New treatment option for Stroke
Official title Early Aggressive Strategy for Treatment of Lipid-Lowering in Acute Ischemic Stroke Delivered With Endovascular Therapy for Large Artery Occlusion
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07002476
What this study is testing
What is guideline-recommended SoC?
guideline-recommended SoC is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for stroke.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- A prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled study to assess the effects of early intensive lipid-lowering initiated before endovascular treatment setting on (i) functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke between preoperative intensive lipid-lowering therapy with PCSK9 inhibitor (PCSK9i) and guideline-recommended standard of care (SoC)(ii) safety in these patients.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
