Statin and Dual Antiplatelet Therapy to Prevent Early Neurological Deterioration in Branch Atheromatous Disease

Phase 2 Completed 376 enrolled Chang Gung Memorial Hospital

Non-randomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelTreatment

Summary

Branch atheromatous disease (BAD) has been reported to contribute to small-vessel occlusion and is associated with a higher possibility of early neurological deterioration (END). Because the pathology of BAD is due to atherosclerosis, the investigators postulate that early intensive medical treatment with dual antiplatelet therapy(DAPT) and high-intensity statin may prevent END and recurrent stroke. The investigators hypothesise that intensive medical therapy can prevent END in BAD using aspirin, clopidogrel and high-intensity statin.
