Brief description of study

The main purpose of this study is to learn whether asundexian works better than placebo at reducing ischemic strokes in participants who recently had a non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke or temporary stroke-like symptoms when given in addition to standard antiplatelet therapy.  The study treatment asundexian is a new type of anticoagulant currently under development to provide further treatment options. It aims to further improve the standard of care with regard to the risk of bleeding.

Detailed description of study

Dependent on the treatment group, the participants will either take asundexian or placebo as tablets once a day for at least 3 months and up to 31 months.

Approximately every 3 months during the treatment period, either a phone call or a visit to the study site is scheduled on an alternating basis. In addition, one visit before and up to two visits after the treatment period are planned.

During the study, the study team will:
·        Check vital signs, such as blood pressure and heart rate
·        Examine the participants' heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG)
·        Take blood samples
·        Ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having.
