Eligibility applies to patients with symptomatic ischemic stroke seen within 4.5 h of onset with middle cerebral artery or distal internal carotid artery occlusion, no contraindication to intravenous tPA-mediated thrombolysis and eligible to endovascular treatment of stroke (i.e. thrombectomy). The study has been designed to have 80% power to detect a 80% decrease of infarct volume growth in the tPA-ketamine group at a two-sided type I error rate of 5%. For this purpose, at least 25 patients per arm should be enrolled.', 'detailedDescription': 'Rationale - Tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) is a double-sided molecule, with beneficial effect in acute ischemic stroke due to its intravascular fibrinolytic activity but with potential deleterious effect due to its ability to potentiate neuronal N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor signalling (Nicole et al., 2001). Co-administration of sub-anesthetic dose of ketamine - a non-competitive inhibitor of NMDA receptor - was shown to improve efficacy of tPA-mediated thrombolysis following stroke in rodents (Gakuba et al, 2011).\n\nAims - To assess efficacy and safety of co-administration of ketamine with tPA compared with tPA-placebo infusion in patients with acute ischemic stroke.\n\nSample size estimates -With 25 patients per group, the trial has a 80% probability of detecting a 80% decrease of infarct volume growth in the tPA-ketamine group compared with the tPA-placebo group on day 1 after admission at a two-sided type I error rate of 5%.\n\nStudy outcomes - The primary efficacy outcome is cerebral infarction growth on diffusion weighted imaging between admission and day 1. The primary safety measure is mortality and/or symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage rate at 3 months.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '85 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Sudden focal neurological deficit attributable to acute ischemic stroke.\n* Age between 18 and 85.\n* Time from symptom onset less than 4.5 hours.\n* NIHSS score between 7 and 20.\n* Informed consent for participation.\n* Ketamine can be administered within 15 minutes after onset of tPA infusion.\n* MRI-based AIS diagnosis.\n* Middle cerebral (M1 or M2 segment) and/or distal internal carotid artery occlusion.\n* No intracranial hemorrhage on MRI.\n* Patient eligible for thrombectomy.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Contraindication to IV tPA treatment.\n* Contraindication to ketamine.\n* Contraindication to MRI.\n* Contraindication to intravascular iodinated contrast media.\n* Consciousness level \\>1 on question 1a of NIHSS.\n* Pre-stroke mRS ≥3.\n* Concomitant medical illness that would interfere with outcome assessments and follow-up (e.g. advanced cancer or respiratory disease).\n* Previous participation in this trial or current participation in another investigational drug trial.\n* Infarct volume on diffusion weighted MRI more than 100 mL.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02258204', 'acronym': 'KETA', 'briefTitle': 'Ketamine for Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University Hospital, Caen'}, 'officialTitle': "Effets de la kétamine en Association Avec le Rt-PA au Cours de l'Infarctus cérébral Aigu: étude Pilote contrôlée randomisée en Double Aveugle Avec critère de Jugement Radiologique", 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'KETA'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'tPA-placebo', 'description': 'tPA infusion : 0.9 mg/kg (90 mg maximum), 10% of the total dose is administered as an initial IV bolus dose over 1 minute and the remainder of the dose is infused over 60 minutes.\n\nSaline infusion : 0.15 mL/kg IV bolus (maximum 15 mL) followed by an IV infusion of 0.15 mL/kg over 60 minutes (maximum 15 mL).', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Placebo']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'tPA-ketamine', 'description': 'tPA infusion : 0.9 mg/kg (90 mg maximum), 10% of the total dose is administered as an initial IV bolus dose over 1 minute and the remainder of the dose is infused over 60 minutes.\n\nKetamine infusion : 0.15 mg/kg IV bolus (maximum 15 mg) followed by an IV infusion of 0.15 mg/kg over 60 minutes (maximum 15 mg).', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Ketamine']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Ketamine', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'Co-administration of subanesthetic dose of ketamine with tPA for thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke.', 'armGroupLabels': ['tPA-ketamine']}, {'name': 'Placebo', 'type': 'DRUG', 'armGroupLabels': ['tPA-placebo']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Caen', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'France', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Emmanuel Touzé, MD PhD', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'touze-e@chu-caen.fr', 'phone': '+33231064624'}], 'facility': 'CHU Caen', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 49.18585, 'lon': -0.35912}}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'University Hospital, Caen', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': "Société Française d'Anesthésie Réanimation", 'class': 'UNKNOWN'}, {'name': 'Fondation NRJ', 'class': 'UNKNOWN'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Professor', 'investigatorFullName': 'Emmanuel TOUZE', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'University Hospital, Caen'}}}}
