UNSPSC 51131627: Cangrelor

This classification denotes an antiplatelet agent, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 6AQ1Y404U7. European Medicines Agency schedules Cangrelor in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB26448. Cangrelor generally arises in the molecular formula C17H25CL2F3N5O12P3S2. The term CANGRELOR is an International Non-Proprietary Name or INN (see WHO INN reference publication, Volume 14, no. 3, 2000, list 44.) Most nations schedule cangrelor under HS 29349990 and SITC 51579.

As of Q4 2014, CANGRELOR remains the US FDA Preferred Term for this commodity. Cangrelor bears US NLM identifiers UMLS ID C1121991 and NCI Concept Code C76395. SMILES: CLC(CL)(P(=O)(OP(=O)(OCC1OC(N2C3NC(SCCC(F)(F)F)NC(NCCSC)C3NC2)C(O)C1O)O)O)P(=O)(O)O.

UNSPSC 51131627 Cangrelor is a Commodity code identifying a specific antiplatelet pharmaceutical product, yet recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect pharmaceutical procurement. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative purchasing unit, posted RFP #061626 in May 2026 seeking proposals for law enforcement equipment—a category wholly unrelated to cangrelor or any pharmaceutical scope. The mismatch between the code's nominal commodity classification and the actual work being solicited suggests either a miscoding error in the state and local procurement system or that this code sees minimal legitimate pharmaceutical procurement activity at the state and local level. Cangrelor is a fast-acting intravenous P2Y12 inhibitor used in acute coronary syndromes and typically administered in hospital or emergency-care settings; state and local bodies do not routinely procure individual pharmaceuticals through formal RFP or cooperative purchasing frameworks, as hospital systems and health departments typically source such medications through pharmaceutical wholesalers or group purchasing organizations governed by separate regulatory pathways.

The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Sourcewell's law enforcement equipment RFP with a June 16, 2026 response deadline—carries no decision relevance to cangrelor procurement. The code shows no meaningful state and local activity aligned with its commodity definition, and the lone available record represents a clear taxonomy mismatch rather than a legitimate market signal.
