Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants with treatment-related postive event assessed by the reduction of the concentration of procoagulant microparticles in the atherosclortic plaque

    Microparticle concentration measured by captured-based prothrombinase assay

    an average of 1 to 6 months after the carotid endarterectomy

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants with treatment-related modification of the content of the plaque assessed by protein biomarkers of the plaque instability and thrombogenicity, and by the identification of the cell origin of the procoagulant microparticles

    an average of 1 to 6 months after the carotid endarterectomy
