Trial summary

Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is one of the leading causes of disability and mortality worldwide. The treatment of this condition is time-critical, with the key to effective therapy being the early recanalization of the occluded vessel and restoration of blood flow to salvage the ischemic penumbra tissue.

About this study

Official title: Endovascular Treatment Post 1 Day (24 Hours): a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial on Efficacy and Safety for Stroke

Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is one of the leading causes of disability and mortality worldwide. The treatment of this condition is time-critical, with the key to effective therapy being the early recanalization of the occluded vessel and restoration of blood flow to salvage the ischemic penumbra tissue. Currently, the time window for endovascular treatment in the anterior circulation can be extended up to 24 hours. Exploring endovascular treatments for patients beyond this time window (from 24 hours to 30 days) could mean hope for a greater number of AIS patients.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Endovascular treatmentProcedure or surgery

    Also called mechanical revascularization

    Endovascular intervention can be performed under either general anesthesia or conscious sedation based on best practices as determined by treating physician. Attempt should be made to expedite the transition from imaging to treatment in as rapid a fashion as possible. The subject should be prepared for the planned interventional procedure according to standard hospital procedures. Mechanical revascularization should be performed with the operators standard thrombectomy technique using aspiration or a stent retriever, separately or in combination.

  • Standard medical treatmentOther

    Patients randomized to the control group will receive best conventional MT for acute ischemic stroke as determined by the attending stroke physician.

What is being measured

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

  1. The Distribution of Scores on the Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at Day 90

    Modified Rankin Scale:1. Total asymptomatic score 0 2, despite symptoms, but no obvious dysfunction, can complete all daily work and life score 1 Mildly disabled, unable to complete all pre-illness activities, but able to take care of daily tasks without assistance score 2 3, moderate disability, need some help, but can walk independently score 3 4, moderate to severe disability, can not walk independently, daily life needs help from others score 4 5, severe disability, bed rest, urinary incontinence, daily life completely dependent on others score 5 6. Death score 6

Secondary outcomes (18)
  1. Proportion of Patients With mRS 0-2 at Day 90 as a Measure of Functional Independence

    The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. The scale runs from 0-6 with "0" being perfect health without symptoms to "6" being death. 0 - No symptoms.

    1. No significant disability. Able to carry out all usual activities, despite some symptoms.
    2. Slight disability. Able to look after own affairs without assistance, but unable to carry out all previous activities.
    3. Moderate disability. Requires some help, but able to walk unassisted.
    4. Moderately severe disability. Unable to attend to own bodily needs without assistance, and unable to walk unassisted.
    5. Severe disability. Requires constant nursing care and attention, bedridden, incontinent.
