What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

atorvastatin, rosuvastatin, and clopidogrel
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that one statin is better than the other at preventing a second stroke when combined with clopidogrel.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage Phase 3 trial with 600 participants, so results may not apply to all stroke patients. There is also a risk of side effects like bleeding or allergic reactions.
