Scientific titleDevelopment and validation of a risk scoring model to predict net adverse cardiovascular outcomes after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients pretreated with 600 mg clopidogrel, rationale and design of the RISK-PCI study
Study acronymRISK-PCI
Study objectivesThe primary hypothesis of the trial is that an accurate prediction of net adverse cardiovascular outcomes (NACE) at presentation may result in a significant reduction of NACE after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI).
Ethics approval(s)The study was approved by a Local Research Ethics Committee of the School of Medicine, University of Belgrade on the 21st February 2008 (ref: No 470/II-4).
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedAcute ST elevation myocardial infarction
InterventionRecruitment for this study began on the 1st February 2006. The completion of enrolment is expected in summer 2009.

The first 1,166 consecutive patients will enter the study set, while the further 584 patients will enter the validation set. Risk factors and scores derived from the study set will be tested in the validation set. Primary PCI and stenting of the infarction-related artery (IRA) is performed according to standard technique via femoral approach. Flow grades are assessed according to TIMI criteria. Procedural success is defined as Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction-3 (TIMI-3) flow and <30% stenosis after intervention. Drug-eluting stents (DES) are encouraged in selected patients with in-stent restenosis, diabetes mellitus, very long or bifurcation lesions.

Before pPCI, 300 mg aspirin and 600 mg clopidogrel are administered to all eligible patients. Unfractionated heparin is started as 60 IU/kg bolus; the 12 U/kg/h infusion follows during the next 24 hours in uncomplicated patients or longer if clinically indicated. The dose is based on the activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (PTT). 40 mg proton-pump inhibitor pantoprazol or 50 mg H2-blocker ranitidine are given intravenously to all patients before pPCI; a peroral treatment follows (40 mg pantoprazol/day or 50 mg ranitidine/day) during the next 2-3 days. Enoxiparin sodium (100 anti-Xa IU/kg every 12 hours) is used subcutaneously in patients under 75 years who failed to reach the therapeutic aPTT with standard heparin treatment, those who did not receive GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor, and those with renal failure (creatinine clearance <60 ml/min). In selected patients with visible intracoronary thrombi, GP IIb/IIIa receptor inhibitor tirofiban - the dose based on body weight (25 µg/kg bolus followed by 18- to 24-hour 0.15 µg/kg/min infusion), adjusted for renal impairment (half of the usual infusion dose if creatinine clearance <60 ml/min) - is administered during the pPCI. Aspirin, clopidogrel, beta-blockers, lipid-lowering agents and ACE inhibitors are used after pPCI, according to current guidelines. Patients who show clinical signs of heart failure are treated with digitalis, diuretics, or inotropic agents at the discretion of investigators. Bleeding patients are treated with blood product transfusion if haemoglobin is <10 g/dL. If necessary, one or both antiplatelet agents will be discontinued.

Temporary pacemaker is placed in all patients with high-grade AV block or bradiarrhythmia and hemodynamic compromise. Intra-aortic balloon pump is used in patients who progress to Killip IV heart failure. If bleeding is life-threatening, surgery may be performed.

Patients are followed-up at 30 days and at 1 year after enrolment, on the intention-to-treat principle. Follow-up data are obtained by telephone interviews.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measure1. Risk score for composite major adverse cardiac events (MACE) including death, nonfatal reinfarction, ischaemic stroke and target vessel revascularisation (efficacy endpoint)
2. Risk score for major bleeding (safety endpoint)
Secondary outcome measuresEfficacy:
1. Individual components of MACE
2. Stent thrombosis

Safety:
3. Incidence of bleeding according to the TIMI and GUSTO classification
4. Need for transfusions
5. Withdrawal of dual antiplatelet therapy
