About this study

Single center randomized parallel group study to determine if:

  1. there is a temporary increase in platelet reactivity after abrupt discontinuation of clopidogrel due to a potential rebound phenomenon.
  2. the effect of sudden discontinuation of clopidogrel 6 months post coronary angioplasty with adjunct drug eluting stent implantation compared to 12 month continuation of clopidogrel on platelet reactivity. And the association with MACE up to 12 months post coronary angioplasty.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Disease, run by Medstar Health Research Institute at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 May 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine if there is a temporary increase in platelet reactivity after abrupt discontinuation of clopidogrel due to a potential rebound phenomenon (time frame: Up to 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 31 May 2010.
