About this study

Official title: Characterization of Clinical, Biological, Morphological and Pharmacological Factors Influencing Occurrence of Dementia or Cognitive Disorders After Stroke

If the risk of dementia occurrence after stroke is well known, few data exist about the factors influencing positively or negatively the developement of cognitive disorders or dementia. The aim of the study is so to determine prospectively the clinical, biological, lesional and pharmacological factors associated with post-stroke dementia by the long-term follow-up of a stroke patient cohort.

Read the detailed description

The STROKDEM study is based on the 5-year prospective follow-up of a population of 1100 stroke patients without dementia. At inclusion in the cohort, main antecedents and risk factors, previous treatment and lifestyle, initial severity and etiology are recorded. Biological samples (for standard ans specialized analyses) and MRI are performed at 72h after stroke occurrence. Thereafter, patients are regularly (6 months, 12 months, 36 months, 60 months) examined for clinical and cognitive assessment with biological samples and Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Patients with dementia will be compared to patients without stroke to identify, by logistic regression analysis and Cox model, the factors associated with dementia occurrence.

What is being measured

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

  1. dementia occurrence

    This evaluation will be based on a neurological and general clinical examination, and on the evaluation of activities of daily life using the Instrumental Activities Daily Life scale after an interview with the patient and his/her family.

    Measured: 60 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. dementia occurrence and cognitive impairment

    This evaluation will be based on a neurological and general clinical examination, and on the evaluation of activities of daily life using the Instrumental Activities Daily Life scale after an interview with the patient and his/her family.

    Impairment of some tests of cognitive battery without significant impairment in activities of daily living

    Measured: 6 months

  2. dementia occurrence and cognitive impairment

    This evaluation will be based on a neurological and general clinical examination, and on the evaluation of activities of daily life using the Instrumental Activities Daily Life scale after an interview with the patient ans his/her family.

    Impairment of some tests of cognitive battery without significant impairment in activities of daily living

    Measured: 12 months

  3. dementia occurence and cognitive impairment

    This evaluation will be based on a neurological and general clinical examination, and on the evaluation of activities of daily life using the Instrumental Activities Daily Life scale after an interview with the patient ans his/her family.

    Impairment of some tests of cognitive battery without significant impairment in activities of daily living

    Measured: 36 months

  4. cognitive impairment

    Impairment of some tests of cognitive battery without significant impairment in activities of daily living

    Measured: 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cerebrovascular Disorders and Dementia, run by University Hospital, Lille at 4 sites in France.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in France. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

dementia occurrence (time frame: 60 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01330160, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 16 Dec 2025.
