Safety and Efficacy of NeuroFlo in 8-24 Hour Stroke Patients - Full Text View

Sponsor:	CoAxia
Information provided by:	CoAxia
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00436592

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and feasibility of the NeuroFlo™ catheter in treating patients with ischemic stroke whose last time symptom-free was between 8-24 hours prior to treatment. The NeuroFlo device is intended to increase blood flow to the brain and potentially reduce the damage caused by stroke.

Primary Outcome Measures:

Assessment of all adverse events from baseline to 30 days post-treatment. [ Time Frame: 30 Days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Potential benefit will be assessed through collection of neurological indices at baseline, post-procedure, 24 hours, day 4 (or discharge), 30 and 90 days. [ Time Frame: 90 Days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Cerebral perfusion changes associated with device therapy will be assessed using MRI perfusion studies acquired at baseline and ≤ 4 hours post-procedure. [ Time Frame: ≤ 4 hours ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Enrollment:	26

Primary Completion Date:	January 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)

Arms	Assigned Interventions
Experimental: 1	Device: NeuroFlo™ Catheter 45 minute Treatment

Detailed Description:

The study is a prospective, single arm treatment feasibility trial to determine the baseline safety and feasibility of the NeuroFlo device in acute ischemic stroke patients whose last known time symptom-free is between 8-24 hours.

A maximum of 25 patients at 5 US sites and 25 patients at 10 Canadian & European sites may be enrolled in this initial study phase. An independent data safety and monitoring board will assess the safety of the treatment on a routine basis.
