Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 85 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Aged18-85years.
  • Subject who is contraindicated or failed (when the physician withdraws the tPA per physician discretion) intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) therapy given at local institutions or within national practice. Failed means that the physician does not continue with IV tPA after thrombolysis; there is still an occlusion with TICI that is </= 1 as the relevant inclusion criteria.

  • NIHSS score ≥8.
  • Pre-stroke mRS (modified Rankin Scale) score of 0 to 1.
  • Thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI) ≤1 and causative occlusion of the M1 or M2 portion of the MCAs, anterior cerebral arteries, vertebral arteries, basilar artery ,or posterior cerebral arteries (P1 o rP2), confirmed by CT or MR angiography that is accessible to the Amnis thrombectomy device (i.e. according to IFU; 2-5.5 mm).
  • ASPECTS of ≥6 based on CT or MRI that was performed within 60 min prior to the start of endovascular procedure.
  • Subject or subject's legal guardian where regulations permit, signs the Patient Informed Consent and agrees that subject will attend follow-up visits.

Who cannot join

  • Rapid neurological improvement prior to or at time of treatment suggesting resolution of signs/symptoms of stroke.
  • Estimated time of symptom onset.
  • Baseline NIHSS score <8.
  • BaselineNIHSS score ≥30 or state of coma.
  • Baseline pre-stroke mRS score >1.

  • Known serious sensitivity to radiographic contrast agent.
  • Arterial tortuosity, pre-existing stent and/o rother arterial disease that would prevent the device from reaching the target vessel.
  • Evidence of a moderate/large core defined as extensive early ischemic changes of Alberta Stroke Program Early CT score (ASPECTS) <6.
  • Co-morbid conditions:
  • Elevated blood pressure(systolic>185 mm Hg or diastolic >110 mm Hg)
  • Use of warfarin anticoagulation with INR >3.0.
  • Platelet count <30,000/mm³.
  • Blood glucose concentration <50 mg/dL (2.7 mmol/L).
  • CT/MRI imaging demonstrate smultilobar infarction (hypodensity >1/3 cerebral hemisphere).
  • CT or MRI evidence of mass effect, signs of hemorrhage, arteriovenous malformation or aneurysm or intra-cranial tumor (except small meningioma).
  • Angiographic evidence of carotid dissection, complete cervical carotid occlusions or vasculitis.
  • Clinical Symptoms or CT/MRI imaging suggest subarachnoid hemorrhage.
  • Imaging evidence that suggests, in the opinion of the investigator, the subject is not appropriate for mechanical thrombectomy intervention (e.g. inability to navigate to target lesion, moderate/large infarct with poor collateral circulation, etc.).
  • General - related to the protocol or device:
  • Known sensitivity to nickel, titanium metals or their alloys.
  • Subject who requires hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis, or who has a contraindication to an angiogram for whatever reason.
  • Current participation in another investigational drug or device study.
  • Female who is pregnant or lactating or has a positive pregnancy test at time of admission.
  • Subject currently uses or has a recent history of illicit drug(s) or abuses alcohol (defined as regular or daily consumption of more than four alcoholic drinks per day).
  • Subject has a life expectancy of <90 days.
  • Subject with a comorbid disease or condition that would confound the neurological and functional evaluations or compromise survival or ability to complete follow-up assessments.

About this study

Prospective, single-arm, open label, Safety and Performance clinical investigation.

Read the detailed description

The Amnis Thrombectomy Device is intended to restore blood flow by removing thrombus from intracranial vessels in patients experiencing ischemic stroke. Pre-CE mark clinical investigation. Population will be subjects with documented untreated, acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion.

What is being measured

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

  1. All serious adverse events (notably at 24 hours ± 3 hrs post procedure or until alternative stroke treatment is initiated, whichever comes first).

    It will investigate whether the application of Amnis Thrombectomy device is a safe method, in acute stroke therapy, for obtaining recanalization of large vessels and with favorable patient outcome.

    Measured: 24 hours ± 3 hrs post procedure or until alternative stroke treatment is initiated, whichever comes first.

  2. All cause mortality (90 days).

    Determine the number of participants with treatment-related adverse events.

    Measured: 3 months post-procedure

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Arterial recanalization of the occluded target vessel in the immediate post-procedure angiogram.

    Arterial recanalization of the occluded target vessel as angiographically scored by a Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (TICI) flow grade of 2b or greater in the immediate post-procedure angiogram.

    Measured: Immediate post-procedure angiogram.

  2. Proportion of patients with rapid neurological improvement as determined by a NIHSS ≤4.

    Proportion of patients with rapid neurological improvement (more than 4 points on the NIHSS or NIHSS ≤4) during the first 24 hours after treatment.

    Measured: First 24 hours after treatment

  3. Good functional clinical outcome as determine by a modified Rankin Scale score of 0-2.

    Proportion of patients with rapid neurological improvement (more than 4 points on the NIHSS or NIHSS ≤4) during the first 24 hours after treatment.

    Measured: First 24 hours after treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Thrombectomy Device in people with Ischemic Stroke, run by Amnis Therapeutics at 4 sites in 2 countries.

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 8 inclusion and 27 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Spain, Sweden. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Subject recruitment problem due to Covid pandemic). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

All serious adverse events (notably at 24 hours ± 3 hrs post procedure or until alternative stroke treatment is initiated, whichever comes first). (time frame: 24 hours ± 3 hrs post procedure or until alternative stroke treatment is initiated, whichever comes first.). The study lists 2 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 25 Jul 2022.
