Safety and Efficacy of Baricitinib After Endovascular Treatment in Acute Anterior Circulation Large Vessel Occlusion: A Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial Phase 2, Phase 3 750 Randomized

Not yet recruiting
Clinical Trial NCT07449910 is designed to study Treatment for Acute Ichemic Stroke, Anterior Cerebral Artery Stroke, Baricitinib. This Phase 2 Phase 3 interventional study is not yet recruiting. Enrollment is planned to begin on 17 March 2026 until the study accrues 750 participants. Led by The First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China, this study is expected to complete by 31 January 2028. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on 4 March 2026.
Brief Summary
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Baricitinib combined with endovascular therapy in patients with acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion, to address futile recanalization with priority, and to elucidating the mechanism of JAK/STAT pathway inhibition on neuroprotection and inflammatory regulation.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Distribution of 90-day mRS scores
The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) measures degree of disability/dependence after a stroke, with a score of 0 indicating no disability, 1 no clinically significant disability, 2 slight disability, 3 moderate disability but remaining able to walk unassisted, 4 moderately severe disability, 5 severe disability, and 6 death.
90±14 days post-procedure

  5. The mTICI score after endovascular treatment (EVT) is above 2b.
  6. informed consent.

  1. Intracranial hemorrhage confirmed by CT or MRI.
  2. mRS score>2 for patients <80 years, or mRS score>1 for those ≥80 years before onset.
  3. Pregnant or lactating women.
  4. Allergic to contrast agents.
  5. Allergic to baricitinib or having contraindications for using baricitinib.
  6. Participating in other clinical studies.
  7. Systolic blood pressure >185 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure >110 mmHg, and unable to be controlled by oral antihypertensive drugs.
  8. Genetic or acquired bleeding diathesis, lack of anticoagulant factors or having taken oral anticoagulants and INR >1.7.
