About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Acute Ischemic Stroke

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 80 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Acute ischemic stroke from large vessel occlusion (LVO)
  • Failed recanalization after treatment with thrombectomy, i.e. persistent occlusion of intracranial internal carotid artery (ICA), proximal segment (M1, M2) of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) (TICI 0-1)
  • Small to moderate infarct core prior to initiation of thrombectomy (CT ASPECTS 6-10, DWI lesion < 70 ml)
  • Suspected underlying stenosis of the occluded artery amenable to stenting by judgement of the treating neurointerventionalist
  • Age 18- 80 years
  • Informed consent (see below)
  • Decision to perform angioplasty and stenting < 12 hours of symptom onset
  • Previous passage of occlusion with microcatheter obtained

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Large infarct core prior to initiation of thrombectomy (CT ASPECTS 0-5, DWI lesion > 70 ml)
  • Vessel occlusion or stenosis of different known or suspected cause than atherosclerosis (e.g. vasculitis)
  • Pre-stroke disability (MRS > 2)
  • Any sign of intracranial haemorrhage on brain imaging prior to thrombectomy
  • Any sign of intracranial vessel perforation during thrombectomy
  • Contraindication against treatment with double anti-platelet treatment
  • Current effective use of oral anticoagulants (e.g. INR > 1.7 for Vitamin K antagonists)
  • More than 3 attempts for recanalization of target lesion prior to the use of the study device.
  • Stenosis longer than the working length of the NeuroSpeed PTA balloon catheter.
  • Diameter of the healthy vessel proximal and distal to the stenosis prevents save treatment with the NeuroSpeed PTA balloon catheter or is outside the indicated range of the Credo stent.
  • Diameter of the target area is outside the indicated range of the Credo stent after predilation.
  • Contraindication against anti-platelet or anticoagulation therapy
  • Heavily calcified lesions that may prevent access or safe stent placement.
  • Pregnant and breastfeeding women

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Other

Arm Label

ACUTE

Arm Description

Patients with acute ischemic stroke and proven large vessel occlusion (e.g. intracranial internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery) with unsuccessful recanalization after endovascular treatment with mechanical thrombectomy and suspected underlying stenosis of the occluded intracranial artery amenable to stenting based on judgment by the treating neurointerventionalist.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Co-Primary Technical Efficacy Endpoint
Technical success defined as successful recanalization of the occluded vessel (TICI 2b-3) at the end of the procedure (successful PTA + permanent stenting).
Co-Primary Clinical Efficacy Endpoint
Good clinical outcome 90 (±10) days after stroke defined as a score of 0-2 on the modified Ranking Score (MRS 0-2).
Primary Safety Endpoints
Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (SICH) as defined in SITS-MOST (within 18-36 hours of treatment) Device-related procedural complications: Dissection, perforation or rupture of the target vessel, embolism, stent thrombosis or occlusion, stent migration.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Efficacy Endpoints
Categorical shift in MRS 90 (±10) days after stroke Functional health status and quality of life 90 (±10) days after stroke (EQ-5D) Infarct growth by 18-36 hours after stroke as compared to predicted infarct growth Frequency of residual stenosis > 50 %
Secondary Safety Endpoints
Ischemic stroke in downstream territory of the occluded vessel within 90 (±10) days after stroke Parenchymal hemorrhage type 2 (PH-2) after 18-36 hours Embolization in new territories Mortality 90 (±10) days after stroke Death or dependency 90 (±10) days after stroke (MRS 4-6)
