CHARISMA: NEW STUDY FURTHERS UNDERSTANDING OF THE ROLE OF DUAL ANTIPLATELET THERAPY IN THE PREVENTION OF ATHEROTHROMBOTIC EVENTS
Results from the CHARISMA trial showed that the combination of the antiplatelet agents clopidogrel and aspirin did not demonstrate a statistically significant reduction in the risk of heart attack, stroke or cardiovascular death compared to placebo and aspirin in a broad population of patients with either established atherothrombotic disease or multiple risk factors for atherothrombotic events.
