Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms of the In-stent-thrombosis

September 22, 2015 updated by: RWTH Aachen University

Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms of the In-stent-thrombosis. Is it Possible to Predict a In-stent-thrombosis Using Biomarkers?

In-Stent-Thrombosis is a rare but serious complication after implantation of stents during PTCA.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

In this prospective, open, not-randomized, controlled single-center pilot study 80 patients having had an in-stent-thrombosis (40 sub-acute thromboses (SAT), 40 late thromboses (LT)) and a control group of 80 patients having not developed a thrombosis will be compared.

The aim of this study is the establishment of diagnostic markers vor prediction of SAT (detection of CD39- and CD73-activity, respectively)and of LT (EPC-number and function, respectively) correspondingly aiming at the early identification of patients with high risk for developing an in-stent-thrombosis.
