Complete Title of Study

A Phase III, Multicenter, Multinational, Randomized, Parallel Group, Double-Blind Trial of Clopidogrel Versus Placebo in High-Risk Patients Aged 45 Years and Older, at Risk of Atherothrombotic Events, and Who Are Receiving Background Therapy Including Low-Dose ASA.

Study Acronym (The trial's abbreviation if there is one)

CHARISMA

Principal Investigator, Co-investigators, and Collaborating Institutions

Study Director: ICD CSD Sanofi-Aventis

Overview of Trial

The goal of the study is to compare the efficacy of 75mg once daily clopidogrel with placebo in preventing major cardioavasular events (stroke, MI, cardiovascular death) in high risk patients on a low-dose aspirin therapy (75-162 mg daily) and to compare rates of major and fatal bleeding between the clopidogrel and placebo groups.

Disease State(s) Studied (e.g. acute MI, breast cancer, etc.)

Arteriosclerosis
