The primary aim of this study is to investigate the PD effects of switching from standard-dose clopidogrel dose to low-dose prasugrel versus continuing standard-dose clopidogrel in patients at dual-risk (HBR defined as the HBR-ARC criteria and HIR defined as ABCD-GENE score ≥10) following PCI. We hypothesize that in patients at dual-risk, switching from standard-dose clopidogrel to low-dose prasugrel will be superior to continuing standard-dose clopidogrel in terms of platelet reactivity.

RECRUITINGPlatelet reactivity measured as PRU
The primary end point of our study will be levels of platelet reactivity, measured as P2Y12 reaction units (PRU) using the VerifyNow system in patients at dual-risk (both HBR and HIR \[ABCD-GENE score ≥10 points\]) between low-dose prasugrel (5 mg qd) vs. standard-dose clopidogrel (75 mg qd)
Time frame: 30 Day
