Exclusion criteria: Administration of fibrinolytics or glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors in the previous 30 days, major surgery within 30 days or any planned surgical intervention, active bleeding or previous clinical relevant bleeding or stroke in the last 6 months, previous intracranial bleeding, thrombocytopenia, oral anticoagulant therapy, vasculitis or any know immunological disorder, severe hepatic failure, uncontrolled hypertension (systolic or diastolic arterial pressure >180 mmHg or 120, respectively, despite medical therapy), known intolerance to aspirin or to clopidogrel or prasugrel or ticagrelor, limited life expectancy, e.g. neoplasms, others, inability to obtain informed consent, pregnancy.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess whether Ticagrelor, at steady state, is associated to an improved endothelial function as compared to clopidogrel or prasugrel;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): The reactive hyperemia index (RHI) at treatment steady state, assessed with endopath system (Endopath; Itamar Medical Ltd., Cesarea, Israel) assessed 1-2 hour(s) after maintenance drug intake.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 3 month

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): The reactive hyperemia index (RHI) 1-2 hour(s) after the oral P2Y12 inhibitor loading dose assessed with endopath system (Endopath; Itamar Medical Ltd., Cesarea, Israel) as well other plasma or urine markers of endothelial function [Asymmetrical dimethylarginine (ADMA), micro-albuminuria, von willebrand factor antigen, C-reactive protein, soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFLT-1), intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1)] after drug loading dose and at treatment steady state;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 3 month
