Overview
The results of the ELEVATE-TIMI 56 trial were recently presented in AHA 2011 held at Orlando, Florida.
ELEVATE-TIMI 56 trial [1]
- Hypothesis - To see whether increasing the dose of clopidogrel to 300 mg / day rather than the standard 75 mg / day maintenance dose improves outcomes in patients with loss-of-function CYP2C19 genotypes.
- Study design
- Patient population
- Multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial
- Duration of study - 1 years
- Intervention - Maintenance doses of clopidogrel for 4 treatment periods, (each treatment period lasted 14 days). 247 noncarriers received 75 and 150 mg daily of clopidogrel (2 periods each), and 86 carriers (80 heterozygotes, 6 homozygotes) received 75, 150, 225, and 300 mg daily.
- Primary end point - Platelet function test results and adverse events.
- Patient population
- Limitations
- Results -
- Conclusions
