Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • inclusion criteria:
  • Patient age ≥ 18 years old and life expectancy of 5 years or more.
  • Symptomatic sNA-ICAO defined as:diagnosed by CTA or MRA and confirmed by angiography; Vascular occlusion time more than 24 hours;TIA or ischemic stroke (confirmed by CT or MRI) related to the LCAO despite SMT \< 90 days prior to enrollment.
  • Modified Rankin scale score 0-2 at the time of informed consent.
  • More than one risk factor for atherosclerosis.
  • For patients with ICA or MCA M1 segment occlusion, ipsilateral hypoperfusion confirmed by CTP or MRI perfusion imaging prior to enrollment and analysis by the RAPID system.
  • For patients with intracranial segment occlusion of the vertebral artery, severe stenosis or occlusion of the contralateral vertebral artery.
  • Among women, no childbearing potential; or if a woman with childbearing potential, a negative pregnancy test result prior to randomization.
  • Agreement of the patient to comply with all protocol-specified follow-up appointments.
  • Signature by a patient of a consent form that has been approved by the local governing institutional review board (IRB)/medical ethics committee (MEC) of the respective clinical site.
  • exclusion criteria:
  • Intolerance or allergic reaction to a study medication without a suitable management alternative.
  • No atherosclerotic intracranial vasculopathies, such as dissection, moyamoya disease and vasculitis.
  • Concomitant intracranial aneurysms or any bleeding disorder.
  • Life expectancy \<1 year due to other medical conditions.
  • Large infarction core, defined as an ASPECTS \< 6 in anterior circulation and pc-ASPECTS \< 6 points in posterior circulation.
  • For patients with MCA M1 segment occlusion, concomitant ≥50% stenosis of the proximal internal carotid artery or other intracranial arteries.
  • For patients with intracranial segment occlusion of the vertebral artery, continuance of the occluded vertebral artery to the posterior inferior cerebellar artery with no stump.
  • Incomplete clinical and imaging data.
  • Coexistent cardioembolic source (e.g., atrial fibrillation, mitral stenosis, prosthetic valve, MI within six weeks, intracardiac clot, ventricular aneurysm and bacterial endocarditis).
  • Occlusive lesions with severe calcification.
  • Platelet count \<100,000/ml or history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction \<30% or admission for heart failure in the prior 6 months.
  • Extreme morbid obesity that would compromise patient safety during the procedure or the periprocedural period.
  • Coronary artery disease with two or more proximal or major diseased coronary arteries with 70% stenosis that have not or cannot be revascularized.
  • Anticoagulation with Marcumar, warfarin or direct thrombin inhibitors or anti-XA drugs.
  • Chronic atrial fibrillation.
  • Any history of atrial fibrillation or paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in the past 6 months that is considered to require long-term anticoagulant therapy.
  • Other high-risk cardiogenic embolisms, including left ventricular aneurysm, severe cardiomyopathy, aortic or mitral mechanical heart valve, severe calcified aortic stenosis (valve area \< 1.0 cm2), endocarditis, moderate to severe mitral stenosis, left atrial thrombus or any intracardiac mass or known paradoxical embolism of unrepaired PFO.
  • Unstable angina defined as rest angina with ECG changes that is not amenable to revascularization (patients should undergo planned coronary revascularization at least 30 days before randomization).
  • Any major surgery, major trauma, revascularization procedure or acute coronary syndrome within the past 1 month.
  • serum creatinine \>2.5 mg/dl or estimated GFR \<30 cc/min.
  • Major surgery planned within 3 months after enrollment.
  • Currently listed or being evaluated for major organ transplantation (i.e., heart, lung, liver and kidney).
  • Participation in other trials and may affect the results of this study.
  • Inability to understand and cooperate with research procedures or provide informed consent.
  • Endarterectomy, bypass or stent implantation performed on the proximal end of the occlusion vessel.
