NCT ID NCT04471870

First seen Mar 10, 2026 · Last updated May 05, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study looked at over 1,000 people with acute coronary syndrome (a serious heart condition) who received the blood thinner cangrelor during a procedure to open blocked arteries. The goal was to track how often bleeding occurred and how safe it was to switch to other blood thinners afterward. No new treatment was tested; instead, researchers observed real-world use to better understand risks.
