IRIS trial at #ESOC2025 shows promise for IL-6 receptor blocker tocilizumab as adjunct to EVT in acute ischemic stroke. Significant infarct volume reduction with favorable safety profile. A potential new step in neuroprotection - larger trials needed! #Stroke #Neuroprotection

Every 10 mg/dL ⬇️ in LDL for patients with ICAD stroke has 9% ⬇️ rates of recurrent stroke or MI. this theoretical framework suggests that PCSK9i can help achieve this. We need PCSK-9i trials in ICAD Jim Siegler (@jimsieglermd.bsky.social now) Tareq Kass-Hout Malik Ghannam Seemant Chaturvedi neurology.org/doi/10.1212/WN…
