The SWAP-9 Study: Comparing Antiplatelet Strategies After Stent Placement
This study, called SWAP-9, is looking at different ways to manage antiplatelet medicines after you've had a stent placed for coronary artery disease (CAD). Specifically, it's comparing two approaches: continuing with strong antiplatelet medicines like prasugrel or ticagrelor, or switching to a combination of aspirin and clopidogrel. The goal is to see how these different strategies affect your body's antiplatelet response. You might be able to join if you've had a stent and are currently taking aspirin along with prasugrel or ticagrelor. The study will measure how well your blood platelets are being controlled after about 30 days.
