Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Hemodynamically stable patients with obstructive coronary heart disease and planned coronary stent implantation. Pretreatment with aspirin (=100mg daily or loading dose of 400mg before coronary angiography). Age = 18 years. Written informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Acute myocardial infarction Treatment with P2Y12-receptor inhibitor, fibrinolysis, or GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor within 7 days before enrollment. Contraindication for treatment with aspirin, cangrelor, clopidogrel, ticagrelor or prasugrel according to EMEA label (in particular: active bleeding, history of stroke or TIA).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Randomized comparison of the pharmacodynamic effectiveness of different loading regimes with P2Y12 receptor antagonists for transitioning from cangrelor given either together with cangrelor immediately before coronary intervention (prasugrel 60mg, ticagrelor 180mg) or immediately after discontinuation of cangrelor (clopidogrel 600mg). Primary endpoint is the proportion of patients with a platelet aggregation of less than 468 AU x min (Multiplate Test, Roche Diagnostics) tested 1 hours after discontinuation of cangrelor.;Secondary Objective: Evaluation of further platelet function parameters and timepoints. Evaluation of clinical safety endpoints of the different loading regimes with P2Y12 receptor antagonists.;Primary end point(s): Proportion of patients with ADP-induced platelet function less than 468 AU x min (Multiplate Test, Roche Diagnostics).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1 hour after discontinuation of cangrelor. Additional analyses for 0.5, 1.5, 2 hours and day 1 after discontinuation of cangrelor.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Evaluation of further platelet function parameters and timepoints. Incidence of ischemic (death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, urgent coronary revascularization, stroke) and bleeding endpoints (BARC criteria). Impact of genetic and clinical variables on the pharmacodynamic response to different loading regimes.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Bleeding and ischemic endpoints: up to 30 days following enrollment. Pharmacodynamic response: 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 hours and day 1 after discontinuation of cangrelor.
