NCT02018055

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of clopidogrel in stabilized patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who performed percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents (DES) compared with ticagrelor. In this study, 2,590 patients with AMI who underwent PCI with DES and took dual antiplatelet therapy as aspirin and ticagrelor during 1 month from index PCI will be randomized to aspirin+ticagrelor versus aspirin+ clopidogrel during 11 months.
