Summary

One of the most common ways for preventing coronary heart disease (CHD) is to take aspirin or clopidogrel. However, studies have shown that not all people respond to these medications. The variance in treatment response may be linked to genetics. This study will examine the effects of aspirin and clopidogrel in a population whose genes are well known in order to determine the role that genes play in treatment responses.

  • Has a history of a bleeding disorder or major spontaneous bleed, such as peptic ulcer, epistasis, or intracranial bleed
  • Has severe hypertension, defined by a blood pressure above 160/95 mm Hg, making it unethical not to recommend prompt treatment
  • Takes medications that would affect the outcome(s) to be measured and cannot willingly and safely, in the opinion of the treating physician and study physician, discontinue these medications for 1 week prior to protocol initiation

  • Has a bleeding disorder or history of gastrointestinal bleeding or other major bleeding episode
  • Is currently taking aspirin, clopidogrel, or other anti-coagulant, such as warfarin, heparin, or GPIIb/IIIa antagonists, and have conditions that might place them at increased risk from withdrawal of these medications 14 days prior to protocol initiation, including history of unstable angina, heart attack, angioplasty (including stent placement), coronary artery bypass surgery, atrial fibrillation, stroke or transient ischemic attacks, diabetes, or deep vein thrombosis or other thrombosis
