Stroke Clinical Trial - Troponin Elevation in Acute Ischemic Stroke

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of the prospective observational trial TRELAS (TRoponin ELevation in Acute ischemic Stroke) is to elucidate the underlying pathomechanism of cTnT elevation in acute ischemic stroke. Consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke admitted to the Department of Neurology Campus Benjamin Franklin of the university hospital Charité will be screened for cTnT elevations suggestive of myocardial infarction (>0,05 µg/l). Patients with increased troponin will undergo diagnostic coronary angiography within 72 hours. Diagnostic findings of coronary angiographies taken out in age- and gender-matched patients presenting with NSTE-ACS (Non-ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome) to the Division of Cardiology will serve as a control. The primary endpoint of the study will be the occurrence of culprit lesions indicating focal cardiac damage on the basis of an acute CAD.

Clinical Trial Description

The primary objective of the prospective observational trial TRELAS (TRoponin ELevation in Acute ischemic Stroke) is to elucidate the underlying pathomechanism of cTnT elevation in acute ischemic stroke in order to give guidance for clinical practise. All consecutive patients with acute MRI- or CT-confirmed ischemic stroke admitting within 72 hours after symptom onset to the Department of Neurology Campus Benjamin Franklin of the university hospital of the Charité will be screened for cTnT elevations suggestive of myocardial infarction (>0,05 µg/l) on admission and day 2. Patients with increased troponin will undergo diagnostic coronary angiography within 72 hours. Diagnostic findings of coronary angiographies taken out in age- and gender-matched patients presenting with NSTE-ACS (Non-ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome) to the Division of Cardiology will serve as a control. The primary endpoint of the study will be the occurrence of angiographic culprit lesions indicating focal cardiac damage on the basis of an acute CAD. Secondary endpoints will be the localisation of stroke in the cerebral imaging and ventriculographic findings of wall motion abnormalities suggestive of neurally mediated global cardiac dysfunction. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
