ARMYDA-4: Study design 30 days 4 - 8 Hours pre-PCI Medical Rx N= 62 Clopidogrel 600 mg re-loading ‡ N= 230 N= 360 464 Patients on clopidogrel therapy with PCI “reload” arm N= 180 Primary end point: Death, MI*, TVR ü Stable angina Angiography or Randomization ü NSTE ACS PCI - placebo arm N= 180 Placebo ‡ N= 234 ü undergoing coronary angiography CABG N= 42 1st blood sample before PCI 2nd and 3rd blood sample at 8 and 24 hours - CK-MB, troponin-I, myoglobin, CRP ‡On top of chronic therapy * MI = >3 times UNL CK-MB

  7. ARMYDA-4: STUDY ENDPOINTS • Primary endpoint • 30-day incidence of death, MI, TVR • (MI definition: post-procedural increase of CK-MB >3 times above UNL in patients with normal baseline levels of creatine kinase-MB) • Secondary endpoints • Post-procedural increase of markers of myocardial injury above UNL (CK-MB, troponin I, myoglobin) • Peak values of CK-MB, troponin I and myoglobin after intervention • Occurrence of any vascular/bleeding complications • “Point of care” evaluation of platelet reactivity at different time points in the two arms

  8. ARMYDA-4 Inclusion criteria - Pts on chronic therapy with clopidogrel (> 10 days) with stable angina or non-STE ACS undergoing PCIExclusion criteria- Primary PCI- Platelet count <70x103/ml- Pts at high risk of bleeding- Coronary by-pass grafting in the previous 3 months

  17. CONCLUSIONS • The ARMYDA-4 trial indicates that a pre-PCI 600 mg loading does not confer additional clinical benefit in patients already receiving chronic therapy with clopidogrel • Point of care aggregometry testing shows no significant differences in platelet reactivity in the 2 arms • No increased bleeding risk is observed in the “reload” approach • Patients on chronic clopidogrel therapy can safely undergo PCI without need of further reload

  18. BACKGROUND • Several studies have demonstrated beneficial clinical effects of a 600 mg clopidogrel loading dose in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). • Laboratory evidence suggests that an additional pre-PCI 600 mg loading further decreases platelet aggregation in patients already on chronic treatment with clopidogrel. However, there are no clinical data on the safety and efficacy of this strategy.
