BELgian CT-perFUSion Study to Select Acute Stroke Patients for Thrombectomy

NCT05685043 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2024-09-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether perfusion CT can be used as a selection tool in stroke patients with a major anterior circulation occlusion, to exclude patients from thrombectomy because of a predicted non-beneficial outcome, when treated within 6 hours of symptom onset.

Researchers will compare the experimental group, where mechanical thrombectomy is only performed when prespecified perfusion CT criteria are fulfilled, with the standard of care treatment group, where all patients will receive mechanical thrombectomy, to see if functional independence at 90 days is non-inferior.

Interventions

DEVICE

perfusion CT

Patients are selected for thrombectomy based on perfusion CT criteria. When the results from the perfusion CT scan (analyzed by RAPID software) indicate a core infarct volume exceeding 70 ml in patients \< 80 years or 55 ml in patients \> 80 years, then treatment is limited to best medical treatment (intravenous fibrinolysis if applicable) and no mechanical thrombectomy will be performed. This is the current standard of care for patients treated more than 6 hour after onset.
