Vorapaxar in the Human Endotoxemia Model A Randomized, Double-Blind, Crossover Study
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Vorapaxar, Placebo, and 1 other intervention for Healthy Volunteers. Completed, enrolled 16 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Vorapaxar is a recently approved protease activated receptor - 1 (PAR-1) inhibitor. Platelet inhibition may also exert positive results on coagulation activation and may beneficially influence the inflammatory response. Since vorapaxar is the first available substance of a new class of platelet inhibitors its effects on the human coagulation system and the inflammatory response will be assessed in the well-established human endotoxemia model.
