Summary

This study looked at whether taking blood thinners for 3 months instead of 6 months after getting a special brain stent is safe and effective. The trial was planned for people with narrowed brain arteries, but it was withdrawn before any participants enrolled. The goal was to see if a shorter treatment could reduce bleeding risks while still preventing strokes.
