Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Investigators aim to assess the efficacy and safety of interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor combined with endovascular treatment in patients with acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion stroke.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study population are patients with acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion stroke and planned to undergo endovascular treatment. All participants are randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the tocilizumab group or the placebo group. In tocilizumab group, participants will receive tocilizumab combined endovascular treatment. And in placebo group, participants will receive placebo combined endovascular treatment. All participants will be visited immediately postoperatively, at 24 hours, 7 days, and 90 days after randomization.

Tocilizumab group

Endovascular treatment combined 240 mg tocilizumab injection once.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Tocilizumab

Intervention Type DRUG

240 mg of tocilizumab injection will be diluted in 0.9% NaCl solution to prepare a total solution volume of 100 mL. The solution will be administered via intravenous infusion immediately after randomization, and no later than 30 minutes, with an infusion duration of more than 1 hour.

Placebo group

Endovascular treatment combined equivalent volume of placebo once.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type DRUG

An equivalent volume of placebo will be diluted in 0.9% NaCl solution to prepare a total solution volume of 100 mL. The solution will be administered via intravenous infusion immediately after randomization, and no later than 30 minutes, with an infusion duration of more than 1 hour.
