Summary

This trial is designed as a phase 2 randomized, double-blind double dummy, active comparator controlled, two-period two-arm crossover study to enroll 40 patients across multiple centers. The study will compare platelet function following a prasugrel loading dose and 1 week of prasugrel maintenance therapy with high-dose clopidogrel loading dose and 1 week of high-dose clopidogrel maintenance therapy in patients with drug treated type 2 diabetes mellitus who have coronary artery disease. Various assays of platelet function will be used in this study. Platelet function will be studied using the following assays: Accumetrics VerifyNowTM P2Y12, Light Transmittance Aggregometry (LTA), Vasodilator-associated stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP), and Thromboelastography (TEG)-platelet mapping.

Clinical Details

Official title: A Pharmacodynamic Comparison of Prasugrel (LY640315) Versus High Dose Clopidogrel in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Coronary Artery Disease.

Study design: Treatment, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Active Control, Crossover Assignment, Pharmacodynamics Study

Primary outcome: Comparison of Inhibition of Platelet Aggregation (IPA) between the prasugrel and clopidogrel treatment groups assessed by Accumetrics VerifyNowTM P2Y12 Assay.

Secondary outcome:

Comparison of IPA assessed by Accumetrics VerifyNowTM P2Y12 Assay between the prasugrel and clopidogrel treatment groups.

Comparison of Maximum Platelet Aggregation (MPA) between prasugrel and clopidogrel treatment groups as assessed by Light Transmittance Aggregometry (LTA)

Comparison of inhibition of platelet function between prasugrel and clopidogrel treatment groups as assessed by Vasodilator-associated stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP).

Comparison of inhibition of platelet function between prasugrel and clopidogrel treatment groups as measured by Thromboelastography (TEG)-platelet mapping.
