What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT02072681
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Mild and Rapidly Improving Ischemic StrokePatients 18 years or older with mild or rapidly improving acute ischemic stroke defined clinically. .Absence of non-ischemic conditions neuro-imaging (i.e. absence of hemorrhage or a mass on brain imaging that arrived to the hospital within 4.5 hours after the onset of stroke symptoms. All participants will have two follow up telephone calls: One at approximately 30 days after the stroke and one at approximately 90 days after the stroke to ask questions about how well participant can carry out usual duties after the stroke, how much assistance do he/she needs to perform your daily activities and how good or bad would he/she considers current health to be.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients not independent at 90 days

    The primary outcome measure is proportion of patients with a modified Rankin Scale of 2-6 at 90 days

    Measured: 90 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Proportion of patients with dependence or disability in activities of daily living at 90 days

    Proportion of patients not independent in activities of daily living defined as a Barthel Index score <95

    Measured: 90 days

  2. Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage due to Alteplase

    Amongst those that receive intravenous Alteplase, a secondary safety measure is the proportion of patients that develop neurologic worsening development of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage, defined as neurological deterioration that, in the judgment of the investigator, is related to intracranial hemorrhage confirmed by CT or MRI, within 36 hours of administration of Alteplase.

    Measured: 36 hours

  3. Proportion of patients not independent at 30 days

    Proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale 2-6 at 30 days.

    Measured: 30 days

  4. Quality of life by the EuroQOL EQ-5D

    EuroQOL will be treated as a continuous measure

    Measured: 90 days

  5. Stroke disability by the Stroke-Impact Scale-16

    SIS-16 will be treated as a continuous measure

    Measured: 90 days

  6. Independence with Activities of Daily Living by the Barthel Index

    BI will be treated as a continuous measure; pre specified analysis include proportion of patients with Barthel Index <95

    Measured: 90 days

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?

Proportion of patients not independent at 90 days (time frame: 90 days). 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 NCT02072681, which also lists 6 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 15 Jul 2021.
