Study Summary

This trial is to study the effects of ticagrelor on platelet aggregation and endothelial function in diabetic patients with stable coronary artery disease.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for diabetic patients with stable coronary artery disease, including various types of angina or those asymptomatic on therapy. It's not for individuals who recently had acute coronary syndromes, plan to use certain heart medications during the study, have low platelet counts or kidney function, severe heart failure, a history of bleeding issues, or allergies to Ticagrelor or clopidogrel.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests different doses of Ticagrelor against a standard dose of clopidogrel in preventing blood clots and improving endothelial function (which helps regulate blood pressure) in diabetic patients with stable heart disease. The goal is to see if lower doses of Ticagrelor are more beneficial than the usual treatment with clopidogrel.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include increased risk of bleeding due to the anti-clotting nature of both drugs. Patients may also experience shortness of breath or allergic reactions specific to each medication.

What conditions does ticagrelor help alleviate?

"Ticagrelor is often used to manage myocardial infarction, however it can also be taken as a preventative measure for those with stent placement, cerebrovascular accident, or coronary artery disease."

Answered by AI

Are there any specific inclusionary criteria for this research?

"Sixty patients experiencing coronary artery disease, aged 18 to 75, who meet the following requirements may participate in this study: having stable angina, low-risk unstable angina, variant angina, or being asymptomatic with appropriate therapy which includes percutaneous coronary intervention."

Answered by AI

Can you please share what prior research has been conducted on ticagrelor?
