lopidogrel in nstable Angina to Prevent ecurrent vents
Disclaimer • This slide kit presents new data to support the rationale for the use of ADP receptor antagonists for approved and unapproved indications. • The slide kit has been prepared for medical and scientific purposes. It contains information on a use that is not approved by the FDA and should not be construed as an inducement to use clopidogrel for unapproved indications. Neither Sanofi-Synthelabo Inc., Bristol-Myers Squibb nor the partnership recommends the use of clopidogrel in any manner inconsistent with that described in the full prescribing information.
Rationale • Despite treatment with aspirin and heparin, the incidence of MI and CV death during hospitalization remains high, 6-8% • Long term, the incidence of these events remain high at 6-8% per year • The majority of patients (80%) who enter the hospital with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are already on aspirin therapy • The negative findings of the oral GP IIb/IIIa’s underscores the need for alternative strategies to treat ACS CURE Study Investigators.

Study Objectives • Primary • Evaluate the early and long-term efficacy of clopidogrel vs placebo, both given in addition to aspirin and other standard therapy in preventing ischemic complications in patients with ACS without ST-segment elevation (unstable angina or non-ST-segment elevation MI) • Secondary • Evaluate the safety of clopidogrel in combination with ASA therapy in patients with ACS CURE Study Investigators.

Definition of Bleeding • Bleeding was defined as “Major” and “Minor” • Major bleeding was defined as follows: • life threatening: fatal, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, leading to a drop in hemoglobin of at least 5 g/dL, significant hypotention requiring IV inotropes, requiring surgical intervention, or requiring transfusion of 4 or more units of blood • non-life-threatening: substantially disabling, intraocular bleeding leading to vision loss, or requiring at least 2 units of blood • Minor • any other bleeds that led to interruption of study medication The CURE Trial Investigators.

N Engl J Med. 2001;345:494-502. † Up to 12 months
Conclusions • Minor bleeding was increased, but there was no increase in life-threatening bleeds (including intracranial bleeds) • 18% Relative Risk Reduction in heart failure (P = 0.03) • Significant reductions in the reported use of: • IV GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor: 18% (P = 0.003) • thrombolytics: 43% (P < 0.001) The CURE Trial Investigators.

PCI-CURE Design • Prospectively designed study of patients undergoing PCI who were randomized to double-blind therapy with clopidogrel or placebo, both in addition to aspirin and other standard therapy in the CURE trial • Objectives • to test the hypothesis that pre-treatment with clopidogrel in addition to aspirin and other standard therapy would be more effective than aspirin and standard therapy alone in preventing major ischemic events within the first 30 days after PCI • to determine if long-term treatment (up to 1 year) with clopidogrel in addition to aspirin and other standard therapy after PCI would provide additional clinical benefit Mehta, SR. et al for the CURE Trial Investigators. Lancet. August 2001;21:2033-41.
PCI-CURE Study Design • Patients randomized to clopidogrel or placebo at CURE trial entry, both in addition to aspirin and standard therapy • All patients undergoing PCI during the course of the CURE trial were included in PCI-CURE • Timing of PCI was at the physician’s discretion • At time of PCI, study drug was interrupted and open-label therapy was initiated for 2-4 weeks • During open-label therapy, thienopyridines in combination with ASA was permitted • Follow-up ranged from 3-12 months Mehta, SR. et al for the CURE Trial Investigators.
