Brief Summary
Aspirin was reported to induce hemolysis in patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency on some occasions, while still widely uesd for stroke prevention. The SAST trial is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of aspirin in patients this enzyme disorder.The primary purpose of the trial is to evaluate the hemolytic effects of a 3-month regimen of aspirin 100mg/d versus a 3-month regimen of clopidogrel 75mg/d.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Proportion of protocol-defined hemolysis.
Protocol-defined hemolysis is defined as one or more of the following conditions: a) Hemoglobin level declined ≥2.5 g/dL from baseline, meanwhile ruling out bleeding events. b) Hemoglobin level declined ≥25% from baseline, meanwhile ruling out bleeding events. c) Clinically relevant hemolytic events, could manifested as fatigue, back pain, anemia, dark urine and jaundice, adjudicated by the adjudication committee ultimately.
90±5 days.
Secondary Outcomes (11)
Change in hemoglobin.
4 days,10±3 days,27±3 days and 90±5 days.
Change in reticulocyte.
4 days,10±3 days,27±3 days and 90±5 days.
Change in unconjugated bilirubin and total bilirubin.
4 days,10±3 days,27±3 days and 90±5 days.
Change in lactic dehydrogenase.
4 days,10±3 days,27±3 days and 90±5 days.
Proportion of major bleed (GUSTO definition).
90±5 days.
- +6 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age≥40 years(no upper limit)
- Acute ischemic stroke within 14 days of symptoms onset;
- Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency screened in G6PD enzyme activity

- Anticipated concomitant therapy with other contraindicated drugs for G6PD deficiency
- Severe dysphagia to unable swallow the drugs
- Concomitant infections and need for antimicrobial therapy
- Intracranial hemorrhage or gastrointestinal bleed within 3 months, or major surgery within 30 days
- +6 more criteria
