Aspirin = Bayer brand name except in U.S. (From the German acetylspirsaure + chemical suffix – in) First synthesized in pure form by Felix Hoffman of Bayer & Co. in 1897.
H. Dreser. Promoted ASA 1899 F. Hoffman. First synthesized ASA 1897
Acetylsalicylic Acid Due to problems with the original Aspirin powder being counterfeited, it became the first pharmaceutical agent ever sold in pill form in early 1900’s.

Aspirin • Sir John Vane wins Nobel Prize for describing the effect of aspirin on platelets – 1971 • FDA approved for secondary prevention of MI – 1986 • Aspirin remains the most commonly used drug in the world. About 100 M tablets used daily in U.S.

Secondary Prevention of Small SubcorticalStrokes (SPS3) SPS3 is sponsored by National Institutes of Health NINDS: 2 U01 NS38529-04A1
SPS3 n= 283 n= 366 n= 1677 n= 165 n= 171 n= 186 n= 127 81 clinical sites 8 countries Randomization: March 2003 - April 2011 n= 45
SPS3 SPS3 Design I • Randomized multicenter international trial. • Investigator initiated study. • Lacunar strokes within 180 days, verified by MRI. • No cortical stroke, cardioembolic disease / carotid stenosis. • Randomized to 2 interventions in a factorial design: 1) Antiplatelet therapy (double blind): -aspirin 325 mg + placebo -aspirin 325 mg + clopidogrel 75 mg 2) Target levels of blood pressure control (open label): -”usual” 130-149 mmHg systolic -”intensive” <130 mmHg systolic www.clinicaltrials.gov NCT00059306
SPS3 Primary Outcome: Ischemic & Hemorrhagic Stroke • Aspirin = 138 (2.7 %/yr) • Aspirin + Clopidogrel = 126 (2.5 %/yr) HR 0.92 (0.73, 1.2) p value 0.52
SPS3 Ischemic Stroke • Aspirin = 125 (2.4 %/yr) • Aspirin + Clopidogrel = 105 (2.1 %/yr) HR: 0.85 (0.66, 1.1). p value: 0.21
SPS3 Efficacy Outcomes *Defined as: stroke, MI, vascular deaths.
SPS3 All Cause Mortality • Aspirin = 77 (1.4 %/yr) • Aspirin + Clopidogrel = 113 (2.1 %/yr) HR 1.5 (1.1, 2.0) p value 0.005

SPS3 Etiological Subtypes of Recurrent Ischemic Strokes
SPS3 Conclusions on SPS3 Results • Dual antiplatelet therapy was not more effective than aspirin alone. • Major bleeds were increased. • Unexpectedly, mortality was increased. • These results do not support the use of combination therapy for secondary stroke prevention in patients with lacunar strokes.

Effect of antithrombotic drugs for stroke prevention cannot be meaningfully interpreted without considering ischemic stroke subtypes. • Clopidogrel + aspirin clearly reduces ischemic stroke in atrial fibrillation patients.(ACTIVE A) • Clopidogrel + aspirin does not reduce recurrent lacunar stroke.(SPS3) • Warfarin is far superior to antiplatelet therapy for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation patients, but not for most other causes.(ACTIVE W, WARSS, WASID) • Combining all causes of ischemic stroke in clinical trials (e.g. CHARISMA) masks clinically important differences.
