Aspirin plus cilostazol or clopidogrel for minor stroke or TIA
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding cilostazol or clopidogrel to aspirin is safe and effective for people who recently had a mild stroke or a transient ischemic attack (TIA) caused by a large artery blockage. It aims to prevent another stroke during the first 90 days.

This trial tests whether adding ticagrelor or cilostazol to aspirin is better than aspirin alone for preventing another stroke. It is for patients who recently had a minor stroke or a transient ischemic attack (TIA) caused by a blockage in a large artery.
This trial tests whether adding aspirin to either ticagrelor or clopidogrel (two antiplatelet medicines) can help prevent another stroke in people who recently had a minor stroke or TIA affecting a large brain artery. It is for people who started antiplatelet treatment within 24 hours of their symptoms.
This trial tests whether taking aspirin along with either ticagrelor or cilostazol helps prevent another stroke in people who have had a mild stroke or transient ischemic attack (mini-stroke). You must start treatment within 24 hours of your first symptoms.
This trial tests whether combining aspirin with a second antiplatelet drug (ticagrelor or clopidogrel) helps prevent another stroke after a mild stroke or TIA. It might lower your risk of having another event.
This study compares two blood thinner medicines, ticagrelor and cilostazol, to see which is better at preventing another stroke in people who have just had a minor stroke or TIA (a mini-stroke). It is for people who started treatment within 24 hours of their symptoms.
