Trial summary

In ischemic stroke, the recanalization rate after intravenous thrombolysis has been estimated to be less than 50% in patients with proximal intracranial artery occlusion; this rate is greater than 80% after endovascular thrombectomy. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Interest of Thromboelastometry as a Biomarker of Post-thrombolysis or Post-thrombectemia Revascularization Success in Ischemic Stroke: a Prospective, Single-center, Observational Study in an Emergency Department

In ischemic stroke, the recanalization rate after intravenous thrombolysis has been estimated to be less than 50% in patients with proximal intracranial artery occlusion; this rate is greater than 80% after endovascular thrombectomy. Thromboelastometry is a method of analysis of coagulation and fibrinolysis in whole blood. The main objective of this study is to evaluate whether the parameters obtained by thromboelastometry are predictive of revascularization at arteriography during mechanical thrombectomy, after treatment with rt-PA thrombolysis.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center prospective observational study at the University Hospital of Caen. Any patient presenting a neurological deficit of sudden onset, compatible with a ischemic stroke diagnosed on brain imaging and eligible for thrombolysis by rtPA and/or a endovascular thrombectomy procedure will be included. Clot formation kinetics will be assessed by thromboelastometry (ROTEM® and/or QUANTRA®) to determine the predictive parameters of revascularization. The parameters of clot formation and lysis as well as revascularization according to thrombo-inflammation processes will be studied.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • thromboelastometry testOther

    This study does not modify the usual care of the patient. Only 5 citrated tubes (maximum 15 mL of blood) are collected in addition to the initial emergency department sample (routine care). The patient's care follows the classic thrombolysis alert pathway. There is no additional complementary examination or additional neurological evaluation. Clot formation kinetics will be evaluated by thromboelastometry to determine the predictive parameters of revascularization. Clot formation and lysis parameters as well as revascularization according to thrombo-inflammation processes will be studied.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prediction of the success of the revascularization procedure by thromboelastometry

    All the parameters of clot formation and lysis will be studied, in particular the area under the curve (AUC)

    Measured: One hour after the blood test

  2. Does clot firmness could predict the success of the revascularization

    clot firmness (MCF in millimeter, mm)

    Measured: One hour after the blood test

  3. Prediction of the success of the revascularization procedure by thromboelastometry

    clot lysis time (seconde).

    Measured: One hour after the blood test

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Thomboelastometry and prediction of thrombolysis + thrombectomy efficacy

    effectiveness of thrombectomy will be assessed per-arteriogram by the TICI score (Grade 0: no perfusion Grade 1: penetration with minimal perfusion Grade 2: partial perfusion Grade 2A: only partial filling (less than two-thirds) of the entire vascular territory is visualized Grade 2B: complete filling of all of the expected vascular territory is visualized but the filling is slower than normal Grade 3: complete perfusion)

    Measured: during thrombectomy procedure

  2. Thomboelastometry and prediction of thrombectomy efficacy

    number of passes required for successful recanalization thrombolysis

    Measured: immediatly after thrombectomy procedure

  3. Thomboelastometry and prediction of thrombectomy efficacy

    puncture to recanalization (minute)

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 3 years

  4. Thomboelastometry and prediction of success of recanalization by thrombectomy alone

    Effectiveness of thrombectomy will be assessed by the TICI score ((Grade 0: no perfusion Grade 1: penetration with minimal perfusion Grade 2: partial perfusion Grade 2A: only partial filling (less than two-thirds) of the entire vascular territory is visualized Grade 2B: complete filling of all of the expected vascular territory is visualized but the filling is slower than normal Grade 3: complete perfusion)

    Measured: just at the end of thrombectomy procedure

  5. Prediction of success of thrombolysis

    presence or absence of a clot on MRI or angioscan

    Measured: "Day 1", "Day 3" after thrombolysis

  6. Thomboelastometry and prediction of neurological outcome

    The use of the NIHSS score will allow the neurological evaluation of the patient (at admission and 24h/72h after the recanalization attempt). Neurological outcome, as assessed by the NIHSS score, is considered favorable if the NIHSS score at 24h/72h post-recanalization is equal to 0 or 1 or if there is an improvement in the NIHSS score of at least four points between the admission score and the score at 24h/72h post-recanalization.

    Measured: "D0", "Day 1", "Day 3" after revascularization

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cerebrovascular Stroke and Thrombolytic Therapy, run by University Hospital, Caen at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 2 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 3 May 2021. 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 France. 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 Clémence h Tomadessos (+33231065386 ext. +33231065386, tomadesso-c@chu-caen.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prediction of the success of the revascularization procedure by thromboelastometry (time frame: One hour after the blood test). 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?
