Purpose
The aim of this study is the evaluation of two usual care strategies after stroke or TIA : achieved target LDL-C of 100 mg/dL (+/-10 mg/dL) or less than 70 mg/dL. Investigators will use the statin and titrate the dosage to achieve the target assigned by randomization in monotherapy or in combination with ezetimibe or other drugs.
The primary end-point is the occurrence of recurrent non fatal stroke, non fatal MI, and vascular death in each group.
3760 patients will be recruited and followed during three years.

LDL-C to100 mg/dL (+/-10 mg/dL)
Target : 100 mg/dL (+/-10 mg/dL): Patients recruited in this arm will receive statin +/-other lipid lowering therapy in order to reach a LDL-C concentration of 100 mg/dL(+/-10 mg/dL). |
Procedure: Target : 100 mg/dL (+/-10 mg/dL)
Statin +/- other lipid lowering therapy during 3 years, Target : LDL-C =100 mg/dL (+/-10 mg/dL), recording recurrent non fatal stroke, non fatal MI, and vascular death and others endpoints such as new onset diabetes, hemorrhagic strokes.
Other Name: treat to target

LDL-C < 70 mg/dL
70 mg/dL: Patients recruited in this arm will receive statin +/-other lipid lowering therapy in order to reach a LDL-C concentration of less than 70 mg/dL.

Procedure: 70 mg/dL
Statin +/-lipid lowering therapy during 3 years, Target : LDL-C concentration of less than 70 mg/dL, recording recurrent of non fatal stroke, non fatal IM, and vascular death and others endpoints such as: new onset diabetes, hemorrhagic strokes.

Show Detailed Description
Eligibility| Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older |
| Genders Eligible for Study: | Both |
| Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- • Recent (less than 3 months) ischemic stroke
- As soon as possible after the event, once the neurologic deficit is stabilized (investigator judgment)
These ischemic strokes include TIA with ischemic lesion documented by CT or MRI
• Or recent TIA (less than 15 days)
- without documentation of ischemic lesion on CT/MR imaging
Must be limb weakness or aphasia lasting more than 10 min
• And documented atherosclerotic stenosis
- In carotid artery (investigator judgment) (based on the results of Duplex echography, CTA, MRA or X ray- angiography)
- Or in the aortic arch (investigator judgment) (based on TEE or CTA)
- Or in other brain artery: vertebral, basilar or other intracranial artery (based on CTA, MRA, XRA)
Or in coronary arteries (past history of acute coronary syndrome, coronary revascularization or positive coronary angiography)
• And
- Statin treatment is indicated, following AFSSAPS guidelines (French drug agency)
- age >18 years
- rankin score ≤ 4
- patient or a legal representative signs consent
- Patient is affiliated to social security system
Exclusion Criteria:
- • Ischemic stroke/TIA du to
- arterial dissection (investigator judgment)
Cardiac source of embolism (e.g., mitral stenosis, endomyocardial fibrosis) without documented atherosclerotic stenosis : a patient with atrial fibrillation or a past history of recent myocardial infarction or calcified aortic stenosis can be randomized if he otherwise fulfils inclusion criteria
• Symptomatic hemorrhagic stroke
- Presence of microbleeds on gradient echo imaging (T2*) is not an exclusion criteria.
Hemorrhagic transformation of an ischemic stroke is not an exclusion criteria
- Uncontrolled hypertension (investigator judgment)
- LDL-C <100 mg/dL or patients for whom treatment intensification is impossible
- F/U impossible or bad observance anticipated.
- Co-morbid condition that may interfere with the F/U or with the evaluation of primary endpoint
- Participation to another clinical trial
