Study summary

In the acute posterior circulation strokes, the vertebrobasilar occlusions frequently related to worse outcomes than the anterior ones. However, few studies mentioned the benefit and safety of the emergent stenting in the successful recanalization at these complex occlusions. The investigators investigated whether the improvement of clinical outcome was achieved in postprocedural 3-month.

Read the detailed description

Acute ischemic stroke in posterior circulation account for nearly 20 - 25%, in which large vessel occlusions (LVOs) occur 0.8% - 5.7%. Although mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has recently been the gold standard in LVOs treatment, the futile recanalization (defined as unfavorable outcome despite early successful recanalization of target artery) rate was showed in posterior circulation higher than in anterior one. Multiple randomized controlled trials (BEST, BASICS, BAOCHE, ATTENTION) have recently reported the benefit of endovascular treatment better than of standard medical treatment for acute vertebrobasilar occlusions stroke. Besides, up to 36% LVOs with underlying intracranial stenosis and 64% with tandem lesions occured in the acute vertebrobasilar stroke. This was a reason why emergent stenting was considered to support the successful recanalization in the setting of failure of mechanical thrombectomy. Moreover, the successful recanalization is one of the independent predictors of good outcomes. However, the use of the loading dose dual antiplatelet therapy and peri-procedural complications made the safety of emergent stenting remain uncertain. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether the impact of emergent stenting on the improved clinical outcome in vertebrobasilar occlusions.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. The favorable 3-month outcome rate

    The favorable 3-month outcome rate was accessed by modified Rankin Score (mRS), which comprised of included good (mRS 0 - ≤ 2) and fair (mRS 3).

    Time frame: 3 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. The symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage rate

    The symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage was defined as patient's intracerebral hemorrhage with postprocedural mRS ≥ 5 and there were no other evident causes for the increased mRS

    Time frame: 24 hours after emergent stenting

ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Dec 2020 to primary completion in Jan 2024, 37 months.

Of 572 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Ischemic Stroke, half reached primary completion within 28 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 14 and three quarters within 48. This study's 37 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 653 studies reached it within 27 months; a quarter within 14 and three quarters within 48.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 4, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
