Brief 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.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Changes in Platelet Function in Response to Clopidogrel

    Baseline minus post clopidogrel/pre-aspirin platelet rich plasma (PRP) maximum aggregation.

    Measured at baseline, and after clopidogrel treatment

  • Changes in Platelet Function in Response to Clopidogrel Plus Aspirin

    Baseline minus post clopidogrel/post-aspirin platelet rich plasma (PRP) maximum aggregation

    Measured at baseline, and after clopidogrel plus aspirin treatment

Study Arms (1)

Overall Study

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive clopidogrel treatment alone, followed by clopidogrel plus aspirin treatment on the last day of treatment.

Drug: ClopidogrelDrug: Aspirin

Interventions

300 mg on first day, then 75 mg per day for the next 6 days

Overall Study

Single dose of 324 mg on the last day of clopidogrel treatment

Overall Study

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Of Old Order Amish descent

You may not qualify if:

  • Currently pregnant or less than 6 months have passed since delivery
  • 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
  • Is taking vitamins or other supplements and is unwilling to discontinue their use for at least 1 week prior to study
  • Has a coexisting malignancy
  • Has a creatinine level greater than 2.0 mg/dl, aspartate transaminase (AST) or alanine transaminase (ALT) greater than two times the upper limit of normal, hematocrit less than 32%, or a thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) less than 0.4 or greater than 5.5 mIU/L
  • 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
  • Has polycythemia, or thrombocytosis, defined by a platelet count greater than 500,000
  • Has thrombocytopenia, defined by a platelet count less than 75,000
  • Has had surgery within the last 6 months
  • Has an aspirin or clopidogrel allergy
  • Currently breast feeding
