Normal Donor Blood Draws for Platelet Studies and Biomarker Evaluation (ND-PLT)
- Conditions
- Healthy
- Registration Number
- NCT05628974
- Lead Sponsor
- The Cleveland Clinic
- Brief Summary
This is a single-center study at the Cleveland Clinic Main Campus designed to study biomarkers in healthy individuals to identify novel mechanisms of platelet activation and how platelets drive vascular inflammation and thrombosis in diseases.
- Detailed Description
Our past studies have discovered novel platelet activation pathways that may be targets of therapeutic development. We have also defined an important role for a shift in platelet phenotype in vascular disease. Our studies use both in vivo animal models and validation using human platelets from isolated blood. Platelets from healthy individuals may be compared to patients with vascular diseases in the IRB approved protocol "Vascular Lab Resource" (IRB #19-1451) study which is actively recruiting patients at the Cleveland Clinic Main Campus and studies patients with vascular diseases.
