Primary Objectives

Primary Objective

To test the hypothesis that vorapaxar will ↓ athero- thrombotic events in stable pts w/ atherosclerosis treated for ≥1 yr in addition to standard therapy.

Parallel Scientific Objectives

To test the hypotheses that …

  • 1. antagonism of PAR1 is a valuable novel target
  • 2. adding a new antiplatelet agent to ASA is

effective for long-term 2° prevention in stable pts

DSMB Action

January, 2011, the DSMB announced that based on its ongoing review of safety: – ↑ ICH with vorapaxar in pts w/ a prior stroke  D/C all pts with a prior stroke – Trial should continue in pts without a hx of stroke Analyses

  • 1st line analysis in all patients, including stroke
  • 2nd line analysis (new): pts w/out prior stroke
  • Special interest in patients who qualified w/ MI

Summary

When added to standard of care, including aspirin & thienopyridine, in stable pts w/ hx atherothrombosis, vorapaxar significantly …

  • ↓ CV death, MI, or stroke
  • ↑ mod & severe bleeding, including ICH

In addition, our findings indicate …

  • significant ↓ in thrombosis adding to standard

rx, including ASA, for long-term rx in pts with prior MI

  • unacceptable ICH risk in pts with prior stroke
  • uncertain benefit in pts with PAD

** CONFIDENTIAL FINAL DRAFT / EMBARGOED **

slide-23
SLIDE 23

Conclusions

  • 1. PAR-1 antagonism is an effective

approach to reducing recurrent atherothrombosis

  • 2. More intensive antiplatelet therapy for

long-term 2° prevention reduces recurrent thrombosis in patients with prior MI

  • 3. Patient selection is necessary to balance

the antithrombotic benefit vs. risk of bleeding
