Trial summary

Carotid artery stenting(CAS) and endarterectomy(CEA) are both important treatment strategy for patients with ICA (internal carotid artery) stenosis. Three dimensional pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (pCASL) is a noninvasive perfusion imaging modality to detect reperfusion for recanalization therapy. Read more about this study

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 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Symtomatic patients with unilateral severe internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis.

Who may be able to join

  • informed patient's consent for ICA stenting or endarterectomy
  • lack of contraindications to MRI
  • Symptomatic, unilateral ICA stenosis 70-99%;irrelevant stenosis <50% of contralateral ICA
  • TIA or stroke - within 360 days

Who cannot join

  • Intracranial hemorrhage
  • Informed consent not obtained
  • Common exclusion for MRI such as patients with claustrophobia
  • Patients with poor imaging quality(Poor imaging quality mainly defined as the image cannot be applied to future analysis on account of severe motion artifacts appeared in conventional MRI and mistakes in the MRI process by accident factors which cannot to be applied to future analysis)
  • Bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion

About this study

Official title: Short- and Long-Term Hemodynamic Effects Revealed by Arterial Spin Labeling MRI of Carotid Endarterectomy and Carotid Artery Stenting

Carotid artery stenting(CAS) and endarterectomy(CEA) are both important treatment strategy for patients with ICA (internal carotid artery) stenosis. Three dimensional pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (pCASL) is a noninvasive perfusion imaging modality to detect reperfusion for recanalization therapy. And it provides information about absolute CBF (ml 100 g-1 tissue min-1) at the brain tissue level. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the series hemodynamic changes in patients who had conducted CAS or CEA by using 3D pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (pCASL) to explore the potential pattern of CBF alternation and thus to improve the prevention strategy for hyperperfusion syndrome.

Read the detailed description

Patients:

Patients with unilateral severe internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis of stroke eligible were enrolled who underwent CAS vs CEA.All patients underwent previous scan in 7 days before CAS and CEA and consecutive scan once per 24 hours after CAS and CEA.

Baseline characteristics of patients were recorded including age,gender, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes melitus, smoking, obesity, qualifying stroke event.

Protocols:

MRI scan protocols T2 weighted image,T1 weighted image,diffusion weighted image(DWI),fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR),arterial spin labeling(ASL) with Post labeling delay (PLD) of 2.0s,Territory ASL(TASL)(PLD=2.0s),3-dimensional Fast Spoiled Gradient Echo(3D-FSPGR).

Imaging evaluation:

  1. Pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (pCASL) with post labeling delay (PLD) of 2.0s evaluation of cerebral blood flow in target downstream territory.
  2. FLAIR hyperintensity vascular sign.
  3. Collateral pattern assessment by Territorial ASL(TASL) (PLD=2.0s).

Treatment strategy:

Patients were randomly treated by CEA(carotid endarterectomy) or CAS(carotid artery stenting).

Follow up:

Patients were followed up every 24 hours after treatment procedure, and would have a repeat MRI scan after 3 months, 6 months and 1 year.

What is being measured

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

  1. Ischemic Event

    The patients will be monitored whether they recured ischemic event including transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke confirmed by neurologist and diffusion-weighted image MRI.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Hyperperfusion Syndrome

    The patients will be monitored whether they experienced hyperperfusion syndrome.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stroke, run by Chinese PLA General Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 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 13 Jul 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 China. 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 Yina Lan, M.D. (+86 17326826301, 729992938@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Ischemic Event (time frame: Up to 1 year). 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 13 Jul 2017.
