HR-MRI-Directed Tirofiban Therapy for Late-Window Acute Ischemic Stroke (TIAN)

Официальное название

Efficacy and Safety of Tirofiban Therapy in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients Beyond the Time Window Guided by High-Resolution Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Обзор

This study aims to address the existing clinical challenges by introducing high-resolution magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging (HR-MRI), an advanced imaging technology, to achieve precise etiological classification in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) beyond the time window. HR-MRI allows clear visualization of intracranial arterial wall structures and direct identification of key pathological features of the culprit vessel, including atherosclerotic plaques, vascular wall remodeling, and intracranial hemorrhage, thereby enabling reliable differentiation between intracranial atherosclerotic large artery atherosclerosis (ICAS-LAA) stroke and other etiological subtypes such as cardiogenic embolism. Based on the latest clinical demands and advances in imaging technology, this study intends to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tirofiban in patients with ICAS-LAA stroke beyond the time window under the precise guidance of HR-MRI. It is expected to provide high-level evidence-based medical evidence for this specific patient population and further optimize clinical diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Вмешательства

• Препарат Tirofiban
  Intravenous tirofiban was administered within 30 minutes of randomization, with an initial bolus infusion at a rate of 0.4 μg/(kg·min) for 30 minutes, followed by a continuous infusion at 0.1 μg/(kg·min) for 47.5 hours.
• Препарат dual antiplatelet therapy
  Initiate dual antiplatelet therapy as early as possible (aspirin 100 mg/day plus clopidogrel 75 mg/day) for a total of 21 days, followed by long-term maintenance with aspirin 100 mg/day alone. For patients at high risk of stroke, such as those with severe stenosis of major blood vessels, dual antiplatelet therapy should be administered for 90 days.
