  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Chinese population with symptomatic severe stenosis of intracranial atherosclerosis

Who may be able to join

  • An angiographically verified ≥ 70% stenosis of a major intracranial artery that causes TIA or minor stroke (NIH Stroke Scale score <9) within 90 days;
  • the lesion length <15 mm and normal arterial diameter adjacent to it between 2.0 mm and 4.5 mm;
  • patients having at least one atherosclerotic risk factor (arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, hyperhomocysteinemia and cigarette smoking).

Who cannot join

  • Non-atherosclerotic stenosis;
  • intracranial hemorrhage in the territory of the stenotic artery within 6 weeks; potential source of cardiac embolism;
  • concurrent intracranial tumor, aneurysm and cerebral arteriovenous malformation;
  • tandem >50% stenosis of extracranial carotid or vertebral artery; known contraindication to heparin, aspirin, clopidogrel, anesthesia and contrast media; hemoglobin <10 g/dl, platelet count <100,000;
  • international normalized ratio >1.5 (irreversible) and uncorrectable bleeding diathesis; and life expectancy <1 years because of other medical conditions.

About this study

This is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized trial to study one-year outcomes of the Wingspan system for the treatment of Chinese patients with symptomatic atherosclerotic severe intracranial stenosis.

Read the detailed description

The study will enroll 200 Chinese patients with atherosclerotic intracranial stenosis of 70% to 99% that causes a recent ischemic neurologic event.

The Winspan stenting following undersized Gateway balloon angioplasty will be performed at experienced centers (at least 10 cases' experiences of using the Wingspan system to treat the patients with intracranial stenosis for each center).

The primary endpoint of the study, independently evaluated by neurologists, is any stroke or death within 30 days, plus ischemic stroke in the stented artery territory between 31 day and 1 year.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Stenting of atherosclerotic intracranial stenosisProcedure or surgery

    Also called Wingspan stenting for intracranial stenosis

    Patients will receive aspirin 300mg and clopidogrel 75mg per day for 3 days or more before stenting,and for at least 1 month after stenting. Modifiable risk factors will be controlled according to major international guidelines.

    All stenting procedures will be performed in an elective setting, and under local or general anesthesia. The study will be terminated if stroke or death rate within 30 days of the stenting exceeds 15%.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Any stroke or death within 30 days, plus ischemic stroke in the stented artery territory between 31 day and 1 year

    Measured: One year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Ischemic stroke in the non-stented artery territory, hemorrhagic stroke and death from other vascular causes beyond 30 days, and emergent cerebral revascularization (ECER)and other major hemorrhages at any time within 1 year, and restenosis.

    Measured: One year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intracranial Atherosclerosis, run by Ministry of Health, China at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 May 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Wei-Jian Jiang, MD (86-10-6706-1935, cjr.jiangweijian@vip.163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Any stroke or death within 30 days, plus ischemic stroke in the stented artery territory between 31 day and 1 year (time frame: One year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 May 2008.
