Why the study?
Do genotypic variations in P2RY12, P2RY1, and ITGB3 influence the pharmacodynamic response to ticagrelor in patients with atherosclerotic disease?

No support for genotyping these loci to predict ticagrelor response; leaves open other genetic or population effects.
Do genotypic variations in P2RY12, P2RY1, and ITGB3 influence the pharmacodynamic response to ticagrelor in patients with atherosclerotic disease?
Ticagrelor provides consistent inhibition of platelet aggregation regardless of genetic variations in P2RY12, P2RY1, and ITGB3, highlighting a potential pharmacodynamic advantage over clopidogrel.
