Platelet Aggregation Inhibitory Effects and Pharmacokinetics of Prasugrel Used in Combination With Aspirin in Healthy Japanese Subjects.


ABSTRACT: We evaluated the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of prasugrel used in combination with aspirin in healthy Japanese subjects. All subjects received aspirin 100 mg/day. Subsequently, in the single-administration study, 23 subjects also received prasugrel 20 or 30 mg, and in the multiple-administration study, 20 subjects received a loading dose of prasugrel 20 or 30 mg on day 1, followed by a maintenance dose of prasugrel 5 or 7.5 mg/day, respectively, on days 2-5. In both studies, the plasma concentration of the active metabolite of prasugrel, R-138727, reached a maximum 0.5 hours after administration and rapidly decreased within 4 hours. In the single-administration study, the inhibitory effect on adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet aggregation was significantly higher in the prasugrel 20- and 30-mg groups than in the placebo group at all times (1-144 hours) after administration. In the multiple-administration study, a similar antiplatelet effect was found after both the loading dose and the maintenance dose and was maintained for 3-6 days after the last administration. There were study drug-related adverse events; however, all were mild, and none was clinically significant.
