Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Patients With First Recurrent Cerebral Infarction (Fatal or Non-fatal) [Up to 124 weeks]

    All events reported by investigators were adjudicated by the independent event assessment committee in a blinded manner.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Patients With Brain (Cerebral) Haemorrhage [Up to 124 weeks]

    All events reported by investigators were adjudicated by the independent event assessment committee in a blinded manner.

  2. Number of Patients With Subarachnoid Haemorrhage [Up to 124 weeks]

    All events reported by investigators were adjudicated by the independent event assessment committee in a blinded manner.

  3. Number of Patients With Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) [Up to 124 weeks]

    All events reported by investigators were adjudicated by the independent event assessment committee in a blinded manner.

  4. Number of Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) [Up to 124 weeks]

    ACS contains acute myocardial infarction (MI), unstable angina and sudden cardiac death. All events reported by investigators were adjudicated by the independent event assessment committee in a blinded manner.

  5. Number of Patients With Other Vascular Events [Up to 124 weeks]

    This endpoints were defined as pulmonary embolism, retinal vascular disorder, deep vein thrombosis, peripheral artery obstruction and vascular intervention. All events reported by investigators were adjudicated by the independent event assessment committee in a blinded manner.

  6. Number of Patients With Ischemic Vascular Event Composite Endpoint [Up to 124 weeks]

    This is a composite endpoint of cerebral infarction, transient ischemic attack (TIA), acute myocardial infarction (MI), unstable angina and sudden death attributable to thromboembolism. All events reported by investigators were adjudicated by the independent event assessment committee in a blinded manner.

Outcome Measures

Title Number of Patients With First Recurrent Cerebral Infarction (Fatal or Non-fatal)
Description All events reported by investigators were adjudicated by the independent event assessment committee in a blinded manner.
Time Frame Up to 124 weeks

Outcome Measure Data

Analysis Population Description
All outcomes and efficacy endpoints were analysed on the basis of the full analysis set (FAS). FAS population excluded that 1) patients who did not meet inclusion criteria, 2) patients who had never taken the investigational products, and 3) patients who had no data after drug administration.

Statistical Analysis 1
Statistical Analysis Overview Comparison Group Selection Aggrenox Capsule, Acetylsalicylic Acid (ASA) 81 mg Tablet
Comments Non-event rate was calculated by using the Kaplan-Meier method and the comparison of groups was made by using the Cox proportional hazard regression model.
Type of Statistical Test Non-Inferiority or Equivalence
Comments The non-event rates after 1 year in the Aggrenox group and ASA group are estimated at 94.0% and 91.5%, respectively. The non-inferiority margin was set to 2%. Under these conditions, 500 patients per group were supposed to be enough to detect the non-inferiority of Aggrenox with over 80% power.
