Limitations and caveats
The open label design may have facilitated bias, though there is no evidence for this. The follow-up co-ordinators were masked to allocated drug whilst recording outcome data. Recruitment and one year follow-up at sites in LACI2 was affected by the SARS-Cov-19 pandemic. Some patients were unable to return for MRI or in person assessments at sites (Trails, BP) or return postal follow-up forms. As a factorial trial, comparison of the combination of drugs versus no drugs was underpowered.

Registered outcomes4

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryFeasibility of Phase III Trial36 months (24 Months Recruitment + 12 months Follow Up)
Feasibility of Phase III trial, i.e. that eligible patients can be identified correctly, in sufficient numbers, enrolled and \>95% retained in follow-up at one year, to achieve feasibility target sample size recruitment and randomisation of 400 patients in 24 months in the UK.
SecondaryTrial Medication Tolerability Measured by Number of Participants With Adherence to Medication at Half Dose or More at 1 Year12 months
It is estimated that in this trial 75% of patients will be able to tolerate trial medication, in at least half dose, up to one year after randomisation (i.e. less than 25% will stop trial medication completely through inability to tolerate the drugs).
SecondaryIncidence of Treatment Emergent Adverse Effects [Safety]12 months
Safety - symptoms of systemic or intracranial bleeding, recurrent cerebral and systemic vascular events, and vascular and non-vascular causes of death will be collected. It is estimated that in this trial the absolute risk of death, including fatal haemorrhage, will not differ significantly (ie fall outside the upper 95% CI) from 2% per year on trial drugs versus no trial drugs, when given in addition to guideline drugs; and will not increase bleeding or ischaemic SVD lesions significantly (at the p\<0.01 level) on MRI.
SecondaryTreatment Efficacy - Percentage of Participants Experiencing an Event (Stroke, TIA, Myocardial Ischaemia, Cognitive Impairment and Dementia)12 months
It is estimated that in this trial the combined rate of recurrent stroke, MI, death, cognitive impairment and dependency will be 40-50% at one year after enrolment in order to detect modest but clinically-important reductions in poor outcomes. The study has a 2x2 partial factorial design. This allows testing of both drugs when given alone and together. Participants were allocated into one of four treatment groups. However, as some participants were in a group which received both treatments simultaneously then the subgroups reported for IMP exposure include a count of both participants from the single and the combined treatment groups as the total number exposed to that IMP
