Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - Endovascular Thrombectomy
Other interventions - Medical Management

Experimental: Endovascular Thrombectomy plus Medical Management -

Active comparator: Medical Management -


Treatment: Devices: Endovascular Thrombectomy
Patients randomized to endovascular thrombectomy arm will receive thrombectomy plus medical management. They will be treated with thrombectomy devices (stent-retrievers or aspiration devices) currently cleared by the FDA for thrombus removal in patients experiencing an acute stroke within 24 hours of symptom onset. The devices which will be used are FDA-approved stent retrievers: the Trevo Retriever, the Solitaire Revascularization Device, EmboTrap Revascularization Device and Tigertriever Revascularization Device; and/or the aspiration devices approved by the FDA (e.g. MicroVention SOFIA Catheter, and the Penumbra thrombectomy system). The choice of thrombectomy method, primary approach/technique, whether primary aspiration or primary stent-retriever with or without aspiration, will be left up to the interventionalist, with any of the FDA-approved devices approved in the study protocol or a combination of them.

Other interventions: Medical Management
Patients will receive standard AHA guideline-directed medical therapy, which will include IV thrombolytic therapy available for use according to practice guidelines in patients presenting within the first 3 hours from last-seen-normal and meeting other FDA label criteria, or up to 4.5 hours from last-seen-normal and meeting other AHA guidelines. For non-thrombolysis treated patients, this will include aspirin 325 mg on day 1 followed by aspirin 81 mg or 325 mg thereafter, which will be determined by treating physician and standard deep venous thrombosis prevention therapy. Intravenous anticoagulation and dual anti-platelet therapy will be discouraged without clear documented reasoning. Post-thrombolysis patients will be treated based on standard study site protocols for these patients.

2. Co-morbid psychiatric or medical illnesses that would confound the neurological assessments
3. Treatment with thrombolytic agent beyond 4.5 hours from last known well
