Study summary

This observational study aims to investigate the impact of GGCX gene mutations and GGCX levels on stroke prognosis in patients with ischemic stroke, as well as their correlation. The main issues are:

What is the relationship and potential mechanism between GGCX gene mutations and their expression levels and the composite prognosis of recurrence, death, and bleeding events in patients with ischemic stroke? Collect blood samples from enrolled ischemic stroke patients for genetic testing, and conduct follow-up visits at 3, 6, and 12 months after discharge to evaluate clinical prognosis outcomes. This will answer questions about the relationship and mechanism between GGCX gene and patient prognosis.

Inclusion criteria

(1) Inclusion Criteria for Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients:

  1. Aged between 18 and 85 years.
  2. Diagnosed with ischemic stroke (in accordance with the "Chinese Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke 2023," including TOAST etiological/pathogenic subtypes: large-artery atherosclerosis (LAA), cardioembolism (CE), small-artery occlusion (SAO), stroke of other determined etiology (SOE), and stroke of undetermined etiology (SUE)).
  3. Acute onset, with symptoms occurring within 72 hours and being the first episode.
  4. Voluntary participation with signed .

(2) Inclusion Criteria for Healthy Controls: 1) Healthy control population matched for age, gender, and risk factors (including personal and family history).

Exclusion criteria

(1) Exclusion Criteria for Healthy Controls:

  1. Patients with cerebrovascular diseases occurring within 72 hours.
  2. Pregnant or lactating patients.

(2) Exclusion Criteria for Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients:

  1. Other types of stroke, including hemorrhagic stroke, mixed stroke, and tumor-related stroke patients.
  2. Patients with coagulation disorders or other hematologic diseases.
  3. Patients with severe cardiovascular, pulmonary, or hepatic diseases.
  4. Renal dysfunction.
  5. Cancer patients.
  6. Patients with active gastric ulcers or gastric bleeding.
  7. Pregnant or lactating patients.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

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.

Informed consent

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.

Groups and cohorts

  • Acute Ischemic Stroke Group

    These subjects were acute ischemic stroke patients who had been followed up for 3-12 months after discharge.

    Combination Product: Usually, all enrolled patients with acute ischemic stroke will receive routine medication and/or surgical treatment according to clinical diagnosis and treatment protocols.

Interventions

  • Combination productUsually, all enrolled patients with acute ischemic stroke will receive routine medication and/or surgical treatment according to clinical diagnosis and treatment protocols.

    The conventional drug therapy includes anticoagulant, antiplatelet, antihypertensive and other drugs. The surgical therapy includes AIS intravenous thrombolysis or endovascular therapy.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Evaluate the recurrence, death, and bleeding events of stroke in the research subjects

    Including recurrent ischemic stroke events; Death events include hemorrhagic death, vascular death, and acute myocardial infarction events; Intracranial or other bleeding events (refer to the International Classification of Bleeding Events ICD-10 code).

    Time frame: Follow up will be conducted at 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after the patient's discharge, and the main outcome events mentioned above will be evaluated.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
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

Start is estimated for Jan 2026; primary completion for Aug 2026, 7 months later.

Of 394 non-industry observational studies under Ischemic Stroke, half reached primary completion within 56 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 25 and three quarters within 140. This study's planned 7 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 436 studies reached it within 53 months; a quarter within 24 and three quarters within 127.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

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 Dec 8, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
