First seen Jan 18, 2026 · Last updated Jun 13, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study looks at how long people with advanced chronic kidney disease should take two blood thinners (aspirin plus clopidogrel or prasugrel) after getting a heart stent. About 900 adults with severe kidney disease will be randomly assigned to either a short or long course of dual therapy. The goal is to see which approach better prevents death, heart attacks, strokes, and serious bleeding.
