About this trial

This study assesses the efficacy and safety of endovascular therapy in patients with acute basilar artery occlusion with large core infarction within a multicenter, prospective, open-label, blinded endpoint, randomized controlled trial

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

The age ranged from 18 to 80 years

Acute ischemic stroke in posterior circulation, the time from stroke onset (or finally found normal) to randomization was within 24 hours

Acute basilar artery occlusion confirmed by CTA,MRA,or DSA

Posterior circulation large core infarction:NCCT or DWI showed pc-ASPECTS≤5, or Pons-Midbrain Index (PMI)≥3

Disqualifiers

Any sign of intracranial hemorrhage (except microbleeds) on brain imaging prior to randomization

Complete cerebellar infarct with significant mass effect, or bilateral thalamic infarction as evidenced by baseline neuroimaging

Known or highly suspected chronic occlusion of basilar artery

History of contraindication for contrast medium (except mild rash)
