Title: Effect of Dipyridamole Plus Aspirin on Hemodialysis Graft Patency
Brief Summary: The objective of the study is to determine whether Aggrenox (Boehringer-Ingelheim) prolongs primary unassisted patency in newly created arteriovenous grafts. This record previously included information for both the GRAFT and FISTULA trials.

Exclusion Criteria

* Age \< 18 years

2. Life expectancy of at least 6 months.
3. Diagnosis of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).

3. Previous treatment with PRT 201.
4. Treatment with any investigational drug within the previous 30 days or investigational antibody therapy within the previous 90 days prior to signing informed consent.
C: Inclusion criteria:

* Age 18-21 depending on state regulations
* Life expectancy of at least six months
* Chronic renal failure with anticipated start of hemodialysis within six months of enrollment, or current dialysis dependence
* A new or planned arteriovenous (AV) graft placed in any location for the purpose of hemodialysis. (Any type of graft material and any configuration of the access is acceptable).
