  • Baseline NIHSS score obtained prior to randomization must be equal or higher than 8 points (assessed within one hour prior to qualifying imaging)
  • Age ≥18 years (no upper age limit)
  • Occlusion (TICI 0-1) of the intracranial ICA (distal ICA or T occlusions) and/or MCA-M1 segment suitable for endovascular treatment, as evidenced by CTA, MRA or angiogram, with or without concomitant cervical carotid occlusion or stenosis.
  • The presence of Age-Adjusted modified Clinical ASPECTS Mismatch (mCAM) defined as ASPECTS 5-10 and one of the following criteria:
Show all 11Show fewer
  • NIHSS ≥ 8 and >50% involvement in 0-1 Cortical (e.g. M1-6) ASPECTS areas (any age);

About this study

Official title: Randomization of Endovascular Treatment With Stent-retriever and/or Thromboaspiration vs. Best Medical Therapy in Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to Large VEssel OcclusioN Trial in the Extended Time Window

A phase III, randomized, multi-center, open label clinical trial that will examine whether endovascular treatment is superior to standard medical therapy alone in patients who suffer a large vessel anterior circulation ischemic stroke within 8-24 hours from time last seen well

Read the detailed description

Prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled, open-label, blinded-endpoint trial with a sequential design. The randomization employs a 1:1 ratio of mechanical thrombectomy with stent-retriever and/or thromboaspiration versus medical management alone in patients who suffer a large vessel anterior circulation ischemic stroke between 8 and 24 hours from time last seen well. Randomization will be done under a minimization process using age (≤68 vs. >68 years), baseline NIHSS (<17 v. ≥17), ASPECTS (5-7 vs. 8-10), therapeutic window (6-12 or 12-24 hours after TLKW), occlusion site (Intracranial ICA or M1), and clinical site. For the primary endpoint, subjects will be followed for 90 days post-randomization. Sham endovascular procedure has been rejected due to the medical risk of the angiography and practical issues that difficult to maintain blindness of investigators.

What is being measured

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

  1. Modified Rankin Scale scores

    Distribution of the modified Rankin Scale scores at 90 days (shift analysis). The score range from zero to 6 with higher values indicating a worst functional outcome at 90 days

    Measured: 90 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Proportion of Patients with Functional independence in 90 days

    Functional independence defined as mRS ≤2

    Measured: 90 days

  2. Disability on the utility-weighted modified Rankin scale (UW-mRS)

    Mean score for disability on the utility-weighted modified Rankin scale (UW-mRS). The score range from 1 to zero with higher values indicating a better functional outcome at 90 days

    Measured: 90 days

  3. Quality of life measured by EuroQol Group 5-Dimension Self-Report Questionnaire (EuroQol / EQ5D)

    Quality of life analysis as measured by EuroQol/EQ5D 5-Dimension Self-Report Questionnaire, on which scores range from -0.176 to 1, with higher values indicating a better quality of life]) at 90 days

    Measured: 90 days and 1 year

  4. Mortality at 90 days

    Mortality at 90 days

    Measured: 90 days

  5. Proportion of patients with Intracranial Hemorrhage at 24 hours

    Clinically significant ICH rates at 24 (-2/+12) hours. All intracerebral hemorrhages will be classified by a central core-lab using the Heidelberg criteria. Symptomatic ICH will be defined as per the SITS-MOST definition: deterioration in NIHSS score of ≥4 points within 24 hours from treatment and evidence of intraparenchymal hemorrhage type 2 in the 22 to 36 hours follow-up imaging scans.

    Measured: 24 hours

  6. Procedural related complications

    Procedural related complications: arterial perforation, arterial dissection, and embolization in a previously uninvolved vascular territory

    Measured: immediately after procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Thrombectomy in people with Stroke, Ischemic, run by Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre at 14 sites in Brazil.

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 11 inclusion and 24 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 10 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in Brazil. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Sheila CO Martins, MD, PhD (51999628467, scmartins@hcpa.edu.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Modified Rankin Scale scores (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 NCT04256096, 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 10 Feb 2021.
