NCT03433586

Brief Summary

Specific Aim I: Examine the role of genetic variation in COMT on platelet function in a blinded, randomized, placebo controlled clinical trial of daily placebo or Aspirin (81mg) for 10 ± 3 days. Platelet function will be assessed with platelet aggregometry and by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) of platelet adhesion molecules P-selectin and GPIIb/IIIa in platelets activated with arachidonic acid, thrombin, collagen, epinephrine and ADP. Specific Aim II: Examine the effects of platelet releasates harvested at the end of each treatment arm on angiogenesis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • platelet aggregation

    Platelets will be activated with arachidonic acid, thrombin, collagen, ADP and epinephrine

    At end of treatment 10-14 days the platelets will be activated on the same day as blood collection.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • % expression of P-selectin on resting and activated platelets

    At end of treatment 10-14 days the platelets will be activated on the same day as blood collection.

Data Sharing

IPD Sharing
Will share

The generation of large-scale human or non-human genome data is not an explicit plan in this proposal. However, any genomic data as it pertains to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) arrays, and genome sequence, transcriptomic, epigenomic, or gene expression data produced from the work in this award will be made publicly available through the appropriate NIH data repositories including array express, Database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP), Database of Short Genetic Variations (dbSNP) or Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). We intend to share the results from this study in published manuscripts and presentations at National Meetings. Unique methodology or results developed or generated through this study will be made readily available for research purposes to qualified individuals within the scientific community. Interested researchers will be able to contact the corresponding authors of the publications for information about access to resources.
