 doses)
EXPERIMENTALPrasugrel discontinued 24h prior to initiation of cangrelor infusion (2h)
Interventions
Cangrelor IV administered as a 30 µg/kg bolus, followed by 4 µg/kg/min infusion for two hours on study Days 1 and 8
Day 1: Subjects received prasugrel (60 mg) either during the initial cangrelor infusion (at 1.0 hours or 1.5 hours after infusion start) or within 5 minutes of discontinuing the cangrelor infusion. Subjects will be given either 5 or 6 additional 10-mg doses to be taken every 24 hours between Day 1 and Day 8.
