Percutaneous Recanalization in Ischemic Stroke Management (PRIISM): A Feasibility Clinical Study (PRIISM)

June 19, 2012 updated by: MindFrame, Inc.

A Feasibility Trial to Evaluate the MindFrame System in the Recanalization of Occluded Vessels in Patients Experiencing an Ischemic Stroke

The primary study objective is to assess the feasibility of using the MindFrame System to safely and effectively restore blood flow in a thrombotic neurovascular occlusion in patients experiencing an ischemic stroke.

Detailed Description

The objective of PRIISM is to assess the feasibility of using the MindFrame System to safely and effectively restore blood flow in a thrombotic neurovascular occlusion in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Safety will be assessed by the device-related serious event rate as it compares to other similar therapies. The events include but are not limited to symptomatic hemorrhage, vessel dissection, embolization and overall morbidity and mortality. Target vessels include the basilar, internal carotid and middle cerebral (M1 and M2 segments) arteries.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Technical Device Success by as Assessed by the Percentage of Participants Which Established at Least TIMI 2 Flow Upon Deployment of the System Across the Occlusion and Within 30 Minutes of Placing the Guide Catheter.
Time Frame: Immediately postprocedure

TIMI Flow is a perfusion scoring system from 0-3 referring to levels of blood flow assessed during reperfusion procedures:

TIMI 0 flow (no perfusion) TIMI 1 flow (penetration without perfusion) TIMI 2 flow (partial reperfusion) TIMI 3 flow (complete perfusion) is normal flow

Immediately postprocedure
Procedural Success as Determined by the Overal Percentage of Patients Who Achieve TIMI Grade 2/3 Flow, With or Without the Use of Adjuvant Therapy, in All Treatable Vessels as Confirmed by the Final Post Treatment Angiogram.
Time Frame: Immediately postprocedure

TIMI Flow is a scoring system from 0-3 referring to levels of blood flow assessed during percutaneous coronary angioplasty:

TIMI 0 flow (no perfusion) TIMI 1 flow (penetration without perfusion) TIMI 2 flow (partial reperfusion) TIMI 3 flow (complete perfusion) is normal flow

Immediately postprocedure
Clinical Success
Time Frame: 90 days postprocedure
Clinical Success as determined by achievment of a Modified Rankin Scale score of 0-2 at 90 days postprocedure. The modified Rankin Scale is a measure of a patient's level of functional independence with 0=normal and 6-death. Patients with a score of 0-2 are considered functionally independent.
90 days postprocedure

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Device-related Serious Adverse Events
Time Frame: Treatment to 90 days postprocedure
Evaluation of the safety of using the MindFrame System based on device-related serious adverse event(s). Device-related serious adverse events are defined as vessel perforation, intramural arterial dissection, device-related symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, and significant embolization in a previously uninvolved arterial territory.
Treatment to 90 days postprocedure
