Implementation of a Reference-Scaled Average Bioequivalence Approach for Highly Variable Acetylsalicylic Acid in Fixed-Dose Combination with Clopidogrel Versus Enteric Aspirin in Chinese Subjects Under Fasting Conditions: A Phase 1, Open-Label, Randomized, Crossover Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Dual antiplatelet therapy, aspirin and a P2Y₁₂ inhibitor, is recommended to prevent thrombotic complications of acute coronary syndrome. Clopidogrel plus acetylsalicylic acid combination is the most commonly used dual antiplatelet therapy recommended by international guidelines and in Chinese clinical practice. Poor adherence to dual antiplatelet therapy or premature interruption of dual antiplatelet therapy is an important contributor to cardiovascular mortality and lethal cardiovascular events. Clopidogrel + acetylsalicylic acid fixed-dose combination enhances adherence to dual antiplatelet therapy. Herein, we aimed to evaluate bioequivalence of acetylsalicylic acid and clopidogrel in fixed-dose combination compared with simultaneous administration of thei
