Brief Summary:
The TAXUS Libertē Post-Approval Study is an FDA-mandated prospective, multi-center study designed to collect real-world safety and clinical outcomes in approximately 4,200 patients receiving one or more TAXUS Liberté Paclitaxel-Eluting Stents and prasugrel as part of a dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) drug regimen.
This study will also contribute patient data to an FDA-requested and industry-sponsored research study that will evaluate the optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT Study).
Detailed Description:
The TAXUS Libertē Post-Approval Study is an FDA-mandated prospective, multi-center study designed to collect real-world safety and clinical outcomes in approximately 4,200 patients receiving one or more TAXUS Liberté Paclitaxel-Eluting Stents and prasugrel as part of a dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) drug regimen. This is a consecutively-enrolled study with patient follow-up through 3 years post index procedure. This study also will contribute patient data to an FDA-requested and industry-sponsored research study that will evaluate the optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT Study). To facilitate this patient data contribution, patients will be assigned to patient groups based upon their co-morbidities and stented lesions identified post index procedure.
All enrolled patients who have been treated with the TAXUS Liberté Stent will be assigned to 12 months of open-label prasugrel treatment and aspirin. Upon completion of the open-label period, patients who are clear of events at 12 months post index procedure will be randomized 1:1 to either a placebo or prasugrel for an additional 18 months of treatment. All patients will receive aspirin therapy throughout the course of the study.
