Antiplatelet treatment imaging test for stroke patients
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses special microscope imaging (transmission electron microscopy) to look at tiny changes in platelets before and after starting an antiplatelet medicine. It’s testing whether platelets show clear structural signs around the start of treatment for a specific type of stroke.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You can sign informed consent to join the study
- You are currently hospitalized for a non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke
- Your stroke care team plans to start antiplatelet therapy soon (following usual guidelines)
- You do not have a known allergy or medical reason to avoid the antiplatelet drug(s) being used
- You also do not have a known reaction risk to the drug’s inactive ingredients (excipients)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks for biological and imaging markers that may predict heart/vascular outcomes after an ischemic stroke. You may join if you are eligible for standard stroke treatment and can complete planned follow-up and MRI scans.
This study looks at tiny blood clots and immune cell activity in people with or without a recent stroke. It aims to find markers that could predict stroke risk or help improve treatment.
This study looks at inflammation signals in the body and in brain MRI scans after treatment to reopen a blocked brain artery. It may help researchers understand who benefits most from different “reperfusion” treatments like clot-busting medicine or procedures.
This trial looks at how anti-clotting medicines affect small blood vessel bleeds in the brain (cerebral microbleeds) and larger bleeding in the skull after an ischemic stroke. It may help doctors choose safer prevention medicines for people who already have these small bleeds seen on brain MRI.
This hospital study looks at blood and clotting (coagulation) measurements in people who arrive with specific types of stroke or brain bleeding not caused by injury. It may help doctors better understand clotting changes after these events and improve care decisions.
This trial tests a combination of two blood thinners (antiplatelet drugs) to see if they work better than one in people who had a mild stroke caused by a narrowed artery in the brain. If you had a recent first stroke and are otherwise healthy, you may be able to join.
