Cangrelor Registry Clinical Trial Results published in European Heart Journal Open Access

The Dutch Cangrelor Registry, published in the European Heart Journal open access, is the first study to date reporting real world clinical outcomes of cangrelor in a wide range of patients. At 48 hours and at 30 days after PCI, a low rate of ischemic events with a reasonable rate of bleeding were seen in patients with stable coronary artery disease as well as in acute coronary syndrome patients with high thrombotic risk. It confirms the safety and feasibility of cangrelor in a broad range of patients.

Use of cangrelor in P2Y₁₂ naïve patients and patients with suboptimal P2Y₁₂ inhibition undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: a valuable expansion of antithrombotic therapeutic armamentarium during PCI.
