Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The fatality of stent thrombosis (ST) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is approximately 50% and clopidogrel is an important anti-platelet drug for prevention of ST. CAD patients implanted with stent including bare metal stent (BMS) and drug eluting stent (DES) are recommended to receive dual anti-platelet treatment (DAPT), i.e. clopidogrel along with aspirin, for at least one year to reduce the incidence of ST by up-to-date guidelines. However, due to the variability of anti-platelet effect of clopidogrel, regular dose (75 mg daily) of clopidogrel administered cannot achieve enough inhibition of platelet aggregation in 20-30% of total patients, which is named as clopidogrel low responsiveness (CLR), and the morbidity of thrombosis (including) in CAD patients is still 10%.
Ticagrelor, a cyclopentyl-triazolo-pyrimidine, is a more potent adenosine diphosphate (ADP) receptor antagonist with faster onset and more significantly higher inhibition of platelet aggregation compared with clopidogrel and directly acts on P2Y12-ADP receptor in platelets without process of hepatic metabolism. In the PLATO study, ticagrelor plus reduced the remarkable incidence of cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) without significant higher incidence of major bleeding events compared with clopidogrel plus aspirin. Surprisingly, the incidence of death due to cardiovascular causes and the total fatality was decreased in patients with ticagrelor plus aspirin compared with those with clopidogrel plus aspirin. The results suggested the more benefit brought by ticagrelor, highlighting the wide use of it in the future.
Due to the potent anti-platelet effect of ticagrelor, more bleeding events may occur. Additionally, when facing the need for cardiac or non-cardiac operation, occurrence of life-threatening bleeding event or necessity of emergency operation, doctors may be confused of the treatment for the patients taking ticagrelor, of which the half-life period is 8-9 hours and it suggests the importance of studying the reversal of the anti-platelet effects of ticagrelor.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the proportion of untreated donor platelets required to fully reverse the platelet inhibitory effects of aspirin and ticagrelor in healthy persons and patients with coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and receiving ticagrelor.
Study Population:
The investigators design two cohort studies, and plan to enroll 32 healthy volunteers in cohort 1 and 16 patients with coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and receiving dual anti-platelet therapy (ticagrelor 90mg bid + aspirin 100mg daily) for 7 days
Cohort 1:
Randomization:
A total of 32 healthy volunteers are planned to be enrolled and will be randomly divided into three groups: single anti-platelet treatment group (A group, 8 of 32), dual anti-platelet treatment group (B group, 8 of 32) and control group (C group, 16 of 32).
1. Single anti-platelet treatment group: (Ticagrelor 90mg bid) × 7 days
2. Dual anti-platelet treatment group: (Ticagrelor 90mg bid + Aspirin 100mg daily) × 7 days
3. Control group: No anti-platelet therapy
Inclusion criteria:
1. Healthy volunteers
2. Participants aged \>18 years old
Exclusion criteria:
1. Allergy or intolerance to aspirin or ticagrelor;
2. Subjects at a high risk of bleeding (e.g. platelet count\<100×10\^9/L, history of peptic ulcer, hemoglobin\<110g/L);
3. Subjects with bronchial asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease;
4. Subjects with bradycardia (e.g. sick sinus syndrome, high-grade atrioventricular block, history of syncope with unproved uncorrelation with bradycardia);
5. Smokers;
6. Subjects with diabetes mellitus;
7. Subjects planning to be pregnancy;
8. Subjects with hepatic or renal dysfunction;
9. Subjects who have taken other anti-platelet drugs, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or proton pump inhibitors before scanning or need to take them during study period.
Blood collection and sample preparation
Venous blood samples are collected by venipuncture into two 4.5-mL draw BD vacutainer tubes containing 0.105M buffered sodium citrate (3.2%) at 08.00 hours in the morning before taking the agent and after the last dose of the study drug. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from subjects in A group is mixed with increasing proportions of that in C group, with one untreated subject serving as the control for one treated subject. The proportion of control platelets mixed with inhibited platelets is calculated based on platelet numbers, starting at 10% and increasing by 10% increments. So as the PRP in B group.
Test:
1. Before taking the agent:
1. ADP-induced platelet aggregation: light transmittance aggregation (LTA) in response to 5μM ADP
2. Arachidonic acid (AA)-induced platelet aggregation: LTA in response to 1mM AA
2. After 7-day medication:
1. ADP-induced platelet aggregation: LTA in response to 5μM ADP
2. AA-induced platelet aggregation: LTA in response to 1mM AA
3. ADP-induced platelet aggregation of mixed sample: LTA in response to 5μM ADP
4. AA-induced platelet aggregation of mixed sample: LTA in response to 1mM AA

Sample test for fresh platelet saved in blood bank
Function of platelet aggregation, platelet count, pH value and metabolic products (including PO2, PCO2, blood glucose, lactate, bicarbonate, sodium, potassium and chloride) are measured in fresh platelet sample preserved in blood bank for 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days respectively.
Blood collection and sample preparation for patients
Venous blood samples are collected by venipuncture into two 4.5-mL draw BD vacutainer tubes containing 0.105M buffered sodium citrate (3.2%) at 08.00 hours in the morning after taking the medicine. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from participants is mixed with increasing proportions of that extracted from fresh platelet sample reserved in blood bank for one day as the control for each treated subject. The proportion of control platelets mixed with inhibited platelets is calculated based on platelet numbers, starting at 10% and increasing by 10% increments. So as the PRP mixed with fresh platelet sample preserved for four days.
Test for sample from patients
1. Before mixture:
1. ADP-induced platelet aggregation: light transmittance aggregation (LTA) in response to 5μM ADP
2. Arachidonic acid (AA)-induced platelet aggregation: LTA in response to 1mM AA
2. After mixture:
1. ADP-induced platelet aggregation: LTA in response to 5μM ADP
2. AA-induced platelet aggregation: LTA in response to 1mM AA
Primary end points:
1\. Reversal of the platelet inhibitory effects of antiplatelet therapy Proportion of untreated donor platelets required to fully reverse the platelet inhibitory effects of antiplatelet therapy in patients with coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and receiving ticagrelor
Secondary end points:
1\. Relationship between function of platelet aggregation and the time of saving fresh platelet.
