Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Proportion of Clopidogrel Non-responders Who Responded to Clopidogrel or Ticagrelor. - Comparing Ticag. (Day 28 of Clop. to Ticag., and Day 14 of Ticag. to Clop.) Versus Clop. (Day 14 of Clop. to Ticag., and Day 28 of Ticag. to Clop.)
The primary definition of response to treatment is IPA >10% post treatment. The response is reported as percentage of participants of each treatment. Please refer to the protocol section for details about the interventions administered. IPA(%)=(PAb-PAt)/PAb*100. PA (platelet aggregation) is measured by LTA (Light Transmittance Aggregometry). PAb is the response at baseline (last measurement before study drug) and PAt is a response at post-treatment. IPA=0% means no PA inhibition and 100% means 100% PA inhibition.
Proportion of Clopidogrel Non-responders Who Responded to Clopidogrel or Ticagrelor. - Comparing Ticag. (Day 28 of Clop. to Ticag., and Day 14 of Ticag. to Clop.) Versus Clop. (Day 14 of Clop. to Ticag., and Day 28 of Ticag. to Clop.
The secondary definition of response to treatment is IPA >50% post treatment. The response is reported as percentage of participants of each treatment. Please refer to the protocol section for details about the interventions administered. IPA(%)=(PAb-PAt)/PAb*100. PA (platelet aggregation) is measured by LTA (Light Transmittance Aggregometry).

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to see how Ticagrelor, a new oral reversible anti-platelet medication, affects platelets. Anti-platelet agents are medications that block the formation of blood clots by preventing the clumping of platelets. Blood clots prevent us from bleeding, but when they form inside the arteries their formation is linked to a risk of medical problems such as heart attack and stroke. This study investigated the effect of Ticagrelor on inhibition of platelet aggregation compared with clopidogrel in patients previously identified as non-responsive to clopidogrel.
