Direct-to-angio Approach From loCal hOspitals Based on a PoInt-of-care bLOod Test for LVO (COPILOT): an Effectiveness Cluster Randomized Crossover Trial

Обзор

Direct-to-angio approach from loCal hOspitals based on a PoInt-of-care bLOod Test for LVO (COPILOT) is a multi-center, prospective, cluster-randomized crossover trial that will evaluate if the triage assessment to thrombectomy puncture time is shorter after performing the LVOne testing compared to current management standards in patients with suspected large vessel occlusion.

Подробное описание

The COPILOT trial utilizes a cluster randomized crossover design within the Sistema de Salud Menonita (SSM) hospital network to evaluate if early detection of large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke with a novel blood test can accelerate the time from triage assessment to thrombectomy puncture. It will unfold in three phases:

Phase 0 - Baseline Data Collection (3 months): Before the random allocation, all clusters undergo data collection on baseline characteristics and outcome measures to confirm/set a pre-intervention comparison ground. Phase 0 patients will receive the current standard of care. An interim analysis will check recruitment rates and explore the need for additional clusters for adequate study power.

Phase 1 - Intervention and Control (12 months): Clusters are randomized to either the intervention or control group, with the intervention arm implementing the LVOne test and the control arm continuing standard care without the LVOne test. Data analysts remain blinded to group allocation, while an interim analysis revisits recruitment and primary outcomes to assess whether additional clusters are required.

Phase 2 - Crossover (12 months): Clusters switch roles from Phase 1, allowing every cluster to experience both the intervention and control conditions, facilitating within-cluster comparisons. The nature of the intervention prevents the blinding of participants and staff.

Вмешательства

• Диагностический тест Diagnostic standard of care
  Participants will receive the diagnostic standard of care: standard laboratory workup, non-contrast brain CT, brain CTA, brain CTP, or brain MRI.
• Диагностический тест LVOne Test
  Participants will receive the LVOne test, which will measure D-dimer and Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) levels to diagnose acute stroke.
