Study Start Date: September 2008
Estimated Study Completion Date: December 2012
Estimated Primary Completion Date: December 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: Clopidogrel Drug: Clopidogrel
Patients on clopidogrel therapy at 6 months after implantation of a drug-eluting stent will be randomized to an additional 6 month period of clopidogrel 75mg per day
Other Names:
  • Plavix
  • ACT-Code: B01AC/04
Placebo Comparator: Placebo Drug: Placebo
Patients randomized in this group will receive placebo for 6 months.

Detailed Description:

Drug elution from stent struts is associated with less smooth muscle cell proliferation and delayed stent strut re-endothelialization. Thus it seems conceivable that a longer duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (aspirin and clopidogrel) after DES implantation is needed. However, no studies have been done to investigate which is the optimal antiplatelet therapy duration after DES implantation. Therefore, the objective of the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled ISAR-SAFE study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a 6 month versus a 12 month duration of clopidogrel therapy after DES implantation.

Patients on clopidogrel therapy at least 6 months after DES implantation, who do not require a reintervention will be randomized to an additional 6 month period of clopidogrel or placebo. The patients will be followed-up for 9 months after randomization.
