TESLA Trial

Sponsor: Investigator-Initiated Study funded by Genentech, Cerenovus, Medtronic, Penumbra, Stryker

The TESLA Trial is a prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint study that aims to determine the efficacy of intra-arterial mechanical thrombectomy in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke due to a large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation. The trial is looking at moderate to large infarct volume as measured by an NCCT ASPECTS score of 2 to 5. The study randomizes enrolled patients into either of the two available standards of care treatments for ischemic stroke: best medical management using IV-rtPA or intra-arterial treatment with mechanical thrombectomy using FDA approved devices.

TIGER Study:  Treatment with Intent to Generate Endovascular Reperfusion

Sponsor: Rapid Medical

The TIGER Study is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center, IDE study with sites located in the United States and parts of Europe. The study is looking to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Tigertriever device. The Tigertriever assists in restoring blood flow to vessels of the brain by removing large vessel occlusions in event of ischemic stroke.
