About this trial
an investigator initiated, prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint trial (PROBE)
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
≥18 years.
Symptoms onset or Time last known well ≤ 24 h from randomization.
Acute ischemic stroke due to an occlusion of the intracranial internal carotid artery, M1 or proximal M2 segment of the middle cerebral artery confirmed by CTA or MRA.
NCCT or diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) demonstrating ASPECTS ≤ 2 or infarct core volume (defined as rCBF <30% on CTP) ≥ 100 mL.
Disqualifiers
Evidence of intracranial hemorrhage on CT/MRI, including intraparenchymal hemorrhage, intraventricular hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, or subdural/epidural hemorrhage.
Cerebral midline shift or herniation, or other ventricular mass effect with midline shift as confirmed on CT/MRI.
Bilateral anterior circulation or acute multi-vessel occlusion involving both anterior and posterior circulation, confirmed by CTA or MRA.
Blood pressure >185/110 mmHg and is refractory to medicine.
Trial design
Parallel
Treatments tested in this trial
Patients assigned to the EVT group should undergo EVT as soon as possible, followed by BMM according to the current EVT guidelines.
Procedure/SurgeryEVT should be performed as soon as possible in patients randomized to the EVT group. Investigators and clinicians should make every effort to minimize delays related to pre-procedural preparation, with a target interval of no more than 60 minutes from randomization to arterial puncture. EVT in the EVT group can be performed with any thrombectomy device (NMPA approved) usually used at study site.
The medical group receives BMM alone. EVT is not performed in the medical group.
DrugThe administration of medications is at the treating physician's discretion (for example intravenous fibrinolysis, anticoagulants or antiplatelet) according to current AIS management guidelines but may NOT include any intra-arterial therapies.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
The primary efficacy endpoint is the mRS score at 90 days after randomization.
Secondary outcomes

Proportion of mRS 0-2 at 90 days and 180 days after randomization.
Proportion of mRS 0-3 at 90 days and 180 days after randomization.
Proportion of early neurological improvement
Other outcomes
Incidence of all-cause mortality within 90 days after randomization.
Incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH, per Heidelberg Bleeding Classification) at 24±12 hours from onset.
Incidence of early neurological deterioration
Procedure- or device-related complications
