Study to Assess Safety and Efficacy of Ticagrelor (AZD6140) Versus Clopidogrel in Asian/Japanese Patients With Non-ST or ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS)

The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy (prevention of vascular events) and safety (especially bleedings) of Ticagrelor (AZD6140) compared with Clopidogrel, both given on top of low dose aspirin, in Asian/Japanese patients with acute coronary syndrome and a planned percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Major and Minor Bleeding

    Time frame: Ongoing up to12 months

    Time to first occurrence of any major or minor bleeding event (adjudicated by an independent Clinical Endpoint Committee (ICEC)). 1-year event rate (%) estimated via Kaplan-Meier method.

  2. Composite of All-cause Mortality, MI or Stroke

    Time frame: Ongoing up to 12 months

    Time to first occurrence of any event from the composite of death from any causes, Myocardial Infarction (MI) and stroke (adjudicated by an ICEC). 1-year event rate (%) estimated via Kaplan-Meier method.
