Trial summary

To investigate the effect of different dosages of aspirin on platelet aggregation and to determine the possible mechanisms of aspirin resistance, we intend to compare the effects of low, medium dose aspirin with clopidogrel (an alternative antiplatelet agent) in patients after coronary artery bypass surgery.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00262275, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Jan 2016.
