An interventional study of Supernova revascularization device in Ischemic Stroke, Stroke and Cerebrovascular Disorders, sponsored by Gravity Medical Technology, INC. Completed at 11 sites in 3 countries. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 85 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-05-22.

The study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Supernova stent retriever device, developed by Gravity Medical Technology, for treating acute ischemic stroke. The device is used to remove blood clots and restore blood flow to the brain .
2,612 studies on the registry are indexed under Ischemic Stroke; 971 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 55 is below the median of 120 across 1,776 interventional studies indexed under Ischemic Stroke.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.
For strokes in the anterior circulation, the following imaging criteria should also be met:
Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
The study doctor’s estimate of how long someone is likely to live. Criteria use it so that people can stay in the study long enough for it to answer its question.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
Blood tests of how long blood takes to clot. The INR is the prothrombin time (PT) put on a common scale; about 1 is usual for someone not taking a blood thinner.
Criteria often make an exception for people on a blood thinner such as warfarin, whose INR is raised on purpose.
Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.
GFR (glomerular filtration rate) is how much blood the kidneys filter each minute. It is usually estimated from a blood test — eGFR, by formulas such as CKD-EPI or MDRD — and some studies ask for it to be measured directly instead. Usually given in mL/min/1.73 m².
Check the method, the units and the minimum the study states. A value of 90 or above is in the normal-or-high range, but kidney damage can show in other tests too.
Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.

Mechanical thrombectomy with Supernova Stent Retriever
Device: Supernova revascularization device
Mechanical Thrombectomy
Successful reperfusion
Rate of successful reperfusion, defined as modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia (mTICI) grade of 2b or higher Grade 0: No reperfusion Grade 3: Complete reperfusion
Time frame: Day 0 (end of procedure)
Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage
Safety (Rate of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) as measured by the SITS-MOST criteria) The SITS-MOST definition of SICH is a local or remote type II parenchymal haemorrhage within 22 to 36 hours after treatment (or sooner) associated with a ≥ fourpoint deterioration on the NIHSS score from baseline or from the lowest score from baseline to 24 hours, or leading to death.

All-cause mortality
Safety (All-cause mortality)
Time frame: All-cause mortality measured at 90 (±14) days
Percentage of participants with a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of ≤2
Effectiveness (The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. The scale runs from 0-6 with "0" being perfect health without symptoms to "6" being death. Score 0: No symptoms Score 1: No significant disability. Able to carry out all usual activities, despite some symptoms. Score 2: Slight disability. Able to look after own affairs without assistance, but unable to carry out all previous activities. Score 3: Moderate disability. Requires some help, but able to walk unassisted. Score 4: Moderately severe disability. Unable to attend to own bodily needs without assistance, and unable to walk unassisted. Score 5: Severe disability. Requires constant nursing care and attention, bedridden, incontinent. Score 6: Dead)
Time frame: 90 (±14) days post-treatment
Successful Reperfusion at First Pass
Effectiveness (Successful reperfusion defined as mTICI 2b or better at first pass)
Time frame: Assessed at first pass of the intervention during the procedure
Asymptomatic Intracranial Hemorrhage
Safety (Incidence of any asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhage post-procedure)
Time frame: Day 1 (within 24 hours (18-36 hours) of the procedure)
Neurological Deterioration
Safety (defined as a ≥4-point increase in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score)
Time frame: Day 1 (within 24 hours (18-36 hours) of the procedure)
