Brief Summary

This study is a prospective, open label, two-arm, randomized multicenter trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of aspirin plus prasugrel as compared with aspirin plus clopidogrel in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention with drug eluting stents for complex coronary lesions.

Study Arms (2)

Prasugrel plus Aspirin arm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients will receive 300 mg of aspirin before PCI unless they have previously received this antiplatelet medication. A loading dose of prasugrel 60 mg will be given before or after PCI as soon as possible following randomization, unless they have previously received the assigned medication. Aspirin 100 mg plus prasugrel 10 mg once daily\* will be given for one year. \* Based on previous studies including PRASFIT-ACS (PRASugrel compared with clopidogrel For Japanese patIenTs with ACS undergoing PCI) or TRILOGY ACS (The Targeted Platelet Inhibition to Clarify the Optimal Strategy to Medically Manage Acute Coronary Syndromes), maintenance dose can be reduced to 5 mg once daily in patients with high bleeding risk or by investigator's medical judgement.

Drug: Dual antiplatelet therapy with a P2Y12 inhibitor plus aspirin

Clopidogrel plus Aspirin arm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients will receive 300 mg of aspirin before PCI unless they have previously received this antiplatelet medication. A loading dose of clopidogrel 600 mg will be given before or after PCI as soon as possible following randomization, unless they have previously received the assigned medication. Aspirin 100 mg plus clopidogrel 75 mg once daily will be given for one year.

Drug: Dual antiplatelet therapy with a P2Y12 inhibitor plus aspirin

Interventions

Dual antiplatelet therapy with a P2Y12 inhibitor plus aspirin will be given according to the allocated arms in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention for complex coronary lesion 1. Prasugrel plus Aspirin arm 2. Clopidogrel plus Aspirin arm

Also known as: Prasugrel plus Aspirin or Clopidogrel plus Aspirin

Eligibility Criteria

Age19 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • ① Subject must be at least 19 years of age
  • ② Subject who can verbally confirm understandings of risks, benefits and treatment alternatives and he/she or his/her legally authorized representative provides written informed consent prior to any study related procedure
  • ③ Patients undergoing elective PCI as follows:
  • True bifurcation lesion (Medina 1,1,1/1,0,1/0,1,1) with side branch ≥2.5 mm size
  • Chronic total occlusion (≥3 months) as target lesion
  • PCI for unprotected left main disease (left main ostium, body, or distal bifurcation including non-true bifurcation lesions)
  • Long coronary lesions (expected stent length ≥38 mm)
  • Multi-vessel PCI (≥2 vessels treated at one PCI session)
  • Multiple stent needed (≥3 stents per patient)
  • In-stent restenosis lesion as target lesion
  • Severely calcified lesion (encircling calcium in angiography)
  • Ostial lesions of left anterior descending artery, left circumflex artery, or right coronary artery

You may not qualify if:

  • ① Hemodynamic instability or cardiogenic shock
  • ② Subjects with serious bleeding (Intracerebral hemorrhage, gastrointestinal bleeding, hematuria, hemoptysis, and etc.)
  • ③ Previous history of intracerebral hemorrhage, transient ischemic attack, or stroke
  • ④ Known hypersensitivity or contraindications to study medications (aspirin, clopidogrel, and prasugrel)
  • ⑤ Female of childbearing potential, unless a recent pregnancy test is negative, who possibly plan to become pregnant any time after enrollment into this study
  • ⑥ Non-cardiac co-morbid conditions are present with life expectancy \<1 year or that may result in protocol non-compliance (per site investigator's medical judgment)
  • ⑦ Patients presenting with biomarker positive acute coronary syndrome
  • ⑧ Patients chronically taking prasugrel or ticagrelor (≥1 week)
  • ⑨ Subjects ≥75 years of age or \<60 kg of body weight
  • ⑩ Patients taking warfarin or novel oral anticoagulants (dabigatran, rivaroxaban, edoxaban, or apixaban)
  • Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to treatment arms, stratified by participating centers, presence of diabetes mellitus, and stent types.
