About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Sarpogrelate in endothelial progenitor cells of patients with atherosclerosis.

Read the detailed description

Endothelial progenitor cells play an important role in vasculogenesis and vascular repair. Sarpogrelate, a inhibitor of HT2A, is used an an anti-platelet drug, however, a direct effect in vascular cells is supposed.

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The number and function of endothelial progenitor cells (time frame: 3 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.
