About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Myocardial Infarction focused on measuring prasugrel, clopidogrel, primary percutaneous coronary intervention, high platelet reactivity

  13. Any previous history of ischemic stroke, intracranial hemorrhage or disease (neoplasm, arteriovenous malformation, aneurysm).
  14. Thrombocytopenia (<100.000 / μL) at randomization
  15. Anaemia (Hct <30%) at randomization
  16. Polycythaemia (Hct > 52%) at randomization
  17. Periprocedural IIb/IIIa inhibitors administration
  18. Severe allergy to contrast agent, unfractionated heparin, enoxaparin or bivalirudin that cannot be adequately premedicated.
  19. Recent (< 6 weeks) major surgery or trauma, including GABG.
  20. Subjects receiving daily treatment with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors that cannot be discontinued for the duration of the study.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a single-center, randomized, single-blind, investigator-initiated, pharmacological study with a parallel design. Patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention and presenting high platelet reactivity as assessed with the Verify Now P2Y12 assay-Accumetrics(Platelet Reactivity Units -PRU≥235) at 2 hours post-clopidogrel 600mg LD (Day 0), as assessed with the Verify Now P2Y12 assay, will be randomized after informed consent, in a 1:1 ratio to the following treatment groups: Group Α: Clopidogrel 150mg per day,starting from Day 1 until Day 5 (5 days after randomization) Group Β: Prasugrel 60 mg immediate loading (on Day 0) followed by 10mg/day starting from Day 1 until Day 5 (5 days after randomization). Platelet reactivity assessment will be performed 2 hours after randomization (Day 0), 24 h after randomization (Day 1) and on Day 5. Documentation of major adverse cardiac events (death, myocardial infarction, stroke, revascularization procedure with PCI or CABG)and serious adverse events (bleeding, other adverse events)will be performed until Day 5.
