A Prospective Study to Observe Clinical Outcomes in Patients Receiving Antiplatelet or Anticoagulant Therapy for Cancer-Associated Acute Ischemic Stroke

A Prospective Observational Cohort Study Evaluating the Effectiveness and Safety of Antiplatelet and Anticoagulant Therapies in Patients With Active Cancer and Acute Ischemic Stroke

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 29 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the effectiveness and safety of antiplatelet and anticoagulant treatments in people with a history of cancer who have acute ischemic stroke. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Are there differences in the risk of another stroke between people receiving antiplatelet treatment and those receiving anticoagulant treatment? * Are there differences in the risk of bleeding between the treatment groups? * Which clinical characteristics, imaging findings, cancer-related factors, and blood test results are associated with treatment outcomes? Participants will: * Receive antiplatelet treatment, anticoagulant treatment, or a combination of both, as selected by their treating physicians during routine clinical care. * Provide clinical information and blood samples for the study. * Complete follow-up assessments approximately 30, 90, 180, and 360 days after the stroke. Researchers will compare recurrent stroke, bleeding, other blood clot-related events, functional recovery, and survival among participants receiving different antithrombotic treatments. The study will not assign or change participants' treatments.
