About this study

Official title: EndoTic - Endothelium and Ticagrelor: Pharmacological Effects Beyond Antiplatelet Therapy

Randomized clinical trial to assess the influence of treatment with ticagrelor or clopidogrel in the number of CECs (Circulating Endothelial Cells) and EPCs (Endothelial Progenitor Cells) in patients with ACS (Acute Coronary Syndrome), from baseline levels to chronic levels (1 month).

Read the detailed description

ACS Patients in both treatment groups will be assessed:

Baseline, 48h and 1 month cell counts will be done for CECs and EPCs Platelet Function at 48h and 1month Adverse Events, ECG and blood testing result will be also collected

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ticagrelor vs Clopidogrel in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS), run by Fundación Investigación Sanitaria en León at 3 sites in Spain.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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 23 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Spain. 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?

Number of cells (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Nov 2016.
