About this study
To collect real-world evidence allowing assessment of functional, imaging, and safety outcomes of MicroVention market-released acute ischemic stroke devices when used at the direction of the treating physician.
Read the detailed description
This is a prospective, multi-center, single arm, observational, Real World Evidence (RWE) post-market study with two cohorts.
The primary objective of Cohort I of the RESTORE study is to determine the proportion of subjects achieving successful revascularization (mTICI ≥ 2b) with the SOFIA® Flow Plus 6F Aspiration Catheter when used in conjunction with the direct aspiration as first line treatment technique for patients with acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation based on collection of real-world evidence data. Secondary objectives include the evaluation of good functional outcome (defined as mRS ≤ 2 at day 90), revascularization time, and procedure related major neurological complications, all based on real-world evidence data collected.
The objective of Cohort II of the study is to evaluate standard outcomes such as successful revascularization (mTICI ≥ 2b), good functional outcome (defined as mRS ≤ 2 at day 90), revascularization time, and procedure related major neurological complications based on real-world evidence data. Additional outcomes may be defined and research questions generated based on review of the collected data.

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 37 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 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?
Cohort I: Proportion of subjects achieving mTICI ≥ 2b revascularization based on independent core lab assessment (time frame: During the procedure). 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 18 Jun 2025.
