Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The ELECTRA pilot study is a randomized, open-label, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic trial designed to evaluate the effect of ticagrelor maintenance dose reduction on platelet inhibition in stable patients who recently underwent acute myocardial infarction and were treated with percutaneous coronary intervention.
