PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Antiplatelet therapy remains the standard of care in secondary stroke prevention for non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack. We aim to examine the use of antiplatelet agents in secondary prevention through highlighting relevant clinical trials and meta-analyses as well as providing commentary regarding our practice.
RECENT FINDINGS: In the POINT and CHANCE trials, dual antiplatelet therapy reduced recurrent stroke compared to aspirin monotherapy. Sub-analyses of these trials suggest that genetic polymorphisms could play a role in diminishing the effectiveness of clopidogrel. Similarly, THALES demonstrated better outcomes with ticagrelor-aspirin combination therapy over aspirin monotherapy. Combination antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and the P2Y12 inhibitors, clopidogrel and ticagrelor, reduced stroke recurrence in those presenting with mild ischemic stroke or high risk TIA. Genetic polymorphisms may play a role in determining the appropriate regimen. Questions remain regarding the optimal duration of combination antiplatelet therapy for various stroke etiologies.
