Personalized blood thinner dosing may reduce bleeding risk in heart patients awaiting surgery
NCT ID NCT07225842
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether adjusting the dose of the blood thinner cangrelor based on individual test results can better control clotting in people with coronary artery disease who are waiting for surgery. About 50 adults will receive either a standard or tailored dose to find the safest and most effective approach. The goal is to reduce the risk of both blood clots and bleeding during the bridging period before surgery.
