🔬Did you know? During Stroke Awareness Month, we're highlighting groundbreaking research! The CHANCE-2 study found that treating minor stroke/transient ischemic attack patients carrying one or two CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles with aspirin plus ticagrelor lowered their risk of a second stroke at 90 days more effectively than aspirin plus clopidogrel. (1) This emphasizes the critical role of early identification of a minor stroke or TIA patient's CYP2C19 genotype to optimize DAPT. (1) Let's spread awareness and advocate for genotype-guided DAPT to help prevent recurrent strokes! 🧬 #StrokeAwareness #Pharmacogenetics #StrokePrevention #OptimizedDAPT #PrecisionMedicine 1.
