Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective of the present study is to compare platelet inhibitory effects achieved after one week of treatment with ticagrelor versus clopidogrel, both on top of aspirin therapy, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease;Secondary Objective: 1. To assess the pharmacodynamic impact of ticagrelor and clopidogrel loading and maintenance doses in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, measured with different platelet function assays 2. To compare the percentage of patients with low-responsiveness to either ticagrelor or clopidogrel therapy.;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the comparison of the degree of maximal platelet aggregation, measured with light transmittance aggregometry (using 20 ?M ADP as agonist), achieved after 1 week of treatment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 1 week of treatment with ticagrelor compared to clopidogrel | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Assessment of platelet reactivity after 1 week of treatment with ticagrelor compared with clopidogrel (maintenance dose) measured by: a) Analysis of phosphorilation of vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein; b) VerifyNow system; c) Multiple electrode aggregometry Assesment of platelet reactivity after a loading dose of ticagrelor compared to clopidogrel with all platelet funtion assays performed;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Loading dose: 2 hours and 24 hours Maintenance dose: 1 week | — |
