Effect of Argatroban Combined With Dual Antiplatelet Therapy on Early Neurological Deterioration in Acute Minor Posterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke
There is a lack of studies on anticoagulant plus antiplatelet therapy for acute ischemic stroke. The present study made a pilot effort to investigate the efficacy and safety of argatroban plus dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients with acute posterior circulation ischemic stroke (PCIS).

description | There is a lack of studies on anticoagulant plus antiplatelet therapy for acute ischemic stroke. The present study made a pilot effort to investigate the efficacy and safety of argatroban plus dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients with acute posterior circulation ischemic stroke (PCIS). We retrospectively collected patients diagnosed with acute PCIS according to inclusion/exclusion criteria. According to treatment drugs, patients were divided into an argatroban plus DAPT group and a DAPT group. The primary efficacy end point was the proportion of early neurological deterioration (END). The primary safety outcome was symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage. All outcomes were compared between the 2 groups before and after propensity score matching (PSM). A total of 502 patients were enrolled in the study, including 35 patients with argatroban plus DAPT and 467 patients with DAPT. There was a higher National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score in the argatroban plus DAPT group than the DAPT group before PSM (3 vs 2, P = .017). Compared with the DAPT group, the argatroban plus DAPT group had no END (before PSM: 0% vs 6.2%, P = .250; after PSM: 0% vs 5.9%, P = .298). Argatroban plus DAPT yielded a significant decrease in the NIHSS score from baseline to 7 days after hospitalization, compared with that of the DAPT group before PSM (P = .032), but not after PSM (P = .369). No symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage was found in any patient. A short-term combination of argatroban with DAPT appears safe in acute minor PCIS. |
