Filter by:The acute vertebrobasilar occlusion associated with the poor prognosis, particularly tandem occlusion. However, few data on the efficacy of the endovascular therapy was indicated in this occlusion. The investigators reported whether the additional rescue extracranial stenting improved clinical outcome by modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score within 3 months after the procedure
To compare the incidence of the composite endpoints of non-fatal ischaemic stroke, transient ischaemia (TIA) and all-cause mortality at 12-month follow-up after implantation of Bridge for the treatment of symptomatic vertebral artery stenosis in subjects who had been taking different durations of dual-antiplatelet therapy (3 vs 6 months) and ticagrelor monotherapy.
Aprospective, multicentre, single-arm clinical trial in which approximately 36 subjects would be enrolled using the Bridge 4.5 mm and 5.0 mm stent in accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria in this protocol. The success rate of immediate post-procedure stent target lesion treatment was recorded for all subjects, and the incidence of in-stent restenosis (≥50% stenosis) was assessed by DSA imaging follow-up at 6 months (±30 days) post-procedure. The subjects were also followed up at 30 days (±7 days), 6 months (±30 days), and 12 months (±60 days) after stent implantation to assess safety events during the follow-up period. .
In the acute posterior circulation strokes, the vertebrobasilar occlusions frequently related to worse outcomes than the anterior ones. However, few studies mentioned the benefit and safety of the emergent stenting in the successful recanalization at these complex occlusions. The investigators investigated whether the improvement of clinical outcome was achieved in postprocedural 3-month.
Posterior circulation stroke accounts for 20% of all ischemic stroke. Approximately one quarter of posterior circulation strokes are due to stenosis in the vertebral artery and basilar artery. Two previous randomized controlled trials focusing on vertebral artery stenting, the Vertebral Artery Stenting Trial (VAST) and the Vertebral Artery Ischaemia Stenting Trial (VIST) were underpowered because they failed to reach target recruitment, and both the trials found no difference in risk of the primary outcome between the stenting group and medical group. The drug-eluting stenting versus medical therapy alone for patients with extracranial vertebral artery stenosis (VISTA) trial, is a government-funded, prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial. It will recruit patients with 3 months stroke or TIA caused by 70-99% stenosis of extracranial vertebral artery (V1-2 segments). Only high-volume center with a proven track record will enroll patients. Patients will be randomized (1:1) to best medical treatment alone or medical treatment plus stenting. Primary outcome is a composite of any fatal or non-fatal stroke within 30 days after randomization, or ischemic stroke in the territory of the target artery beyond 30 days to 1 year. The VISTA trial will be conducted in 30 sites in China and aims to have a sample size of 472 subjects (stenting, 236; medical treatment, 236). Recruitment is expected to be finished by Sep, 2025. Patients will be followed for 1 year at first stage. Long-term follow-ups till 3 years or longer is also preplanned. The first stage of the trial is scheduled to complete in 2027.
This is a prospective, multi-center, open-access, single-arm trial to observe the real-world clinical efficacy of drug-eluting vertebral artery stenting system treatment for Atherosclerotic Vertebral Arteries Stenosis. Patients will be followed at 30 days, 6, and 12 months post-procedure and annually for 1 year within 3 years.
Isolated vertebral artery occlusions (VAO) account for approximately one third of posterior circulation occlusions, but have been given the least attention among posterior circulation strokes. If the two recent ATTENTION and BAOCHE randomized clinical trials have proven the superiority of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in basilar artery occlusions, data on the effectiveness and harm of acute revascularization treatment on isolated VAO is scarce. We aim to investigate the impact of acute recanalisation treatments in acute ischemic stroke patients with isolated VAO. In the absence of RCT, observational data with appropriate statistical methods may give indications on benefits and harms of treating neglected stroke situations like acute vertebral occlusion. Results may also lay the basis for prospective studies, such as randomized clinical trials.
Clinical and radiological evaluation including transcranial Doppler of vertebral arteries of patients with vertebrobasilar insufficiency attending assiut university hospital and assessment of possible risk factors that may lead to vertebrobasilar insufficiency.
The results of this study will serve as a starting point for future trials concentrating on the effectiveness and clinical outcomes of the procedures performed in an office based angiosuite. Additionally, other studies could compare clinical outcomes between procedures performed in an office based angiosuite and other settings.
