Trial Outcomes & Findings for Multi-arm Optimization of Stroke Thrombolysis (NCT NCT03735979)

NCT ID: NCT03735979

Last Updated: 2025-02-07

Results Overview

The modified Rankin scale is a 7 point ordinal scale ranging from 0="no symptoms" to 6="death" . For the primary analysis, the scale was analyzed with patient-centered utility weights. We assigned the following utility weights to the seven levels: 10, 9.1,, 7.6, 6.5, 3.3, 0, 0 (with higher scores indicating a better outcome).

Population: Intention-to-treat sample

The modified Rankin scale (mRS) is a 7 point scale ranging from 0="no symptoms" to 6="death" where lower scores are better outcomes. For patients with a pre-stroke mRS of greater than 0 or 1, these patients had to return to their historical (pre-stroke) value to be counted as a success.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: baseline

Population: Only participants that received endovascular thrombectomy are analyzed for this outcome.

The modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI) score prior to endovascular thrombectomy procedure. The modified pre-thrombectomy TICI score is a 4 point scale with possible values of 0, 1, 2A, and 2B. The values are defined as follows: 0=No flow, 1=Penetration without distal branch filling, 2A=\<50% partial reperfusion, and 2B=50%-99% partial reperfusion.
