Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Evaluate the effect of esomeprazole on low-dose aspirin pharmacodynamics by assessing the relative change in the VerifyNow Aspirin test after 5 days of treatment, relative to baseline (Day 1) in healthy human volunteers | Ongoing throughout the study from consent through withdrawal |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Evaluate the effect of esomeprazole on low-dose aspirin pharmacodynamics by assessing the relative change in serum thromboxane B2 inhibition from baseline | Ongoing throughout the study from consent through withdrawal |
