Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 64 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Inclusion criteria: All patients of 18 and over with: (1) lesions to the iliac, femoropopliteal or below the knee (BTK) arteries; (2) eligibility of lesions for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) or recanalization with or without additional stenting (ST), (3) all TASC lesions [16]; (4) all Rutherford (1-6) classes.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Exclusion criteria are acute ischemia, PAD due to aneurysm abdominal or popliteal, patients with reported intolerance or hypersensitivity for the study medications, impossibility of discontinuing current antiplatelet therapy, the use of anticoagulant therapy (coumarin derivatives; acenocoumarol /fenprocoumon /warfarin), the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in the two weeks prior to the venepuncture to determine eventual aspirin resistance, a history of platelet/bleeding abnormalities, a platelet count

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary endpoint is the occurrence of cardiovascular adverse events: thrombo-embolic events, re-stenosis and occlusion, re-intervention due to symptomatic restenosis or re-occlusion, the occurrence of cerebrovascular events, myocardial infarction, and mortality after one year of follow-up.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary endpoint is occurrence of major and/or minor bleeding. Also it is determined if CYP2C19 polymorphisms and non-responsiveness to aspirin or clopidogrel predicts outcome. The results of these tests are blinded for physicians.
