  Purpose

Acute myocardial infarction is generally caused by a thrombotic occlusion of coronary arteries. Primary aim of early therapy is a fast and complete reperfusion of the infarcted myocardium, which can be achieved by either thrombolytic therapy or primary PCI.

Primary PCI is facilitated if the flow in the target vessel is restored prior to the intervention. In addition the results of recent trials hint that clinical outcome is improved by a patent infarct-vessel before primary PCI. The CIPAMI-study analyses the effect of an early administration of Clopidogrel on the flow-rates in subjects who suffered an acute myocardial infarction. For this purpose they are divided into two groups, both receiving standard baseline treatment. The subjects of one group additionally receive 600mg of Clopidogrel, as early as possible, while the subjects in the second group receive standard therapy. In the second group Clopidogrel is not allowed before initial angiography.

In both groups the flow-rates before and after PCI are analysed and compared in order to evaluate the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of the administration of a high loading dose Clopidogrel in the very early phase of STEMI in the prehospital setting.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • TIMI 2/3 patency of the infarct-related artery immediately prior to PCI [ Time Frame: Assessment at primary PCI, asap after inclusion of the subject ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • TIMI 3 patency before PCI [ Time Frame: Assessment before primary PCI, asap after inclusion of the subject ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • TIMI 3 patency after PCI [ Time Frame: Assessment at primary PCI, asap after inclusion of the subject ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • ST resolution immediately before angiography and 60-90 minutes after PCI [ Time Frame: Assessment immediately before angiography until 90 minutes after PCI ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Death, re-MI, urgent revascularisation until 48 hours and until hospital discharge [ Time Frame: Starting with inclusion of the subject until day 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Stroke (hemorrhagic, non-hemorrhagic) [ Time Frame: Starting with inclusion of the subject until day 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Severe bleeding complications according to the TIMI classification [ Time Frame: Starting with inclusion of the subject until day 7 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 654
Study Start Date: October 2006
Estimated Study Completion Date: December 2009
Estimated Primary Completion Date: November 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
