Active clinical trials for "Ischemic Stroke"

he purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of remote ischemic conditioning for acute ischemic stroke.

This study aims to build a database for patients with acute ischemic stroke who receive endovascular therapy and analyze the current situation, effectiveness, safety and cost-effectiveness of endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke in China.

Acute ischemic stroke is caused by blockage of blood vessels in the brain. Blood vessels can be obstructed by several different mechanisms and identification of this cause is essential to minimize the risk of recurrence.

Health inequality and genetic disparity are a significant issue in the United Kingdom (UK). This study focuses on diseases that are associated with significant morbidity and mortality in the UK, and specifically examines the extent and basis of treatment failure in different patient populations. The vast majority of drug registration clinical trials have under-representation of ethnic minority populations. In addition, the wider Caucasian populations have reasonably different clinical characteristics to the population that participated in the drug licencing clinical trials. A consequence of this is that drugs are licensed for use in real-world general patient populations where the clinical trial results are simply not statistically significant to specifically demonstrate efficacy or safety in populations that were either absent or under-represented in the drug registration clinical trials. When these facts are considered alongside data that supports significant under-reporting of adverse events in the real-world setting within the UK (and globally, e.g the USA and Europe), it highlights that pharmacovigilance systems are unable to capture drug effectiveness and safety data in a manner that can reasonably assure appropriate prescribing in the wider patient populations. This large real-world research study aims to identify whether commonly prescribed drugs are effective in treating illnesses that cause significant poor health and death in the different patient populations that represent the UK. The goal of this study is to generate large quantitative data-sets that may inform clinical practice to reduce the existing health inequality and genetic disparity in the UK.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of using Microport CardioAdvance Left Atrium Appendage Closure for preventing stroke in Non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients who have contraindications for long-term anti-coagulation. And to support registration approval from National Medical Products Administration (NMPA).

Clot extraction failure during mechanical thrombectomy is a major concern in the management of acute ischemic stroke related to large vessel occlusions. Indeed, it can occur in up to 10 to 30% of cases and, therefore, is associated with a very poor prognosis. These refractory occlusions frequently occur when an underlying intracranial atherosclerotic disease is present. Thus, one of the most promising rescue technique consists of placing a permanent intracranial stent, under dual antiplatelet therapy over the target refractory occlusion. This strategy is well studied in coronary occlusions where the atheroscotic mechanism is highly prevalent. However, as the ischemiated brain is at much higher risk of hemorrhagic complications, such strategy entails a greater risk. This raises the question of whether such risk is worth the reward of obtaining reperfusion. The investigators designed this randomized study in order to evaluate whether a strategy combining rescue pemanent intracranial stenting with the best medical treatment is superior to the best medical treatment alone in acute refractory large vessel occlusions.

This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel, placebo-controlled trial design to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the KPCXM18 injection at different doses for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke and its PK/PD characteristics in patients.

First prospective, single-arm, single-centre study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the iNstroke thromboaspiration catheter system (iNstroke) for stroke in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

The aim of the study was to establish tenecteplase thrombolysis database and to investigate the effectiveness and safety of rhTNK-tPA in acute ischemic stroke patients.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of levofloxacin combined with endovascular thrombectomy in treating acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion of anterior circulation.
