Trial summary

This investigation will address the safety and feasibility of distal, intra-arterial sampling through endovascular access, in acute stroke patients. Levels of Magnesium will be measured in the region of infarct in patients who had been treated with intravenous Magnesium therapy following an acute stroke. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Magnesium Therapy: a Novel Platform for Neuroprotectant Sampling in Acute Stroke

This investigation will address the safety and feasibility of distal, intra-arterial sampling through endovascular access, in acute stroke patients. Levels of Magnesium will be measured in the region of infarct in patients who had been treated with intravenous Magnesium therapy following an acute stroke. This study attempts to address whether the traditional intravenous means of neuroprotectant administration achieves adequate concentration of the therapeutic agent in the area of diseased tissue.

What is being measured

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

  1. Magnesium concentration

    The primary endpoint is the relative concentration of Mg in the core cerebral ischemic zone, compared to systemic therapeutic Mg levels, as a measure of delivery efficacy of systemic administration.

    Measured: intra-procedure (at time of first pass of retrieval device)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Sampling feasibility

    sampling feasibility will be determined by the proportion of cases in which a cerebral circulation Mg level was successfully assayed

    Measured: intra-procedural (at time of first pass of retrieval device)

  2. Safety

    safety will be assessed by intraoperative adverse events, postoperative neurologic examination including NIH stroke scale, and postoperative brain imaging.

    Measured: post-operative day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing endovascular sampling in people with Acute Stroke, run by University of Southern California at 2 sites in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: FAST-Mag study finished). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Magnesium concentration (time frame: intra-procedure (at time of first pass of retrieval device)). 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 1 Aug 2017.
