About this trial

CAPTIVA-MRI is an observational multimodal MR imaging study that is ancillary to the CAPTIVA trial \[a 3-arm, double-blind Phase III trial conducted at approximately 115 StrokeNet sites randomizing patients with stroke attributed to 70-99% intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) to aspirin plus ticagrelor, clopidogrel, or rivaroxaban.\] The primary goal of this ancillary study is to determine if MRI biomarkers can potentially identify ICAS patients who fail best medical management. The CAPTIVA-MRI study leverages the CAPTIVA trial design and implementation to capture information that will inform and facilitate the next generation of ICAS trials and the management of patients with ICAS.

Eligibility criteria

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Establish ICAS hemodynamic and plaque MRI biomarkers as reliable predictors of recurrent ischemic stroke in the vascular territory of the index stroke.

Recurrent ischemic stroke, defined as symptomatic infarct in the vascular territory of the index stroke artery. This outcome is centrally adjudicated in CAPTIVA using an American Heart Association definition of ischemic stroke
