Cangrelor, Tirofiban and Chewed or Standard Prasugrel Regimens in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Primary Results of the FABOLUS FASTER Trial
15 Jul 2020
The results of the FABOLUS FASTER trial clearly highlight that a high residual platelet reactivity persists when targeting platelet activation by inhibition of the P2Y12 receptor either with Prasugrel or Cangrelor, while tackling the mechanism of platelet adhesion thought the inhibition of GPIIB/IIIA might almost completely...
