  8. Patients with Dementia or psychiatric disease that would confound the neurological or functional evaluations.
  9. Anticipated life expectancy of less than 6 months;

  11. Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding;
  12. Current participation in any other clinical trial;
  13. The patient or the patient's legally authorized representative hasn't signed and dated an informed consent form;
  14. Rapidly improving neurologic examination.
  15. Excessive vascular access tortuosity that will likely result in unstable access platform.
  16. Seizures at stroke onset which would preclude obtaining a baseline NIHSS.
  17. Suspected intracranial dissection or cerebral vasculitis.
  18. Evidence of tandem cervical occlusion, or stenosis requiring treatment.
  19. Major surgery or significant trauma in the past 30 days or plan to have surgery in next 3 months after enrolled.
  20. CT or MRI evidence of mass effect or intra-cranial tumour (except small meningioma)
  21. Any type of cerebral hemorrhage (only microbleeds are allowed) on neuroimaging

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Successful recanalization is defined as modified Thrombolysis In Cerebral Ischemia scale 2b or 3. And it is evaluated by DSA(digital subtraction angiography ) intraoperative immediately in both treatment groups

Secondary Outcome Measures

Time to achieve recanalization
The period from femoral artery puncture to successful recanalization
NIHSS score at 24±2 hours
National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale( NIHSS),the NIHSS is a stroke severity score that is composed of 11 items; range from 0 to 42, higher values indicate more severe deficits
NIHSS score at 7±1 days or discharge
National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale( NIHSS),the NIHSS is a stroke severity score that is composed of 11 items; range from 0 to 42, higher values indicate more severe deficits
proportion of patients who got a mRS 0-2 at 90±14 days
The proportion of patients who got a mRS 0-2 in patients who receive stent retriever treatment.the mRs is an ordinal disability score of 7 categories (0 = no symptoms to 5 = severe disability, and 6 = death)
symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage after procedure

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study is a randomized, prospective, parallel-group, multicenter, open-label, non-inferiority trial. Patients are randomized 1 : 1 to either stent retriever(Catfish) or Solitaire for endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke. The study aims to evaluate the benefit and safety of stent retriever(Catfish) for acute ischemic stroke therapy, as compared to Solitaire FR.
Detailed Description
The main objective is to determine whether stent retriever(Catfish) will have non-inferior successful recanalization rate compared to Solitaire in patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by large vessel occlusion. The secondary objectives is to verify whether there is significant differences in time from artery puncture to successful recanalization (mTICI 2b or greater), NIHSS score at 24 hours and at 7 days or discharge if earlier, good clinical outcomes at 90 days (defined as mRS score ≤2) between stent retriever(Catfish) and Solitaire in patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by large vessel occlusion. The third objectives is to compare the rate of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, serious adverse event(SAE), all cause of mortality with 90 days after operation, between stent retriever (Catfish) and Solitaire in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion.
