TRial to Assess Improvement in
Therapeutic Outcomes by Optimizing
Platelet InhibitioN with Prasugrel
TRITON-TIMI 38
AHA 2007
Orlando, Florida
Disclosure Statement:
The TRITON-TIMI 38 trial was supported by a research grant to the
Brigham and Women’s Hospital from Daiichi Sankyo Co. Ltd and Eli Lilly & Co.
Antiplatelet Therapy
for PCI
• Dual antiplatelet Rx (ASA + thienopyridine) is
standard of care:
Ticlopidine
Clopidogrel
• Clinical need to improve on benefits observed
with clopidogrel
• Prasugrel
Novel thienopyridine
Efficient generation of active metabolite
High levels of IPA achieved rapidly
High IPA in clopidogrel “hyporesponders”

Study Goals
1. To test the hypothesis that higher and less
variable IPA prevents clinical ischemic
events.
2. To evaluate the safety of a regimen that
produces higher IPA.
These goals were achieved by evaluating
the efficacy and safety of prasugrel
compared to clopidogrel in mod/high risk
patients with ACS undergoing PCI on a
background of ASA.

Efficacy
1. A significant reduction in:
