Role of anti-platelet in treatment of acute ischemic stroke to determine the safety of immediate anti-platelet therapy .that is started as soon as possible within the first 24 hours of the onset of symptoms.
In 2015, stroke was the second most frequent cause of death after coronary artery disease, accounting for 6.3 million deaths (11% of the total).Studies have reported a 30-day recurrence rate of 1.1 to 15 % after stroke and as high as 17% after transient ischemic attack .Therefore, early initiation of antiplatelet agents in ischemic stroke and patients is important to prevent stroke recurrence and is tracked as a quality measure by organizations that accredit stroke centers . Intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase is the mainstay medical treatment for acute ischemic stroke. given intravenously within 4.5 hours of symptom onset, to reopen occluded intracerebral arteries. As in fact most patients with ischemic stroke present to the emergency department beyond the approved time window for thrombolytic or other revascularization therapies beside their high cost and at this time, there are no approved urgent therapies for most of these patients In addition, those who present with rapidly resolving deficit or low National Institutes of Health stroke scale score are generally not considered for thrombolytic treatment, although approximately one third of them may be at high risk for neurological deterioration and recurrent vascular events.This study will evaluates the safety and efficacy of clopidogrel and aspirin in treatment of patients not eligible for recombinant tissue plasminogen activator or any other acute reperfusion therapy with acute ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack within 24 hours of symptoms onset.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A “mini-stroke”: temporary stroke-like symptoms caused by reduced blood flow to part of the brain, spinal cord or eye, without signs of a new stroke on a scan.
Stroke symptoms need emergency care at once, even if they go away.
Blood tests of how long blood takes to clot. The INR is the prothrombin time (PT) put on a common scale; about 1 is usual for someone not taking a blood thinner.
Criteria often make an exception for people on a blood thinner such as warfarin, whose INR is raised on purpose.
Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.
TIA (transient ischaemic attack)

Start is estimated for Jan 2018; primary completion for Jan 2019, 12 months later.
Of 3,108 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Stroke, half reached primary completion within 23 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 46. This study's planned 12 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 3,252 studies reached it within 23 months; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 46.
