ObjectiveThe Neurohawk retriever is a new fully radiopaque retriever. A randomized controlled non-inferiority trial was conducted to compare the Neurohawk and the Solitaire FR in terms of safety and efficacy. In order to evaluate the efficacy and safety of endovascular treatment in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) larger vessel occlusion (LVO), a sub-analysis was performed.MethodsAcute ischemic stroke patients aged 18–80 years with LVO in the anterior circulation were randomly assigned to undergo thrombectomy with either the Neurohawk or the Solitaire FR. The primary efficacy endpoint was successful reperfusion (mTICI 2b-3) rate by the allocated retriever. A relevant non-inferiority margin was 12.5%. Safety outcomes were symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and all-cause mortality within 90 days. Secondary endpoints included first-pass effect (FPE), modified FPE, and favorable outcomes at 90 days. In subgroup analysis, the patients were divided into the ICAD group and non-ICAD group according to etiology, and baseline characteristics, angiographic, and clinical outcomes were compared.ResultsA total of 232 patients were involved in this analysis (115 patients in the Neurohawk group and 117 in the Solitaire group). The rates of successful reperfusion with the allocated retriever were 88.70% in the Neurohawk group and 90.60% in the Solitaire group (95%CI of the difference, −9.74% to 5.94%; p = 0.867). There were similar results in FPE and mFPE in both groups. The rate of sICH seemed higher in the Solitaire group (13.16% vs. 7.02%, p = 0.124). All-cause mortality and favorable outcome rates were comparable as well. In subgroup analysis, 58 patients were assigned to the ICAD group and the remaining 174 to the non-ICAD group. The final successful reperfusion and favorable outcome rates showed no statistically significant differences in two groups. Mortality within 90 days was relatively lower in the ICAD group (6.90% vs. 17.24%; p = 0.054).ConclusionThe Neurohawk retriever is non-inferior to the Solitaire FR in the mechanical thrombectomy of large vessel occlusion-acute ischemic stroke (LVO-AIS). The sub-analysis suggested that endovascular treatment including thrombectomy with the retriever and essential rescue angioplasty is effective and safe in AIS patients with intracranial atherosclerotic disease-larger vessel occlusion (ICAD-LVO).Clinical trial registrationhttps://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04995757, number: NCT04995757. |
