Filter by:Clopidogrel has been to be reported to be superior to aspirin for the prevention of thromboembolic complications associated with coil embolization in patients with ruptured aneurysms.
This study will involve healthy volunteers and patients with Type 2 diabetes. Eligible healthy volunteers will be invited to enroll into one of two protocols (A or B) and eligible patients with diabetes will be enrolled into protocol A.
The pilot PARTUM trial is a randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled trial. Women who are at modest risk of VTE (as defined by the inclusion criteria) will be identified during pregnancy, labor and delivery and up to 48 hours postpartum. Eligible and consenting participants will be randomly assigned to one of two study arms: aspirin 81 mg daily or placebo daily for 6 weeks.
China has the largest burden of cerebrovascular disease in the world. About 60% to 80% of which are ischemic stroke. In recent years, stroke has replaced heart disease and tumor diseases as the first cause of death and disability in adult population. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of indobufen treatment in reducing the risk of a 3-month new stroke (any type of stroke, including ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke) for patients with moderate/severe ischemic stroke is not inferior to aspirin therapy.
Some aspirin-treated patients have a blunted pharmacological response predisposing to clinical failure. The investigators hypothesize that the blunted response often results from increased rate of platelet production and some failures will be prevented by administering aspirin twice daily. The overall objective is to develop a valid method to quantify platelet production (without the use of radioactive isotopes) in order to examine the hypothesis that enhanced platelet production is a common cause of poor aspirin responsiveness in patients with atherothrombosis.
Recent guidelines of the ACC/AHA suggest that elective non-cardiac surgery (NCS) should optimally be delayed one year after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stent (DES). Regarding the antiplatelet agents, dual antiplatelet therapy, or at least aspirin is recommended to be continued considering the relative risk of bleeding and stent thrombosis especially during the first 4 to 6 weeks after DES implantation. However, these recommendations are based upon insufficient and conflicting evidences.
Low-dose aspirin is a cornerstone in the secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and is usually taken on awakening, although evidence regarding optimal time of intake is lacking. Platelet reactivity follows a circadian rhythm, with a peak in the morning, contributing to the morning peak of cardiovascular disease. Due to its short half life, aspirin only inhibits platelets which are present at the time of intake. Thus, the timing of aspirin intake may influence its inhibitory effect on platelets and intake of aspirin at bedtime may attenuate the morning peak of platelet reactivity. The time-dependent effect of aspirin on circadian rhythm of platelet function has never been studied before. We hypothesize that aspirin intake at bedtime compared with intake on awakening results in a reduction of the morning peak in platelet reactivity.
In this non-interventional one year study, data about overall and particularly gastrointestinal tolerability, indications, cardiovascular risk factors and compliance are collected by basic questionnaires, which are handed out by pharmacists to patients who acquire (in Germany no prescription is needed) Rx (Prescription) or OTC (Over-The-counter) Aspirin protect (enteric coated aspirin) 100 mg and are willing to participate in the study. After 3, 6, 9 and 12 months follow-up questionnaires are sent out. Aim of the study is to get information about safety, usage and compliance under everyday's conditions, because in Germany low-dose aspirin is an OTC product with Rx indication.
The purpose of this study is to assess the the 1-year rates of ischemic and bleeding complications in patients whose dual antiplatelet therapy regimen post-PCI has been determined with the use of a clinical algorithm that includes both clinical risks and platelet reactivity while on chronic clopidogrel therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of clopidogrel or aspirin reactivity as measured by a point-of-care platelet function assay on thrombotic or bleeding events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug eluting or bare metal stent. Methods: Platelet reactivity on clopidogrel and aspirin therapy is measured before PCI with VerifyNow (Accumetrics Inc.,San Diego, CA, USA) P2Y12 or aspirin assay respectively in 1000 consecutive patients from 20 centers in France undergoing coronary angioplasty with stent. Exclusion criteria are: Acute myocardial infarction, treatment with vitamin K antagonists and the use of antiGP2b3a before PCI. All patients are pre-treated with clopidogrel and aspirin. Non-response to aspirin or clopidogrel is determined according to the result of the VerifyNow assay (cut off : < 15 % for P2Y12 and > 550 ARU for aspirin). The primary end point is the occurrence of definite or probable stent thrombosis (ARC definition) and the secondary end-points include global and cardio-vascular mortality, non fatal myocardial infarction and major bleeding. A clinical evaluation is scheduled at discharge and by telephone contact at one month and one year.
