Title: The Double-Blind, Randomized, Multi-Center, and Active Controlled Trial for Efficacy and Safety of Cilostazol in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to study efficacy and safety of cilostazol use in patients with acute ischemic stroke.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients who receive explanation on this study and give informed consent
* Patients aged 30 to 85 years
* Baseline NIHSS less than 15
* Onset of symptoms within 48 hours of the start of investigational product
* Full functional independence prior to the present stroke indicated by an mRS score of 0, 1, 2

Exclusion Criteria:

* Evidence from CT or MRI scan of an acute intracranial hemorrhage, a tumor, encephalitis or any diagnosis other than acute ischemic stroke likely to cause the present symptoms.
* Previous regular use of an antiplatelet agent or warfarin
* Patients with known cardiac disease likely to cause cardiogenic embolism or congestive heart failure
* Evidence from CT or MRI scan of midline shift when visiting hospital
* Uncontrolled hypertension (SBP\>220 mmHg or DBP\>120 mmHg)
* Hypotension (\<90/60 mmHg)
* Patients with known bleeding diathesis or coagulation disorder
* Patients with liver disease (ALT\>100 or AST\>100), or renal disease (creatinine\>2.0 mg/dl)
* Known severe anaemia (hemoglobin\<8.0 mg/dl), or thrombocytopenia (platelet\<100,000/mm3)
* Scheduled for endarterectomy within 3 months
* Severe co-morbidity likely to limit patient's life expectancy to less than 6 months
* Patients with alcohol or illegal drug abuse or dependency
* Pregnant or lactating patients. When administrating to females, it should be confirmed that the patients is in the menopause (by evaluation of investigators) or permanently infertile (hysterectomy or surgical operation like bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, etc). If a patient is likely to be pregnant, the patient should not be pregnant before randomization. And, the patient should use reliable contraception between at least 3 weeks before randomization to 7 days after the final administration of study drug.
* Patients treated by thrombolytic agents like tPA after onset of stroke
B: Inclusion Criteria:

-Clinical diagnosis of ischaemic stroke causing a measurable neurological deficit defined as impairment of language, motor function, cognition and/or gaze, vision or neglect. Symptoms must be distinguishable from an episode of generalised ischaemia (i.e. syncope), seizure, or migraine disorder.

Main inclusion criteria:

* Patients at risk of stroke who have had transient ischaemia of the brain or completed ischaemic stroke due to thrombosis
* Symptoms of ischaemic attack began less than 24 hours prior to study medication start, are to be present for at least 30 minutes and have not significantly improved before start of treatment
* Patients are eligible for platelet inhibiting treatment
* National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) between 5 and 20 (at pre-screening and screening)
* Actual Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) (at baseline) is worse than retrospective mRS (before stroke)
* A contraindication for stroke lysis is given
* Patients are able to give (at least oral) informed consent and to swallow either medication

Exclusion Criteria:

* Hypersensitivity to any of the components of the product or salicylates.
* Patients with active gastric or duodenal ulcers or with bleeding disorders.
* Pregnancy during the third trimester.
* Lysis therapy.
* A platelet inhibiting therapy with Acetylsalicylic Acid (ASA) doses of more than 100 mg per day, or with clopidogrel of any dose has been planned or started.
* Time of onset of stroke symptoms is unknown (when a stroke happened during night-/sleeping time, bedtime is assumed as time of onset)
C: Inclusion criteria:

* Adult subjects (male or female≥40 years)
* Acute non-disabling ischemic stroke (NIHSS≤3 at the time of randomization) that can be treated with study drug within 24 hours of symptoms onset. Symptom onset is defined by the "last see normal" principle
* TIA (Neurological deficit attributed to focal brain ischemia, with resolution of the deficit within 24 hours of symptom onset), that can be treated with study drug within 24 hours of symptoms onset and with moderate-to-high risk of stroke recurrence (ABCD2 score≥4 at the time of randomization).Symptom onset is defined by the "last see normal" principle
* Informed consent signed

Exclusion Criteria:

* Diagnosis of hemorrhage or other pathology, such as vascular malformation, tumor, abscess or other major non-ischemic brain disease (e.g., multiple sclerosis) on baseline head CT or MRI
* Isolated or pure sensory symptoms (e.g., numbness), isolated visual changes, or isolated dizziness/vertigo without evidence of acute infarction on baseline head CT or MRI
* Modified Rankin Scale Score\>2 at randomization (pre-morbid historical assessment)
* NIH Stroke Score≥4 at randomization
* Clear indication for anticoagulation(presumed cardiac source of embolus, e.g., atrial fibrillation, prosthetic cardiac valves known or suspected endocarditis)
* Contraindication to clopidogrel or ASA
* Known allergy
* Severe renal or hepatic insufficiency
* Severe cardiac failure, asthma
* Hemostatic disorder or systemic bleeding
* History of hemostatic disorder or systemic bleeding
* History of thrombocytopenia or neutropenia
* History of drug-induced hematologic or hepatic abnormalities
* Low white blood cell (\<2 x109/l) or platelet count (\<100 x109/l)
* Use of thrombolysis within 24 hours prior to randomization
* History of intracranial hemorrhage
* Anticipated requirement for long-term non-study antiplatelet drugs, or NSAIDs affecting platelet function
* Current treatment (last dose given within 10 days before randomization) with heparin therapy or oral anti coagulation
* Gastrointestinal bleed or major surgery within 3 months
* Planned or likely revascularization (any angioplasty or vascular surgery) within the next 3 months (if clinically indicated, vascular imaging should be performed prior to randomization whenever possible)
* Scheduled for surgery or interventional treatment requiring study drug cessation
* Qualifying TIA or minor stroke induced by angiography or surgery
* Severe non-cardiovascular comorbidity with life expectancy \< 3 months
* Women of childbearing age not practicing reliable contraception who do not have a documented negative pregnancy test
* Currently receiving an investigational drug or device
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Men or women equal or elder 40 years of age
* Either acute ischaemic stroke or high-risk TIA as defined here and randomisation occurring within 24 hours after onset of symptoms

Key Exclusion Criteria:

* Planned use of antithrombotic therapy in addition to study medication including antiplatelets (eg, open label ASA, GPIIb/IIIa inhibitors, clopidogrel, ticlopidine, prasugrel, dipyridamole, ozagrel, cilostazol) and anticoagulants (eg, warfarin, oral thrombin and factor Xa inhibitors, bivalirudin, hirudin, argatroban, unfractionated and low molecular weight heparins). - Any history of atrial fibrillation, ventricular aneurysm or suspicion of cardioembolic pathology for TIA or stroke. - Planned carotid, cerebrovascular, or coronary revascularisation that requires halting study medication within 7 days of randomisation. - Receipt of any intravenous or intra-arterial thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy within 24 hours prior to randomisation - History of previous symptomatic non-traumatic intracerebral bleed at any time (asymptomatic microbleeds do not qualify), gastrointestinal (GI) bleed within the past 6 months, or major surgery within 30 days.
