About this study

This is a new vessel wall imaging-based stroke registry which will investigate the clinical utility of the whole-brain intracranial vessel wall Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technique in assessing the etiologies in patients with ischemic stroke.

Read the detailed description

The registry will focus on investigating the utility of whole-brain vessel wall MRI techniques in assessing the etiologies in patients with recent ischemic stroke. Patients who have had ischemic stroke (as confirmed by diffusion weighted MRI) and have had or will undergo 3D whole-brain vessel wall MRI within 8 weeks of symptom onset will be recruited into this study. It is anticipated that a total of 1000 subjects will be recruited from Feb 2017 to Feb 2019. Approximately 12 centers in the US and China will participate in the registry. MRI whole-brain vessel wall images will be analyzed for detection and characteristics of various vessel wall pathologies and association between vessel wall imaging findings and patient's clinical information.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ischemic Stroke, run by Cedars-Sinai Medical Center at 12 sites in 2 countries.

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 4 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 14 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in China, 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Zhaoyang Fan, PhD (310 248-8661, zhaoyang.fan@cshs.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Vessel wall pathology findings by MRI (time frame: baseline). 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 NCT02923752, which also lists 2 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 14 Aug 2018.
