About this trial
The study objective is to establish the safety and efficacy of endovascular adjunct stenting for patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy (MT) that are found to have residual stenosis (70-99%) following attempted clot retrieval with either aspiration catheters or stent retrievers, per device instructions for use and device labeling.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
18 to 80 years of age
Presenting with symptoms consistent with AIS
Imaging evidence of an anterior occlusion of the Internal Carotid Artery (ICA) or Middle Cerebral Artery Main Stem (MCA M1), or proximal M2 segment AND residual 70-99% stenosis of the index artery following attempted clot retrieval with either aspiration catheters or stent retrievers, per device instructions for use and device labeling
NIHSS ≥ 6
Disqualifiers

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Primary Efficacy Endpoint
• Utility weighted 90-day Modified Rankin Score (mRS)
Primary Safety Endpoint
Rate of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH: Parenchymal hematoma Type 2 (PH2) with ≥4 points NIHSS worsening) at 24 hours (-12/+16 hours) from randomization)
Secondary outcomes
Secondary Safety Endpoint
Any neurological deterioration with ≥4 points worsening on NIHSS before discharge and unrelated to sICH or sedation (In addition to the routine 24-hour CT/Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan, repeat neuroimaging is mandatory for any subsequent neurological deterioration at any time during hospitalization).
Secondary Safety Endpoint
Embolization into new territory (ENT)
Secondary Safety Endpoint
Distal embolization (DE)
Secondary Safety Endpoint
Major vessel injury (perforation, dissection)
Other outcomes
Secondary Efficacy Endpoints
Utility weighted one-year Modified Rankin Score (mRS)
Secondary Efficacy Endpoints
90-day and one-year mRS ordinal shift (mRS 5 and 6 combined)
Secondary Efficacy Endpoints
90-day and one-year dichotomized mRS 0-2 outcome
Secondary Efficacy Endpoints
90-day and one-year dichotomized mRS 0-3 outcome
