Heart patients may ditch blood thinners after one year, major trial investigates
NCT ID NCT07398001
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether people who had a heart procedure with a drug-coated balloon can safely stop taking antiplatelet drugs after 12 months. The goal is to see if stopping reduces bleeding risks while keeping the heart protected. About 1,000 adults who have been event-free for a year will be randomly assigned to stop or continue their medication and followed for outcomes.
