The international randomized CHAMPION-PLATFORM trial investigated the use of cangrelor, a novel intravenous inhibitor of the platelet

ADP receptor, in patients requiring PCI. Although the occurrence of the primary endpoint (a composite of death, myocardial infarction, or

revascularization) was not significantly affected by administering cangrelor, the 30-day mortality and the rate of stent thrombosis were

significantly lower in the actively treated group. If the beneficial effect on patient prognosis is confirmed during one-year follow-up of

patients of this trial and in subsequent research, cangrelor may become standard treatment during coronary interventions.
