Personalized anti-platelet therapy for high-risk patients after stent placement

A Randomized Comparison of TAILOReD Anti-Platelet Therapy According to Platelet Reactivity Versus Uniform Clopidogrel Monotherapy Beyond 12 Months After Drug-eluting Stent Implantation in High-risk Patients: TAILOR-DAPT

Not applicable Interventional Yonsei University · NCT05936606

This study is testing if a personalized anti-platelet treatment can help high-risk patients who have had a stent placed feel better than just taking standard medication alone.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of a tailored anti-platelet therapy strategy for high-risk patients who have undergone drug-eluting stent (DES) placement. Participants will be randomly assigned to either continue standard clopidogrel monotherapy or receive personalized treatment based on their platelet reactivity. The intervention aims to optimize antiplatelet therapy beyond 12 months post-stenting, particularly for those with high platelet reactivity. The study will monitor outcomes over a period of up to 24 months.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are patients over 50 years old who have undergone DES implantation and exhibit high-risk characteristics for ischemic events.

Not a fit: Patients over 80 years old or those who are pregnant will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could significantly reduce the risk of ischemic events and bleeding complications in high-risk patients after stent placement.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise in personalized antiplatelet therapy, but this specific approach in high-risk DES patients is relatively novel.
