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 18 years and older
- All sexes
- No healthy volunteers
- Adult, Older adult
Who may be able to join
- Age ≥18 years;
- Patients who are candidates for endovascular intervention with CTA-confirmed stenosis in the common carotid artery or C1 segment of internal carotid artery(Symptomatic: ≥50% stenosis; Asymptomatic: 70%-99% stenosis)(NASCET criteria) ;
- Symptomatic carotid artery stenosis: Non-disabling ischemic stroke or transient ischemic symptoms (TIA, including hemispheric events or transient monocular blindness) within 180 days prior to randomization;
- Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis: No history or examination findings suggestive of ipsilateral carotid ischemic symptoms(Non-carotid symptoms, contralateral carotid symptoms, symptom onset >180 days prior to randomization, or vertebrobasilar symptoms are classified as asymptomatic).
- Palpable radial pulse and negative Allen's test (confirming adequate ulnar collateral circulation);
- Feasible transradial access with achievable device delivery to the target lesion per operator assessment;
- Patients or legally authorized representatives comprehend the study purpose, voluntarily participate with signed informed consent, and commit to complete follow-up.
Who cannot join
- Patients with severe vascular tortuosity/dissection, extensive or diffuse atherosclerotic lesions involving the aortic arch or proximal common carotid artery, or post-surgical anatomy impeding catheter delivery;
- Severe stenosis, aneurysms ≥5mm in maximum diameter, arteriovenous malformations (AVM), or other significant cerebrovascular diseases in ipsilateral intracranial/extracranial arteries beyond the target vessel;
- Patients requiring simultaneous bilateral carotid interventions;
- Contraindicated in patients with severe allergies to interventional devices or agents related to carotid stenting (e.g., lidocaine, contrast agents, aspirin, clopidogrel);
- Preprocedural mRS ≥3;
- Progressive stroke within 2 weeks, hemorrhagic transformation of ischemic stroke within 3 months, or spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage within 12 months;
- Severe hematologic disorders (active bleeding, severe anemia, coagulopathy, or transfusion dependency), severe heart failure, severe hepatic/renal impairment, or acute coronary syndrome;
- Malignancy or life expectancy <1 year.
