About this trial

The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of platelet aggregation function - guided precision anti - platelet therapy in patients with acute cerebral infarction. The main question it aims to answer is: among the cerebral infarction patients with possible clopidogrel resistance detected by platelet aggregation function tests, what is the efficacy and safety of using ticagrelor to replace the clopidogrel treatment regimen.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age ≥ 18 years old.

Acute non-disabling ischaemic stroke: NIHSS score ≤ 5 at enrollment;

TIA with moderate to high stroke risk: ABCD₂ score ≥ 4.

Time from symptom onset ≤ 48 hours. (Definition of symptom onset time: the interval from the last time the patient was observed in a normal state to the time of co-administration of clopidogrel 300 mg and aspirin 100 mg.)

Disqualifiers

Imaging examinations suggestive of hemorrhagic stroke, hemorrhagic transformation, or other pathological cerebral disorders, such as vascular malformation, tumor, abscess, or other common non-ischemic cerebral diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis).

Minor stroke/TIA induced by angioplasty or vascular surgery.

Routine electrocardiogram (ECG) suggestive of atrial fibrillation (AF), or physical examination findings of typical AF signs including completely irregular cardiac rhythm, variable intensity of the first heart sound, and pulse deficit.

Having definite indications for anticoagulant therapy (suspected cardiogenic embolism, e.g., atrial fibrillation, known artificial heart valve, suspected endocarditis, etc.).

Treatments tested in this trial

  • The ticagrelor

    Drug

    Ticagrelor 90 mg should be administered as early as possible (within 12-24 hours after the loading dose). From Day 1 to Day 21 after enrollment: Patients shall receive dual antiplatelet therapy with oral ticagrelor 90 mg bid and aspirin 100 mg qd. From Day 22 to Day 90 after enrollment: Patients shall receive monotherapy with oral ticagrelor 90 mg bid.

  • The Clopidogrel

    Drug

    From the 1st to the 21st day, the patient should receive dual anti - platelet therapy with clopidogrel 75mg once a day (qd) combined with aspirin 100mg once a day (qd). From the 22nd to the 90th day, the patient should be given clopidogrel 75mg qd for anti - platelet treatment.
