Early Antiplatelet for Minor Stroke Following Thrombolysis (EAST)

October 29, 2024 updated by: Hui-Sheng Chen, General Hospital of Shenyang Military Region

Early Antiplatelet for Minor Stroke Following Thrombolysis (EAST): a Prospective, Random, Double Blinded and Multi-center Study

The current guideline recommends to give antithrombotic treatment 24 hours after intravenous thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke. However, early neurological deterioration will occur in some patients due to no antithrombotic treatment, which is closely associated with poor outcome. The current trial aims to investigate the effectiveness and safety of early antithrombotic treatment after intravenous thrombolysis in minor stroke.

Study Overview

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.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

No

  • NIHSS ≤ 5 within 6 hours after the end of intravenous thrombolysis, and no bleeding transformation was found in head CT examination;
  • Premorbid mRS ≤ 1;
  • Signed informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

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
The proportion of excellent prognosis
Time Frame: Day 90
excellent prognosis is defined as modified Rankin Score (mRS) 0-1. The minimum and maximum values of mRS are 0 and 6, respectively; higher score mean a worse outcome
Day 90

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
The proportion of favorable prognosis
Time Frame: Day 90
Favorable prognosis is defined as modified Rankin Score (mRS) 0-2. The minimum and maximum values of mRS are 0 and 6, respectively; higher score mean a worse outcome.
Day 90
Distribution of modified Rankin Score (mRS)
Time Frame: Day 90
The minimum and maximum values of mRS are 0 and 6, respectively; higher score mean a worse outcome.
Day 90
Changes in National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS)
Time Frame: 24 hours, 48 hours, and 10 days
the minimum and maximum values of NIHSS are 0 and 42, respectively; higher NIHSS mean a worse outcome.
24 hours, 48 hours, and 10 days
Occurrence of early neurologyical deterioration (END)
Time Frame: 24 hours
END is defined as more than 2 point increase, but not result of cerebral hemorrhage, compared with baseline at 24 hours
24 hours
The incidence of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage
Time Frame: 36 hours
any evidence of bleeding on the head CT scan associated with clinically significant neurological deterioration (NIHSS score ≥4 points increase)
36 hours
The incidence of any intracerebral hemorrhage
Time Frame: 36 hours
the evidence of bleeding on the head CT or MRI scan
36 hours
The incidence of stroke recurrence and other vascular events
Time Frame: Day 90
Day 90
The death due to any cause
Time Frame: Day 90
Day 90
