ROLE OF ANTIPLATELETS IN NON CARDIOEMBOLIC STROKE
PRIMARY PREVENTION
• 1. Use of aspirin for cardiovascular prophylaxis is reasonable for people whose risk is sufficiently high (10-year risk >10%) for the benefits to outweigh the risks associated with treatment. (Class IIa; Level of Evidence A).
![Page 8: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• 2. Aspirin (81 mg daily or 100 mg every other day) can be useful for the prevention of a first stroke among women, including those with diabetes mellitus, whose risk is sufficiently high for the benefits to outweigh the risks associated with treatment (Class IIa; Level of Evidence B).
• 3. Aspirin might be considered for the prevention of a first stroke in people with chronic kidney disease (ie, estimated glomerular filtration rate <45 mL/min/1.73 m2) (Class IIb; Level of Evidence C).
![Page 9: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• 4. Cilostazol may be reasonable for the prevention of a first stroke in people with peripheral arterial disease (Class IIb; Level of Evidence B).
• 5. Aspirin is not useful for preventing a first stroke in low-risk
individuals (Class III; Level of Evidence A).
• 6. Aspirin is not useful for preventing a first stroke in people with diabetes mellitus in the absence of other high-risk conditions (Class III; Level of Evidence A).
![Page 10: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• 7. Aspirin is not useful for preventing a first stroke in people with diabetes mellitus and asymptomatic peripheral artery disease (defined as asymptomatic in the presence of an ankle brachial index ≤0.99) (Class III; Level of Evidence B).
• 8. As a result of a lack of relevant clinical trials, antiplatelet regimens other than aspirin and cilostazol are not recommended for the prevention of a first stroke (Class III; Level of Evidence C).
![Page 11: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKE
• 1. Oral administration of aspirin (initial dose is 325 mg) within 24 to 48 hours after stroke onset is recommended for treatment of most patients (Class I; Level of Evidence A).
• 2. The usefulness of clopidogrel for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke is not well established (Class IIb; Level of Evidence C).
![Page 12: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• 3. The efficacy of intravenous tirofiban and eptifibatide is not well established, and these agents should be used only in the setting of clinical trials (Class IIb; Level of Evidence C).
• 4. Aspirin is not recommended as a substitute for other acute interventions for treatment of stroke, including intravenous rtPA (Class III; Level of Evidence B).
![Page 13: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• 5. The administration of other intravenous antiplatelet agents that inhibit the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor is not recommended (Class III; Level of Evidence B).
• 6. The administration of aspirin (or other antiplatelet agents) as an adjunctive therapy within 24 hours of intravenous fibrinolysis is not recommended (Class III; Level of Evidence C).
![Page 14: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SECONDARY PREVENTION
• 1. For patients with noncardioembolic ischemic stroke or TIA, the use of antiplatelet agents rather than oral anticoagulation is recommended to reduce the risk of recurrent stroke and other cardiovascular events (Class I; Level of Evidence A).
• 2. Aspirin (50–325 mg/d) monotherapy (Class I; Level of Evidence A) or the combination of aspirin 25 mg and extended-release dipyridamole 200 mg twice daily (Class I; Level of Evidence B) is indicated as initial therapy after TIA or ischemic stroke for prevention of future stroke
![Page 15: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• 3. Clopidogrel (75 mg) monotherapy is a reasonable option for secondary prevention of stroke in place of aspirin or combination aspirin/dipyridamole (Class IIa; Level of Evidence B). This recommendation also applies to patients who are allergic to aspirin.
• 4. The selection of an antiplatelet agent should be individualized on the basis of patient risk factor profiles, cost, tolerance, relative known efficacy of the agents, and other clinical characteristics (Class I; Level of Evidence C).
![Page 16: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• 5. The combination of aspirin and clopidogrel might be considered for initiation within 24 hours of a minor ischemic stroke or TIA and for continuation for 90 days (Class IIb; Level of Evidence B).
• 6. The combination of aspirin and clopidogrel, when initiated days to years after a minor stroke or TIA and continued for 2 to 3 years, increases the risk of hemorrhage relative to either agent alone and is not recommended for routine long-term secondary prevention after ischemic stroke or TIA (Class III; Level of Evidence A).
![Page 17: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• 7. For patients who have an ischemic stroke or TIA while taking aspirin, there is no evidence that increasing the dose of aspirin provides additional benefit. Although alternative antiplatelet agents are often considered, no single agent or combination has been adequately studied in patients who have had an event while receiving aspirin (Class IIb; Level of Evidence C).
![Page 18: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• 8. For patients with a history of ischemic stroke or TIA, AF, and CAD, the usefulness of adding antiplatelet therapy to VKA therapy is uncertain for purposes of reducing the risk of ischemic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (Class IIb; Level of Evidence C). Unstable angina and coronary artery stenting represent special circumstances in which management may warrant DAPT/VKA therapy.

![Page 22: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Benefits of Aspirin on Risk of Stroke• In 158 trials, there were 3,522 nonfatal and 1,424 fatal strokes
after randomization.
• Aspirin, reduced stroke by about 25%, regardless of whether the patient entered the trial with prior MI, stroke, TIA, or other high-risk conditions.
• Aspirin increases the absolute risk of hemorrhagic stroke by 3 per 10,000 treated patients.

Clopidogrel Versus Aspirin in Patients at Risk of Ischemic Events (CAPRIE) trial
• Clopidogrel was compared with aspirin alone
• 19183 patients with stroke, MI, or peripheral vascular disease were randomized to aspirin 325 mg/d or clopidogrel 75 mg/d.
• Clopidogrel had a lower event rate per year compared with aspirin, 5.32% vs 5.83%, respectively, which resulted in an overall risk reduction of 8.7% (P = 0.045) vs aspirin.
• There were no major differences in terms of safety.
![Page 28: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Prevention Regimen for Effectively Avoiding Second Strokes (PRoFESS) trial• Clopidogrel was compared with combination aspirin and
extended-release dipyridamole• N=20,332 patients with recent non cardioembolic ischemic
stroke• Aspirin-dipyridamole (n=10,181)• Clopidogrel (n=10,151)
Primary Outcomes
Adverse Events• Major hemorrhage 4.1% vs. 3.6% (HR 1.15; 95% CI 1.00-1.32)
![Page 29: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
TICLOPIDINE• Ticlopidine is a platelet ADP receptor antagonist.
• Evaluated in 3 randomized trials
• Ticlopidine was superior to placebo in 1 trial and to aspirin in another, and a third trial found no benefit compared with aspirin.
• Because of the side effect profile and availability of newer agents, ticlopidine has no role in current guidelines.
![Page 30: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Canadian American Ticlopidine Study,
• Included 1,072 patients with ischemic stroke.
• Patients in the ticlopidine group had a significant 23.3% reduction in the combined end point of stroke, MI, or vascular death compared with the placebo group (11.3% per year vs 14.8% per year; P = 0.02).
![Page 31: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Ticlopidine Aspirin Stroke Study (TASS)• Compared ticlopidine with high-dose aspirin (650 mg) in 3,069
patients with TIA or stroke. • There was a 12% reduction in the primary end point of nonfatal
stroke or death in patients receiving ticlopidine compared with those receiving aspirin (17% vs 19%; P = 0.048)
• Negative results in this trial along with the hematologic side effects of ticlopidine and the availability of clopidogrel have significantly reduced the use of this drug for recurrent stroke prevention in patients with ischemic stroke.
![Page 32: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
TICAGRELOR
• Orally active, reversible inhibitor of P2Y 12 .
• Has a more rapid onset and offset of action than clopidogrel
• Produces greater and more predictable inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation.
![Page 33: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Platelet Inhibition and Patient Outcomes (PLATO) trial
• Ticagrelor versus clopidogrel in patients with acute coronary syndromes
• Compared to clopidogrel, ticagrelor significantly reduced the rate of CV death, MI, or stroke without an increase in the rate of overall major bleeding
![Page 34: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Ticagrelor versus Aspirin in Acute Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack• 13,199 patients with a nonsevere ischemic stroke or high-risk
transient ischemic attack were randomly assigned within 24 hours after symptom onset, in a 1:1 ratio, to receive either ticagrelor (180 mg loading dose on day 1 followed by 90 mg twice daily for days 2 through 90) or aspirin (300 mg on day 1 followed by 100 mg daily for days 2 through 90)
• Ticagrelor was not found to be superior to aspirin in reducing the rate of stroke, myocardial infarction, or death at 90 days
![Page 35: Newer anti platelet in stroke](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042619/587176b11a28ab230b8b51c9/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
DIPYRIDAMOLEMechanism of action• Inhibiting phosphodiesterase, blocks the breakdown of cyclic AMP.• Increased levels of cyclic AMP reduce intracellular calcium and
inhibit platelet activation.• Also blocks the uptake of adenosine by platelets and other cells.
Side effects • Gastrointestinal complaints, headache, facial flushing, dizziness,
and hypotension.

Safety of Tirofiban in acute Ischemic Stroke: SaTIS trial.• Subjects with a NIHS between 4 and 18 received intravenously
either tirofiban or placebo within 3 to 22 hours after symptom onset for 48 hours.
• Rate of cerebral hemorrhagic transformation (I/II) and parenchymal hemorrhage (I/II) did not differ between both groups
• Mortality after 5 months was significantly lower in patients treated with tirofiban.
• No difference in neurological/functional outcome was found after 1 week and after 5 months.

EPITIFIBATIDECombined Approach to Lysis Utilizing Eptifibatide and rt-PA in Acute Ischemic Stroke-Enhanced Regimen (CLEAR-ER)
• rt-PA-eligible AIS patients were randomized to .6 mg/kg rt-PA plus eptifibatide (135 mcg/kg bolus and .75mcg/kg/min two-hour infusion) versus standard rt-PA (.9 mg/kg).
• One (1.8%) sICH occurred in each group.• At 90 days, 51.8% of the CLEAR-ER group had good outcomes
versus 46.3% in the NINDS rt-PA.• A phase III trial is needed to determine the efficacy of eptifibatide
plus rt-PA for improving long-term outcomes after AIS.

CILASTAZOLE
• Phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitor that is used mainly for intermittent claudication in patients with peripheral artery disease.
• There are as yet no high-quality data regarding the use of cilostazol for secondary stroke prevention.
• Lower tolerability and higher cost of cilostazol compared with aspirin may limit its more widespread use for stroke prevention.

• In the CSPS ( Cilostazol stroke prevention study) trial of over 1000 patients from Japan, cilostazol (100 mg twice daily) compared with placebo significantly reduced the risk of stroke (relative risk reduction 42 percent, 95% CI 9.2-62.5 percent).
• In the CASISP (Cilostazol vs Aspirin for Secondary Ischemic Stroke Prevention) trial from China of 720 patients with recent ischemic stroke, the composite endpoint (any stroke, ischemic or hemorrhagic) at 12 to 18 months of follow-up was lower in the cilostazol group compared with the aspirin group (3.3 versus 5.6 percent, hazard ratio [HR] 0.62, 95% CI 0.30-1.26) but this result was not statistically significant
