Trial summary

The primary aim of this study are to gather data on the "real world" experience of the Penumbra System and to determine if there is a correlate between the imaging-defined size of the ischemic penumbra at admission and patient outcome in patients already treated by the System.

About this study

Official title: Penumbra Imaging Collaborative Study (PICS): A Multicenter Trial to Assess Outcome of Patients Revascularized by the Penumbra™ System

The primary aim of this study are to gather data on the "real world" experience of the Penumbra System and to determine if there is a correlate between the imaging-defined size of the ischemic penumbra at admission and patient outcome in patients already treated by the System. This will be accomplished by the collection of all available admission imaging data along with patient clinical and functional outcome results at 90-day follow-up to determine if a positive association exists between these variables. A secondary aim is to collect and summarize the 90-day functional outcome data for the purpose of sample size estimation for a potential randomized concurrent controlled trial. This will be accomplished by collecting the data on 90-day modified Rankin Scores (mRS) and all cause mortality.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of patients with an imaging-defined ischemic penumbra at admission that warrants revascularization by the Penumbra System.

    Measured: Admission

  2. Proportion of patients with successful revascularization of the occluded target vessel as defined by a TIMI score of 2 or 3 following use of the Penumbra System.

    Measured: Post-Procedure

  3. The proportion of patients with a modified Rankin Score (mRS) of ≤2 at 90 days post-procedure.

    Measured: 90-Days Post-Procedure

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Neurological status as defined by the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores at Admission and Discharge.

    Measured: Admission and Discharge

  2. Incidence of intracranial hemorrhage.

    Measured: 24-Hours Post-Procedure

  3. Incidence of device-related serious adverse events.

    Measured: During the Procedure

  4. All cause mortality at 90 days post-procedure.

    Measured: 90-Days Post-Procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stroke, run by Penumbra Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of patients with an imaging-defined ischemic penumbra at admission that warrants revascularization by the Penumbra System. (time frame: Admission). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Apr 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
