Overview
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety aspirin in patients with chronic coronary syndromes without revascularization.
Detailed description
Aspirin for secondary prevention in the acute phase of acute coronary syndromes has been established. Although it is still disputable about the duration, there is also a consensus for antiplatelet therapy in patients after percutaneous coronary revascularization. On the other hand, several large randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have shown that aspirin treatment for primary prevention of cardiovascular events increases bleeding events and does not provide net clinical benefit.Patient with chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) but not eligible for revascularization do not belong to any of these categories and there is no evidence on the efficacy of aspirin in this population. Therefore, we designed a multicenter, randomized, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of aspirin in patients with CCS who are not eligible for revascularization.
