MR-based Stroke Mechanism and Future Risk Score (MR-STARS)

August 26, 2021 updated by: Xin Lou, Chinese PLA General Hospital
To explore prediction model for outcome of patients with acute ischemic stroke using multimodal Magnetic Resonance(MR) imaging was a multicenter prospective observational study supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China. Imaging evaluation of hemodynamic status and antegrade flow were assessed. Patients were followed up to record radiological and clinical outcome. The study recruited patients from 11 centers located in 10 provinces or province-level municipalities across the northeast to the southeast of China mainland.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Patients:

Patients with cerebral ischemia sympton of onset in 24 hours were included. Baseline materials, NIH stroke scale score, modified Rankin Scale at admission, stroke causes, time from sympton onset to enrollment were recorded.

Imaging scan were conducted at admission, within 7 days after admission.

Imaging protocols:

MRI scan protocols: T2 weighted image, T1 weighted image, Diffusion weighted image(DWI), fluid-attenuated inversion recovery(FLAIR), Perfusion weighted image(PWI), arterial spin labeling(ASL) , susceptibility-weighted imaging(SWI).

Contrast agent:

Omniscan 2ml/kg, Inject rate：3ml/s

Digital subtraction angiography(DSA) protocols:

Selective angiography and imaging phase from arterial phase to late venous phase.

Imaging evaluation:

Antegrade flow assessment from ASL Cerebral blood flow(CBF) map. Collateral flow assessment from ASL CBF map, ASL subtraction CBF map, PWI postprocessing map, FLAIR hyperintensity vascular sign.

Initial infarct volume measurement form DWI. Final infarct volume measurement from FLAIR. DWI-ASPECTS. Stroke lesions pattern assessment identified on DWI. DSA antegrade and collateral grade using modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction(TICI) scale and The American Society of Interventional and Therapeutic Neuroradiology (ASITN) collateral grading system.

Treatment:

Intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator(rtPA), endovascular therapy and conventional treatment including neuro protection, ante-platelet and statin.

Follow up:

within Seven days and a month after imaging follow up and clinical stroke event and modified Rankin Scale(mRS) record in 1 year.

Note:

The original trial from 2015 to 2018 recruited patients with acute and subacute ischemic stroke, and the trial plan was changed to recruit patients with acute cerebral ischemia sympton of onset within 24 h.The study has been upgraded from a single-center study to a multi-center study since 2018.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
modified Rankin Score
Time Frame: Three months
Modified Rankin Score of patients with acute stroke after 3 months will be followed up for neurological outcome assessment. mRS < 2 is defined as favorable
Three months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Final infarct volume
