Background And Purpose: The Combined Approach to Lysis Utilizing Eptifibatide and Recombinant Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator (r-tPA; CLEAR) in Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) and CLEAR-Enhanced Regimen (CLEAR-ER) trials demonstrated safety of reduced dose r-tPA plus the glycoprotein 2b/3a inhibitor, eptifibatide, in AIS compared with r-tPA alone. The objective of the CLEAR-Full Dose Regimen (CLEAR-FDR) trial was to estimate the rate of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) in AIS patients treated with the combination of full-dose r-tPA plus eptifibatide.

Methods: CLEAR-FDR was a single-arm, prospective, open-label, multisite study.
