About this study
Official title: Efficacy and Safety of the Adacolumn® Granulocyte and Monocyte/Macrophage Apheresis Device for Cerebral Edema After Acute Anterior Circulation Occlusive Cerebral Infarction: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Clinical Trial
The primary objective is to investigate whether treatment with Adacolumn can ameliorate the progression of cerebral edema within 72 hours in patients with anterior circulation ischemic stroke. The secondary objective is to explore if Adacolumn could improve acute neurologic status, functional outcomes, treatment requirements and safety in patients with anterior circulation ischemic stroke.
Read the detailed description
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled trial evaluating Adacolumn therapy in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to anterior circulation large-artery occlusion presenting within 24 hours of stroke onset. Eligible patients who meet all inclusion and no exclusion criteria will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the Adacolumn group or the control group, with 5 patients enrolled in each arm (total n=10).
All participants will receive guideline-based standard reperfusion therapy (endovascular thrombectomy and/or intravenous thrombolysis, as appropriate) together with standard medical management. In the Adacolumn group, each patient will undergo four scheduled Adacolumn treatment sessions in addition to standard reperfusion and medical therapy. Patients in the control group will receive standard reperfusion therapy and standard medical treatment alone. Each participant will be followed for 90 days after enrollment.
The objective of the trial is to evaluate the effect of Adacolumn therapy on cerebral edema in patients with anterior circulation large-artery occlusion stroke. The primary endpoint is the change in net water uptake (NWU) measured on CT at 72-78 hours post reperfusion, compared to the immediate post-reperfusion CT.
