About this study

The aim of this study is to investigate the proportion of patients with moyamoya disease among the patients who were diagnosed as having intracranial atherosclerotic stroke. To do this, biomarkers (gene and imaging) for moyamoya disease are tested and follow up angiography are performed during follow up (in selected patients).

Read the detailed description
  1. Purpose Both moyamoya disease (MMD) and intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) are more prevalent in Asians than in Westerners, although the reason for the race-ethnic differences is unsettled. It is possible that patients with adult-onset MMD were misclassified as having ICAS, which may in part explain the high prevalence of intracranial atherosclerosis in Asians. It is important to differentiation between these two diseases because MMD and ICAS have differential therapeutic strategies (surgical revascularization in MMD vs. the use of antithrombotics/statins and stenting in ICAS). The ring finger 213 (RNF213) was recently identified as a susceptibility gene for MMD in East Asians. Characteristic high-resolution (HR) MRI findings of MMD and ICAS have recently been reported. The aim of this study is to investigate the proportion of patients with moyamoya disease among the patients who were diagnosed as having intracranial atherosclerotic stroke. To do this, biomarkers (gene and imaging) for moyamoya disease are tested and follow up angiography are performed during follow up (in selected patients).

What is being measured

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

  1. Frequency of RNF213 gene variants and HR-MRI findings in patients with intracranial atherosclerosis

    Measured: Anytime during study period (in intracranial atherosclerosis, HR-MRI findings within 2 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Frequency of typical angiographic findings of moyamoya disease at follow up conventional angiography in patients with intracranial atherosclerosis who showed typical gene and imaging biomarkers of moyamoya disease

    Measured: Within 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Moyamoya Disease and Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stroke, run by Samsung Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 12 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Apr 2017. 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 South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Oh Young Bang, MD PhD (82-2-3410-3599, nmboy@unitel.co.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Frequency of RNF213 gene variants and HR-MRI findings in patients with intracranial atherosclerosis (time frame: Anytime during study period (in intracranial atherosclerosis, HR-MRI findings within 2 weeks)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02074111, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 26 Apr 2017.
