Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 2 to 60 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: Consecutive patients diagnosed with MMD in Beijing Tiantan Hospital will be recruited. Eligibility will be determined through a checklist of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Relatives will be recruited from the first-degree relatives of patients with MMD.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with age between 2-60 years;
  • A clinical diagnosis of moyamoya disease, including unilateral and bilateral disease.
  • Patients are medically treated with antiplatelets, antiepileptics, antihypertensives and vasodilators depending on the presentation.
  • Capable of understanding the purpose and risk of the study and has signed the informed consent. If the participant is not capable of this at the time of enrollment, a legally authorized representative will provide written informed consent in accordance with all regulations.
  • Ability to comply with study follow-up.

Who cannot join

  • Concomitant other diseases, including systemic vasculitis, neurofibroma, meningitis, sickle cell disease, down's syndrome, and previous basilar radiotherapy.
  • Patients with cardiogenic embolism, including a history of atrial fibrillation, valvular disease or cardiac valve replacement.
  • Patients are allergic to the contrast agents.
  • Patients are treated with direct, indirect, or combined revascularization depending on the presentation.
  • Physical or subjective failure to cooperate with the examination or serious comorbid diseases.
  • Patients are unable or unlikely to return for follow-up visits.
  • Any other reasons that, in the opinion of the investigators, make the participant unsuitable for enrollment.

About this study

Official title: Long-term Outcomes of Conservative Management in Patients with Moyamoya Disease and Their First-degree Relatives

The purpose of this study is to investigate the long-term outcomes of conservative management in patients with moyamoya disease and their first-degree relatives, and provide potential pathogenesis of moyamoya disease.

Read the detailed description

Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a chronic occlusive-stenosis cerebrovascular disease that characterized by the stenosis of internal carotid artery termination and the formation of net-like vessel. It is a multifactorial disease caused by genetic, inflammatory, immunological and other environmental factors. The specific pathogenesis of MMD is still unclear. The treatment modalities of revascularization and conservative management have been used in patients with MMD. However, the long-term outcomes of MMD with conservative management remain unknown. Also, some first-degree relatives who are carriers of genetic variants occasionally manifest with intracranial arterial stenosis. Therefore, it is significant to detect the long-term outcomes of conservative treatment in MMD patients and their first-degree relatives, and thus provide potential pathogenesis of MMD.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Moyamoya Disease, run by Beijing Tiantan Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Qian Zhang, MD (8613120012579, zhangqianchina@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cerebrovascular events (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Dec 2024.
