Primary Outcome(s)
Main Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability of E5555 in patients with coronary artery disease.
Primary end point(s): The primary goal of this study is to assess the effect of E5555 on general safety and
tolerability in high risk patients with coronary artery disease especially the risk of bleeding. The primary outcome will be the proportions of subjects with CEC-adjudicated bleeds. Cross-classification tables of CEC-adjudicated major bleeds vs treatment groups will be created. Safety and tolerability will be determined by comparison of SAEs, treatment emergent AE, treatment emergent abnormal laboratory values, and ECG changes in the three treatment groups with those in the placebo group.
The secondary endpoint used to assess efficacy issues between the treatment groups will be the proportion of subjects with CEC-adjudicated MACE events.
Exploratory parameters: To determine possible anti-inflammatory effects of E5555, the inflammatory marker hsCRP will be measured at Baseline and Weeks 2, 4, 12, 16, 20, 24, and 28. Summary estimates of other biomarkers may be created to explore the efficacy differences between the treatment groups. ANOVA or ANCOVA (if necessary to adjust for Baseline) models will be used to compare the continuous biomarkers and Fischer's exact test will be used to compare the exact proportions of subject differences in the categorical biomarkers. A regression model will be created for the platelet aggregation and demographic and inflammatory biomarkers as covariates. A Bayesian model under various prior distribution assumptions may also be employed to better understand the bleeding episode profile.
Secondary Objective: To determine the effect of E5555 on (a) the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular effects (MACE) (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke and refractory ischemia) and b) platelet aggregation inhibition (in qualified sites in subjects willing to take part in this component of the study). The exploratory objective being pursued is to determine the effect of E5555 on the endovascular inflammatory processes that are believed to be integral to the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease. In addition, the pharmacokinetics of E5555 and its metabolites will be determined. Qualified sites will conduct comprehensive plasma sample collection for measurement of levels of E5555 and its metabolites to evaluate the relationship between E5555 pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
