NCT02841098

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether carotid surgery combined with optimal medical therapy improves long-term survival free of ipsilateral stroke in patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis at higher-than-average risk of ipsilateral stroke when compared with optimal medical therapy alone.

Eligibility Criteria

Age50 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age 50 years or over
  • No ipsilateral stroke or TIA within 180 days of randomization
  • Atherosclerotic carotid stenosis between 70 and 99% (NASCET method)
  • At least one of the following markers of ipsilateral stroke risk:
  • Silent brain infarction on MRI, DWi, consistent with embolism from or hemodynamic consequences of the qualifyiing stenosis
  • History of contralateral TIA or ischemic stroke due to atherosclerotic carotid disease
  • Predominantly echolucent plaque on ultrasound
  • Rapid (within 1 year) carotid stenosis progresion
  • TCD-detected microembolic signals
  • Impairment of TCD-measured cerebral vasomotor reserve
  • Intraplaque haemorrhage on magnetic resonance imaging
  • Rapid and severe stenosis progression
  • Patient is able and willing to give informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Previous revascularization procedure in the artery to be randomised
  • Patients not suitable for endarterectomy due to anatomical factors
  • Carotid stenosis caused by non-atherosclerotic disease e.g. neck radiotherapy or fibromuscular disease
  • Patients who have had contralateral carotid artery or vertebral artery or intracranial artery revascularisation within 6 weeks prior to randomisation
  • Patients with planned revascularisation of the contralateral carotid artery or a vertebral artery or an intracranial artery within 6 weeks after randomisation or the date of CEA
  • Patients who have had coronary artery bypass grafting within 3 months prior to randomisation or other major surgery within 6 weeks prior to randomisation
  • Patients with planned coronary artery bypass grafting or other major surgery within 6 weeks after CEA of the artery considered for treatment in the trial
  • Patients with pre-existing disability (modified Rankin score greater than 2)
  • Patients who have a low 5-year life expectancy (see appendix for definition)
  • Patients intolerant or allergic to all of the medications available for OMT
  • Patients in clinical trials of investigational medicinal products or who have been in clinical trials within the last 4 months will not be enrolled unless otherwise agreed
  • Patients who are known to be pregnant
  • Patients unwilling or unable to participate in follow-up
