March 15, 2024 updated by: Second Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University

Combination of Antiplatelet and Anticoagulation for Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients Witn Concomitant Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation and Extracranial/Intracranial Artery Stenosis

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the safety and effectiveness of anticoagulation combined with antiplatelet therapy in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with concomitant non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and extracranial/intracranial artery stenosis. Participants will be 1:1 randomized into anticoagulation alone or anticoagulation combined with antiplatelet therapy. The primary endpoint is composite events 3 months after enrollment.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Concomitant NVAF and extracranial/intracranial artery stenosis will greatly increase the risk of stroke, even with standard anticoagulation. However, clinicians may be concerned with the high risk of bleeding complications of anticoagulation combined with antiplatelet therapy. The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of anticoagulation combined with antiplatelet therapy in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with concomitant non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and extracranial/intracranial artery stenosis. Participants will be 1:1 randomized into anticoagulation alone or anticoagulation combined with antiplatelet therapy. The primary endpoint is composite events 3 months after enrollment.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
