About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of the Dedicated Venous Sinus Thrombectomy Stent for Endovascular Treatment of Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis.

A prospective, single-center, open-label,randomized, controlled,non-inferiority clinical trial will be conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a dedicated venous sinus thrombectomy stent for endovascular treatment of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis.

Read the detailed description

Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy is reserved for the treatment of refractory cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) in the scenario of clinical deterioration in spite of appropriate anticoagulant therapy. However, due to the vascular anatomic and pathophysiological differences, the present used devices,such as stent retriever for arterial occlusion ,aspiration system and balloon catheter cannot provide optimal restoration of venous outflow for high load venous sinus thrombosis.This is a prospective, single-center, open-label, randomized, controlled , non-inferiority clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the dedicated venous sinus thrombectomy stent ,which is a novel NiTi- braided Stent Retriever compared to balloon catheter used before in our center. Patients are eligible if they have a radiologically proven CVST, a high probability of poor outcome.

The trial aims to randomize 60 patients with a 1:1 allocation to receive the dedicated venous sinus thrombectomy stent or balloon catheter.

The primary outcome is the success rate of immediate recanalization.The most important secondary outcomes are mRS and mortality rate at 90 days. The intracranial hemorrhage and other adverse events after post-operative 24 hours and 7 days are the principal safety outcomes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Success rate of immediate recanalization

    3-grade classification scheme that considers different grades for patients with complete recanalization, partial recanalization and no recanalization.

    Complete recanalization defined as blood flow without any interruption, Partial recanalization defined as small interruptions of continuous blood flow and narrowing of the venous lumen No recanalization defined as interrupted blood flow.

    Measured: immediately intra-operative

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. The proportion of functional independence (modified Rankin score 0-2)

    0-No symptoms; 1-No significant disability; 2-Slight disability; 3-Moderate disability; 4-Moderately severe disability; 5-Severe disability; 6-Dead.

    Measured: up to 7 days and 90 days post-procedure

  2. The time of thrombectomy procedure

    Measured: up to 7 days and 90 days post-procedure

    Measured: up to 7days

  7. Modified Rankin Scale

    Distribution of Modified Rankin Scale

    Measured: up to 7 days and 90 days post-procedure

  8. The incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage

    Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage within 7 days post-procedure, specifically intracranial hemorrhage (intracranial parenchymal hematoma, subarachnoid hemorrhage, an ventricular hemorrhage) accompanied by neurological deterioration (NIHSS score increased by ≥4 points compared with pre-procedure.

    Measured: within 7 days post-procedure

  9. Peri-procedural complications

    Procedure associated complications: vasospasm, dissection, perforation and emboli to new territory.

    Measured: intra-operative and 7 days post-procedure

  10. All cause mortality

    All cause mortality within 90 days post-procedure

    Measured: within 90 days post-procedure

  11. Incidence of device defects

    Defects of research devices during clinical trials, such as operational difficulties, broken devices and any incident related with device defects.

    Measured: intra-operative

  12. Incidence of SAE (serious adverse events) or AE (adverse events)

    Incidence of SAE (serious adverse events) or AE (adverse events) intra-operative, 24 hours, 7 days and 90 days post-procedure

    Measured: intra-operative, 24 hours, 7 days and 90 days post-procedure

  13. The recurrence rate of CVST

    The recurrence rate of CVST confirmed by clinical manifestations and imaging examinations

    Measured: up to 7 days and 90 days post-procedure
