About this study

Numerous patients are addressed to the Emergency Department for unspecific symptoms which can evoke a stroke, such as vertigo, isolated motor deficit, behavior disorder.

For these patients, when they arrive out of time for specific treatments such as thrombolysis and thrombectomy, the cerebral imagery is not an emergency, but necessary to confirm or invalidate the diagnostic of stroke.

If a biomarker could exclude the diagnostic of stroke, we could avoid an imagery for these patients.

PS100B is a biomarker whose blood level increases in case of stroke. It has already proven a prognostic value. Until now, it hasn't proven a diagnostic value because it take a few hours to increase in the blood.

It could have in prognostic value for patients who have the symptoms for more than 24 hours.

STROkE is a diagnostic, prospective, monocentric study, conducted at University Hospital Center of Poitiers (France).

The aim is to determine the value of PS100B to exclude the diagnostic of a stroke in case of evocative symptoms, for patients who are out of delay for a thrombolysis or a thrombectomy.

Patients eligible are the ones who present to the emergency department with symptoms evocative of stroke for more than 24 hours and less than 4 days. Patients included have a sample of blood withdrawn, in order to measure PS100B blood level.

The diagnostic of stroke is than confirmed or excluded by an adjudication comity, who are unaware of the result of PS100B blood level.

The diagnostic value of PS100B is determined with the help of a ROC curve.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic value of PS100B

    Determine the best couple sensibility / specificity of the blood value of PS100B with the help of a Receive Operating Charasteristics (ROC) curve for patients who present with symptoms evocative of stroke since more than 24 hours and less than 4 days

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Value of PS100B for ischemic strokes and hemorrhagic strokes

    Comparison of the mean value of PS100B between patients with ischemic strokes and hemorrhagic strokes

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Value of PS100B and time delay since the beginning of the symptoms

    Stratification of the value of PS100B with the delay of apparition of the symptoms and realization of the blood sample

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Prognostic value of PS100B

    Comparison of the value of PS100B and the patient's outcomes 28 days after inclusion. The patient's outcome will be assessed as follow : hospitalization, death and self-rated health perception.

    The self-rated health perception will be assessed with the scale EuroQOL (EQ)-5D-5L. The scale EQ-5D-5L is composed of :

    • a score on 5 levels : from 1 to 3 (no problem) and 4 to 5 (with problems)
    • analogic scale from 0 to 100 (0 = worst health perception ; 100 = best health perception)

    Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stroke, run by Poitiers University Hospital at 2 sites in France.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jan 2026. 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 France. 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?

Diagnostic value of PS100B (time frame: 1 day). 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 6 Jan 2026.
