  • Functional study (exercise, or pharmacologic) within the past 8 weeks consistent with ischemia as manifested by at least one of the following:
  • A reversible defect on nuclear imaging.
  • A reversible wall-motion abnormality by echocardiography.
  • Horizontal or down-sloping ST-depressions greater than 1 mm on electrocardiogram (ECG) (if no imaging performed).

  • A cardiac catheterization with at least one coronary artery lesion amenable to PCI (not yet performed) within 14 days prior to enrollment.

Exclusion criteria

Primary outcomes

  1. Inhibition of Platelet Aggregation (IPA) to 20 Micromolar (μM) Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) at 6 Hours After the Loading Dose

    Time frame: 6 hours after loading dose

    IPA was defined as (1 - [maximal platelet aggregation(MPA) at 6 hours after study drug treatment]/[MPA before drug treatment]) x 100.

  2. Inhibition of Platelet Aggregation to 20 μM Adenosine Diphosphate After 14 Days of Maintenance Dose Treatment

    Time frame: after 14 days of maintenance dosing

    Measures IPA during maintenance dosing before and after cross-over for each therapy.

    IPA was defined as (1 - [maximal platelet aggregation(MPA) at 14 days after study drug treatment]/[MPA before drug treatment]) x 100.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Inhibition of Platelet Aggregation to 20 μM Adenosine Diphosphate at 2 Hours After the Loading Dose

    Time frame: 2 hours after loading dose

    IPA was defined as (1 - [maximal platelet aggregation (MPA) at 2 hours after study drug treatment]/[MPA before drug treatment]) x 100.

  2. Number of Participants With Non-Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Major or Minor Bleeding During the First Maintenance Dose Phase

    Time frame: after 14 days of treatment (before cross-over)

    Non-CABG-related TIMI major bleeding was any intracranial hemorrhage OR any clinically overt bleeding associated with a fall in hemoglobin >=5 gm/dL.

    Non-CABG-related TIMI minor bleeding was any clinically overt bleeding associated with a fall in hemoglobin >=3 gm/dL but <5 gm/dL.

  3. Number of Participants With Non-Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Major or Minor Bleeding During the Crossover Maintenance Dose Phase

    Time frame: 14 days after cross-over

    Non-CABG-related TIMI major bleeding was any intracranial hemorrhage OR any clinically overt bleeding associated with a fall in hemoglobin >=5 gm/dL.

    Non-CABG-related TIMI minor bleeding was any clinically overt bleeding associated with a fall in hemoglobin >=3 gm/dL but <5 gm/dL.

  4. Number of Participants With Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) During the First Maintenance Dose Phase

    Time frame: after 14 days of treatment (before cross-over)

    Number of patients who met any of the following endpoints: cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, subacute stent thrombosis, or urgent target vessel revascularization

  5. Number of Participants With Major Adverse Cardiac Events During the Crossover Maintenance Dose Phase

    Time frame: 14 days after cross-over

    Number of patients who met any of the following endpoints: cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, subacute stent thrombosis, or urgent target vessel revascularization

  6. Number of Hyporesponsive Participants at 6 Hours After the Loading Dose

    Time frame: 6 hours after loading dose

    Number of patients with inhibition of platelet aggregation (IPA) with 20 uM adenosine diphosphate (ADP) <20%

  7. Number of Hyporesponsive Participants at the End of the First Maintenance Dose Phase

    Time frame: From loading dose to day 15

    Number of patients with inhibition of platelet aggregation (IPA) with 20 uM adenosine diphosphate (ADP) <20%

  8. Number of Hyporesponsive Participants at the End of the Crossover Maintenance Dose Phase

    Time frame: 14 days after cross-over

  9. Platelet Reactivity Index Percent (PRI%) Measured by Vasodilator-stimulated Phosphoprotein (VASP) at 2 Hours After the Loading Dose

    Time frame: 2 hours after loading dose

    VASP phosphorylation in response to prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) with and without ADP was determined by whole-blood flow cytometry and was expressed as a platelet reactivity index (PRI). PRI was defined as [(MFI(with PGE1) - MFI (with PGE1 and ADP))/MFI(with PGE1) x 100] where MFI is mean fluorescence index. A lower PRI indicates greater antiplatelet effect.

    Time frame: 18 to 24 hours after loading dose

    VASP phosphorylation in response to prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) with and without ADP was determined by whole-blood flow cytometry and was expressed as a platelet reactivity index (PRI). PRI was defined as [(MFI(with PGE1) - MFI (with PGE1 and ADP))/MFI(with PGE1) x 100] where MFI is mean flourescence index. A lower PRI indicates greater antiplatelet effect.

    Time frame: after 14 days of maintenance dosing

    VASP phosphorylation in response to prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) with and without ADP was determined by whole-blood flow cytometry and was expressed as a platelet reactivity index (PRI). PRI was defined as [(MFI(with PGE1) - MFI (with PGE1 and ADP))/MFI(with PGE1) x 100] where MFI is mean fluorescence index. A lower PRI indicates greater antiplatelet effect.
