Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The use of intracranial stents expands the possibilities for endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms and improves the success rate. However, it also increases the risk of ischemic complications in patients. The current standard dual antiplatelet regimen is considered crucial in reducing thrombotic events. Nevertheless, some patients exhibit resistance to antiplatelet drugs, which puts them at a higher risk of thrombotic events. In clinical practice, there is a lack of standardized platelet function testing and consensus on adjusting antiplatelet drug programs. This study conducted a multi-center, prospective cluster randomized controlled trial to investigate whether antiplatelet adjustment therapy guided by light transmittance aggregometry (LTA) detection can decrease the occurrence of ischemic events after stent implantation in patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms. Additionally, the study aimed to establish a set of standardized antiplatelet regimens.

Outcome Assessors
To ensure the reliability of the research results, a study committee consisting of 5 members will be formed. The committee comprised a 2-member data safety monitoring committee and a 3-member clinical event review committee. Each reported ischemic event and bleeding event were assessed independently by three members of the clinical event adjudication committee. These committee members were blinded to the treatment group assignments. Any disagreements were resolved by a third member of the clinical events adjudication committee. All five committee members reviewed and resolved any discrepancies through consensus.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

control group

Continue to use the center's original antiplatelet regimen: oral aspirin 100 mg and clopidogrel 75 mg daily

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

test group

Use a guided antiplatelet regimen based on LTA testing

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Adjustment of Antiplatelet Drugs

Intervention Type DRUG

The maximum platelet aggregation rate induced by arachidonic acid (AA-MPA)≥20%, give aspirin 200mg qd. The maximum platelet aggregation rate induced by adenosine diphosphatase (ADP-MPA)≥36.4% for flow diversion, give ticagrelor 60mg bid. ADP-MPA≥42.9% for stent-assisted coil embolization,give ticagrelor 60mg bid. ADP-MPA\<20%, give clopidogrel 37.5mg qd. The timing of drug adjustment should be at least 1 day before stent implantation, and the LTA testing should be performed again 48 hours after the drug adjustment. For patients whose ADP-MPA does not reach the normal range, a second antiplatelet drug adjustment should be performed: ticagrelor overdose: reduce to 45mg bid; ticagrelor resistance, increase to 90 mg bid.
