Feasibility Study of the Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke Using the NOVIS Transcarotid Neuroprotection System (NITE1)
Acute Ischemic Stroke
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Acute Ischemic Stroke focused on measuring mechanical thrombectomy, stroke treatment, embolic protection, transcarotid
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria Summary:
1. Patients presenting with acute ischemic stroke of the anterior circulation with large vessel occlusions who are eligible for revascularization using endovascular therapies (stentrievers and/or aspiration devices)
2. Occlusion of the intracranial ICA, MCA M1, proximal MCA M2, single-vessel MCA M2, dominant MCA M2, or co-dominant MCA M2 segments
3. Patient has failed transfemoral therapy (see Appendix 4 for definition), and at least 15 minutes have elapsed from groin puncture
Exclusion Criteria Summary:
1. Significant disease of the ipsilateral common carotid artery on routine CTA
2. Presence of a cervical ICA loop or other high-risk anatomical features of the ICA on routine CTA, that may preclude the use of the NOVIS NPS
3. Any active or recent hemorrhage within the past 30 days
4. Embolectomy contraindications
a. Pre-stroke mRS ≥2 b. NIHSS ≤ 5 c. ASPECTS ≤ 5
5. IV tPA has been or is being administered
6. Last known well > 24 hours ago

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
NOVIS Transcarotid Neuroprotection System (NPS)
Patients that have failed transfemoral endovascular therapy in the case of anterior circulation strokes due to large vessel embolic occlusions will enrolled in the study and treated using the NOVIS Transcarotid NPS.
