Summary

The sponsors of this investigational drug are developing prasugrel (also known as CS-747) as a possible treatment for patients with acute coronary syndrome (heart attack or chest pain) who need, or are expected to need, a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI; also called a balloon angioplasty). Prasugrel was compared with Clopidogrel to determine which drug is better at reducing deaths, future heart attacks, or stroke.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • A person who has been diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome and is to undergo a percutaneous coronary intervention.
  • A person who is of the legal age of 18 and is mentally competent to provide a signed written informed consent.
  • If a woman is of childbearing potential (i.e., before menopause), she must test negative for pregnancy and agree to use a reliable method of birth control.

Exclusion Criteria

  • A person who has had an ischemic stroke within the last 3 months or a hemorrhagic stroke at any time in the past.
  • A person who has active internal bleeding or has a history of a bleeding disorder.
  • Individuals who are at an increased risk of bleeding based on laboratory criteria evaluated by the treatment physician or on medication that can cause bleeding.
  • A person who has liver disease; for example, cirrhosis.
