- NCT03174990
- Lead Sponsor
- University of California, Davis
- Brief Summary
This study evaluates the effects of Aspirin and thienopyridine resistance in relation to clinical cardiovascular outcomes as the genetic predictors of, and outcomes associated with aspirin and thienopyridine resistance in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) currently remain unknown.
- Detailed Description
Although anti-platelet therapy is a cornerstone of PAD treatment, the investigators know very little about the prevalence, genetic determinants and clinical relevance of aspirin and thienopyridine resistance in PAD patients. The investigators expect to report on the prevalence of, and impact on outcomes from aspirin and/or thienopyridine (eg. clopidogrel) resistance, in patients who undergo peripheral arterial angiography/interventions (including carotid angiography/interventions) and operations. This study will provide important information on the utility of testing for aspirin and thienopyridine resistance and improve understanding of the genetic and pathophysiologic basis of anti-platelet therapy resistance in patients with cardiovascular disease, including PAD. Most importantly, this study will serve as the basis for a subsequent randomized prospective trial of different treatment options in PAD patients with aspirin/thienopyridine resistance.

Name Time Method Composite of major adverse cardiovascular events 1 year Composite of major adverse cardiovascular events including all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, target vessel revascularization (TVR) and limb loss in patients who underwent extremity intervention.
Clopidogrel non-responsiveness Immediate Clopidogrel non-responsiveness was defined as patients with Plavix reaction units (PRU) ≥ 235
Aspirin non-responsiveness Immediate Aspirin non-responsiveness was defined as patients with aspirin reaction units (ARU) ≥ 550
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Genetic predictors of aspirin and clopidogrel non-responsiveness Immediate Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) were correlated to measures of aspirin and clopidogrel non-responsiveness
