Study summary

The use of clopidogrel as part of DAPT will be associated with lower bleeding rates compared to ticagrelor in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia requiring Percutaneous intervention (PCI )with Drug Eluting Stent (DES) or Bare Metal Stint(BMS).

Read the detailed description

Patients with thrombocytopenia are at an increased risk of both bleeding and ischemic events following PCI; however, there is a paucity of data on how to optimally manage these risks. Data indicates that ticagrelor is associated with reduced ischemic outcomes with an accompanying increased risk of bleed in the broader population. This study will assess P2Y12 agent selection in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia to determine if one better balances risks of ischemic and bleeding events following coronary intervention

Study population

Study population of 18 years of age ,PCI with either DES or BMS during study time period (April 1, 2018 through July 1 2021) ,Thrombocytopenia on at least one occasion prior to PCI and at least one dose of DAPT post-PCI with aspirin and either clopidogrel or ticagrelor

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • ≥ 18 years
  • PCI with either DES or BMS during study time period (April 1, 2018 through July 1 2021)
  • Thrombocytopenia defined as count \<100 x103 /µL on at least one occasion prior to PCI
  • At least one dose of DAPT post-PCI with aspirin and either clopidogrel or ticagrelor

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Death within 48 hours post-PCI
  • DAPT prior to cardiac catheterization
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Platelets

Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of bleeding

    To evaluate the difference in bleeding rates in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia maintained on DAPT with clopidogrel compared to patients maintained on DAPT with ticagrelor.

    Time frame: 1 year

Secondary outcomes

  1. Incidence of ischemic events

    number of ischemic events

    Time frame: 1 year

  2. All-cause mortality

    all-cause mortality in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia maintained on DAPT with clopidogrel compared to patients maintained on DAPT with ticagrelor.

    Time frame: 1 year

  3. Duration of DAPT

    To evaluate the difference in rate of ischemic events and all-cause mortality in patients with chronic thrombocytopenia maintained on DAPT with clopidogrel compared to patients maintained on DAPT with ticagrelor.

    Time frame: 1 year

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 10, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
