NCT04330872

Brief Summary

Uncertainty remains regarding the impact of enteric-coated (EC) aspirin as it relates to the reduction of CV risk. We hypothesize that EC formulation based on the previous report may blunt aspirin response as evidenced by reduced Thromboxane A2 (TXA 2) levels in diabetic patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of Aspirin non-responders.

    Aspirin nonresponsiveness is defined as a level of residual serum TXB2 associated with elevated thrombotic risk (\<99.0% inhibition or TXB2 \>3.1 ng/ml) after 3 daily aspirin doses

    At "Day 3"

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of Gastrointestinal bleeding consequent upon aspirin therapy.

    After three daily aspirin doses ( at "Day 3")

Study Arms (2)

Enteric coated Aspirin

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

EC aspirin loading dose 300mg followed by 100 mg (2 days). The study's total duration is 3 days.

Drug: Enteric Coated Aspirin Tablet

Plain Aspirin

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Dispersible Aspirin loading dose 300mg followed by 75mg tablets (2 days) The study's total duration is 3 days.

Drug: Plain Aspirin

Interventions

Study participants will be assigned to receive either EC Aspirin and will be required to continue taking them throughout the study (three days).

Enteric coated Aspirin

Study participants will be assigned to receive either Plain Aspirin and will be required to continue taking them throughout the study (three days).
