NCT03804060

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine the feasibility and safety of achieving rapid hypothermia with the Proteus Intravascular Temperature Management (IVTM) system for patients experiencing acute ischemic stroke due to a large vessel occlusion.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Percentage of Test Arm patients achieving target temperature

    Percentage of Test Arm patients achieving target temperature \< 34 ºC within 1 hour of arterial puncture for thrombectomy

    1 hour after thrombectomy

  • Mean door-to-Recanalization time

    door-to-Recanalization time

    perioperative

  • Rate of hemorrhagic conversion in each arm within 36 hours of Recanalization

    Rate of hemorrhagic conversion

    36 hours

Study Arms (2)

Cooling + Recanalization

EXPERIMENTAL

The subjects will be considered to be enrolled in the Test Arm of the trial when all inclusion and exclusion criteria have been met, the informed consent form has been signed, and randomization to the Test Arm of the trial to allow cooling with the Thermogard XP3 IVTM System before and after recanalization.

Device: Thermogard XP3

Recanalization only

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The subjects will be considered to be enrolled in the Control Arm of the trial when all inclusion and exclusion criteria have been met, the informed consent form has been signed, and randomization to the Control Arm of the trial to allow recanalization only.

Procedure: Recanalization only

Interventions

Cooling with the ZOLL® Circulation catheter and the ZOLL® Intravascular Temperature Management system to initiate and maintain hypothermia for 6 hours as an adjunct to endovascular Recanalization.

Cooling + Recanalization

Standard of Care for recanalization

Recanalization only

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age ≥18 and ≤85;
  • Signs and symptoms consistent with an acute ischemic stroke with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (M1 MCA, carotid-terminus occlusion, Tandem occlusion allowed (Extracranial ICA+carotid T or M1 MCA)) as determined by CT imaging; (i.e., hyperdense sign on non-contrast CT or CT angiogram);
  • Ability to perform arterial puncture within 24 hours from symptom onset or LKN;
  • ASPECTS score of 6-10 on non-contrast CT of the brain if under 80 years; ASPECTS 9-10 if age 80-85;
  • For transfer patients with anticipated arterial puncture greater than 6 hours from symptom onset or LKN, qualifying imaging must be performed within 2 hours prior to enrolling hospital arrival; or with a newly obtained non-contrast CT scan if this time is exceeded
  • Candidate for endovascular thrombectomy therapy in accordance with best practices per AHA standard stroke guidelines meeting all labeling requirements for EVT in the trial;
  • No contraindications to general anesthesia, conscious sedation or allergies to any components associated with the anticipated diagnostic or treatment procedures that cannot be treated;
  • A pre-stroke modified Rankin Score (mRS) of 0 or 1 (Appendix 4);
  • Baseline CT scan shows no hemorrhage;
  • NIHSS greater than or equal to 8 (Appendix 3);
  • Patient is capable of complying with study procedures and agrees to complete all required study procedures, study visits and associated activities;
  • Legally authorized representative must be able to understand and give written informed consent. Patient will assent if capable. Patient may be re-consented once it is established that there is no memory loss or cognitive impairment.

  • Legally authorized representative must be able to understand and give written informed consent. Patient will assent if capable. Patient may be re-consented once it is established that there is no memory loss or cognitive impairment.
  • Patient arrives to the enrolling hospital intubated
  • Female patients of childbearing potential who are known to be or may be pregnant;
  • The patient has a known history of bleeding diathesis, coagulopathy, cryoglobulinemia, sickle cell anemia, will refuse blood transfusions or contraindication to heparin; history of genetically confirmed hypercoagulable syndrome
