EndoTic - Endothelium and Ticagrelor
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Randomized clinical trial to assess the influence of treatment with ticagrelor or clopidogrel in the number of CECs (Circulating Endothelial Cells) and EPCs (Endothelial Progenitor Cells) in patients with ACS (Acute Coronary Syndrome), from baseline levels to chronic levels (1 month).

Detailed Description
ACS Patients in both treatment groups will be assessed:
Baseline, 48h and 1 month cell counts will be done for CECs and EPCs Platelet Function at 48h and 1month Adverse Events, ECG and blood testing result will be also collected
