With CTA-confirmed occlusion at baseline, representative of current practice, IMS III has a positive outcome for endovascular therapy.

IMS III: Considering patients with documented occlusion through CT-Angiography, the

endovascular treatment seems to be effective

MR RESCUE

phase 2b, randomized, controlled,open-label (blinded outcome), multicenter trial

conducted at 22 sites in North America

study within 8 hours after the onset of large vessel,anterior-circulation strokes

Mechanical Embolectomy (MerciRetriever or Penumbra System) vs Standard Care.

Randomization was stratified according to whether the patient had a favorable

penumbral pattern (substantial salvageable tissue and small infarct core) or a non

penumbral pattern (large core or small or absent penumbra).

Outcomes 90-day modified Rankin scale,

MR RESCUE

In summary, patients between the

ages of 18 and 85 years, NIHSS

scores of 6 to 29 who had a large-

vessel, anterior-circulation ischemic

stroke were randomly assigned within

8 hours after the onset of symptoms

to undergo either mechanical

embolectomy (Merci Retriever or

Penumbra System)

or standard medical care.

Patients who were treated with

intravenous t-PA without successful

recanalization were eligible if

magnetic resonance angiography or

CT angiography after the treatment

showed a persistent target occlusion

A favorable penumbral pattern was

defined as a predicted infarct core of

90 ml or less and a proportion of

predicted infarct tissue within the at-

risk region of 70% or less.

•Outcome : mRS 0-2

•Outcome : On 7-day CT or MRI perfusion

imaging,

•Successful reperfusion was defined as a

reduction of 90% or more in the volume of the

perfusion lesion from baseline with the time

until the peak of the residue function of more

than 6 seconds.

118 patients who met the full eligibility criteria.

Overall, 68 of 118 patients (58%) had a

favorable penumbral pattern on final core

laboratory review.

Misure di Outcome

MR RESCUE

Conclusions

study did not confirm hypothesis that penumbral imaging would identify

patients who would differentially benefit from endovascular therapy for

acute ischemic stroke within 8 hours after symptom onset

regardless of penumbral-imaging pattern on study entry, no significant

differences were noted in clinical and imaging outcomes for patients undergoing

embolectomy,as compared with those receiving standard medical care.

MR Rescue, Comments • Low recanalization rates (obsolete devices)

• Therapeutic window too wide (late treatments, futile recanalizations)

• Wide latency between imaging and endovascular treatment

• i.v. t-PA used in 37% of patients • • Heterogeneity of perfusional imaging (CT, MR)

• It might be possible that patients with a favorable panumbral pattern

could have a good clinical outcome independently from type of treatment (collaterals)

The trials lesson

• SYNTHESIS expansion and IMSIII ( t-PA vs i.a. thrombolysis IA/ i.v. r-tPA vs i.v. r-tPA + endovascular treatment) : the missed favorable result for i.a. treatment dependend on the inappropriate selection of patients (no documented occlusions) and on the missed used of stent-retrievers (low recanalization rates) although the time to groin was respectively of 225 and 196 mins

• MR rescue - ( within6 h) ( tPA vs TPA+ thrombectomy): too long time-to-treatment, low recanalization rates

Mazighi et al Circulation. 2013;127:1980-1985

Metanalysis of 7 studies on endovascular treatment

It confirms that the time

from the onset to

reperfusion influence the

mortality and the chance to

obtain a favorable outcome:

it should be considered the

main target during the

management of acute

ischemic stroke

The favorable clinical outcome (mRS score, 0–2) was significantly reduced when the

time to reperfusion increased, OR adjusted for increasing intervals of 30 minutes 0.79

conclusions

• Trials and data collected from da studies and registries confirm that the favorable clinical outcome after thrombectomy depends on the recanalization grade, the time to reperfusion (better if within 240 min from the onset) and an appropriate patient selection (core extension and collateral circulation)

• In occlusions of the anterior circulation the endovascular treatment should be started withour waiting for a clinical improvement after IV tPA (bridging, no rescue)
