New treatment option for Mild Stroke
Official title Tirofiban With Sequential Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Mild Stroke
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07095790
What this study is testing
What is Tirofiban+Oral Dual Antiplatelet Therapy?
Tirofiban+Oral Dual Antiplatelet Therapy is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for mild stroke.
Also referred to as Tirofiban with Sequential Dual Antiplatelet Therapy.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This study aims to evaluate whether initiating intravenous tirofiban within 48 hours of onset (with a 48-hour infusion), followed by sequential DAPT, can improve the likelihood of excellent functional outcomes (modified Rankin Scale score 0-1) in mild stroke patients, compared with standard DAPT therapy based on current guidelines.
