About this study

Official title: A Prospective Observational Cohort Study of Predictive Biomarkers Related With Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease

The goal of this single-center prospective observational study is to identify and evaluate new biomarkers for ischemic cerebrovascular disease (ICVD) to aid in early diagnosis, individualized treatment planning, and prognosis prediction in affected patients. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Can specific biomarkers help in identifying high-risk individuals before disease onset? Can these biomarkers predict disease progression and treatment response? Researchers will compare patients diagnosed with ICVD and healthy controls from a medical check-up center to assess differences in biomarker expression and their clinical significance.

Participants will:

Provide blood, cerebrospinal fluid, urine, and stool samples for biomarker analysis.

Undergo clinical imaging (CT, MRI, PET-CT) and functional assessments. Be followed up at 3, 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 months for clinical outcomes and biomarker changes.

This study aims to develop a comprehensive biomarker-based prediction model to enhance the diagnosis and management of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. all-cause mortality

    Death during the follow-up in every single reason

    Measured: 10 years

  2. Stroke of any kind

    Brain CT or MRI scans will be used to measure whether there is any kind of stroke, including TIA, ischemic stroke, and hemorrhage

    Measured: 10 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Rehospitalization

    The rehospitalized times of any circumstances except for admission to hospital only for examination per year will be used to measure the situation

    Measured: 10 years

  2. National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS score)

    The minimum value is 0, and maximum value is 42, and higher scores mean a worse outcome.

    Measured: 10 years

  3. modified Ranking score (mRS)

    The minimum value is 0, and maximum value is 6, and higher scores mean a worse outcome.

    Measured: 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ischemic Stroke and Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease, run by Tongji Hospital at 2 sites 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 2 inclusion and 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jul 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Luo-Qi Zhou (86-27-83663337, zhouluoqi@tjh.tjmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

all-cause mortality (time frame: 10 years). 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 28 Jul 2026.
