About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized-controlled Trial to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Intravascular Hypothermia in Acute Ischemia Stroke Patients With Recanalization After Thrombectomy

The primary objective of this study is to determine the feasibility and safety of receiving intravascular hypothermia treatment for patients experiencing endovascular treatment after acute ischemic stroke(AIS) due to a large vessel occlusion.

Read the detailed description

Hypothermia has been confirmed and widely applied in the treatment of coma patients after resuscitation from cardiac arrest, but its effect on the prognosis of patients with AIS is still controversial. Previous basic research has confirmed that hypothermia can significantly reduce the infarct volume and improve the survival rate and behavioral defects of mice by protecting ischemic brain tissue and improving reperfusion injury through a variety of ways. Therefore, we hypothesized that hypothermia can improve the prognosis of patients with AIS after reperfusion by improving reperfusion injury. This is a phase II clinical trial to to verify the efficacy and safety of endovascular hypothermia in these patients,This study enrolled patients with massive cerebral infarction after endovascular treatment recanalization, patients are divided into study group and control group. The study group received endovascular hypothermia for 12 hours following endovascular treatment and recanalization, and the control group received only usual medical treatment following endovascular treatment and recanalization. We will preliminarily explore the mechanism of endovascular hypothermia in successful reperfusion of large vessel occlusion AIS, and to provide reference for the design of future clinical trials.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of study group patients achieving target temperature < 34 ºC within 2 hour after recanalization.

    Percentage of study group patients achieving target temperature < 34 ºC within 2 hour after recanalization.

    Measured: 2 hour after thrombectomy

  2. final infarct volume(FIV)

    Infarct volume was assessed according to the non-contrast Computed Tomography (NCCT) 3-7 days after surgery, and if several NCCT examinations were performed within 3-7 days, the last CT was used.

    Measured: three to seven days after endovascular therapy

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. the rate of 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS)(0-2)

    Compare the rate of 90-day mRS (0-2) between study group and control group

    Measured: 90 days

  2. The rate of early neurological deterioration

    increasing of National Institute of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS) ≥ 4 points 24 hours after recanalization

    Measured: 24 hours

  3. The rate of mortality

    The rate of mortality

    Measured: 90 days

  4. Systematic Intracranial Hemorrhagr(sICH)

    sICH with 24 ±3h post recanalization

    Measured: 24 ±3hours

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of study group patients achieving target temperature < 34 ºC within 2 hour after recanalization. (time frame: 2 hour after thrombectomy). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05676957, which also lists 13 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.
