Cell-free DNA in Acute Stroke (CANTO) 200

Recruiting
Clinical Trial NCT06928675 (CANTO) is an observational study for Stroke that is recruiting. It started on March 30, 2025 with plans to enroll 200 participants. Led by University Hospital, Basel, Switzerland, it is expected to complete by September 1, 2026. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on April 15, 2025.
Brief Summary
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is an important pro-inflammatory and prothrombotic mediator. With this study the investigators aim to gain new insights into the role of cfDNA in stroke and to perform a combined analysis of cfDNA in the hyperacute phase of the disease using blood and thrombus analyses. The main objectives are to analyse cfDNA in different stroke etiologies, to investigate the relationship between cfDNA and impo...Show More

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Stroke Etiology
Descriptive comparison of cell-free DNA in cerebral thrombi regarding stroke etiology
at day 1
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Correlation cfDNA concentration and perfusion outcome
cfDNA abount in blood and thromi is assessed in relation to thrombectomy outcomes including perfusion outcome
at day 1
Correlation cfDNA concentration and secondary embolism
cfDNA abount in blood and thromi is assessed in relation to thrombectomy outcomes including secondary embolism
at day 1
Correlation cfDNA concentration and thrombus fragmentation.
cfDNA abount in blood and thromi is assessed in relation to thrombectomy outcomes including thrombus fragmentation
at day 1
Measures of cfDNA as a marker of systemic inflammation
to correlate cfDNA amount in blood and thrombi
at day 1
90-day functional outcomes
to examine the association between cfDNA concentrations in blood and thrombi with 90-day functional outcomes. To assess functional outcomes, the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is evaluated via a structured telephone interview on day 90. A favorable outcome is defined as an mRS score of 0 to 2 points, while an unfavorable outcome is defined as an mRS score of 3 to 5 points.
