Overview

Co-STAR is a multicenter, prospective, open-label, Bayesian Optimal Phase 2 (BOP2) trial that aims to assess the safety and efficacy of adjunctive intravenous TBO-309 in Acute Ischaemic Stroke (AIS) patients with tandem occlusion receiving intra-cranial endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) and acute extracranial carotid artery stenting. Co-STARS study will test the hypothesis that patients with tandem occlusion treated with EVT and acute stenting in conjunction with TBO-309 will: * have persistent stent patency without requiring rescue therapy with GPIIb/IIIa inhibitors and * not experience high rates of symptomatic intra-cranial haemorrhage (sICH). Patients with tandem occlusion undergoing EVT and acute stenting will receive intravenous TBO-309 bolus and infusion. TBO-309 is a potent, selective and ATP competitive PI3K\[beta\] inhibitor which reduces platelet activation adhesion/aggregation particularly under conditions of disturbed blood flow and promotes platelet disaggregation. By targeting PI3K\[beta\], TBO-309 specifically inhibits thrombosis whilst minimizing the impact on normal hemostasis.

Stroke due to large vessel occlusion (LVO) typically causes large infarcts and results in severe disability and a high case fatality rate. Treating LVO by thrombectomy poses technical challenges, especially when the lesion involves not only the extracranial (cervical) part of the internal carotid artery but also its concomitant intracranial distal segment or the ipsilateral middle cerebral artery (tandem occlusion). For patients with tandem occlusion, stenting of the internal carotid is considered acceptable, but it requires the use of antiplatelet therapy to avoid stent thrombosis, often necessitating rescue therapy with GPIIb/IIIa inhibitors. This can lead to an increased risk of hemorrhage especially when potent antiplatelet agents such as GPIIb/IIIa inhibitors are used. The novel investigational agent TBO-309 is a potent, selective and ATP competitive PI3K\[beta\] inhibitor which reduces platelet activation adhesion/aggregation particularly under conditions of disturbed blood flow and promotes platelet disaggregation. By targeting PI3K\[beta\], TBO-309 specifically inhibits thrombosis whilst minimizing the impact on normal hemostasis. This study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of adjunctive TBO-309 in acute ischaemic stroke with tandem occlusion eligible to undergo intra-cranial EVT and acute extracranial carotid artery stenting. The primary endpoint of this trial is a composite outcome of efficacy and safety, defined by: 1. Avoidance of intra-procedural GPIIb/IIIa inhibitor rescue therapy due to stent thrombosis, combined with persistent stent patency seen on angiographic imaging at 24-36 hours, and 2. no sICH. This trial will use Bayesian Optimal Phase 2 (BOP2) trial design, and two intervention doses will be tested sequentially for TBO-309. TBO-309 at the dose of 60 mg will be tested first. Then either a higher dose of 120 mg or a lower dose of 30 mg will be tested based on the results of the 60 mg dose.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Proportion of patients achieving a composite outcome of efficacy and safety

The primary endpoint is a composite outcome of efficacy and safety, defined by the proportion of patients who 1) avoid intra-procedural GPIIb/IIIa inhibitor rescue therapy due to stent thrombosis, combined with persistent stent patency seen on angiographic imaging at 24-36 hours, and 2) have no sICH. sICH is defined as parenchymal haemorrhage type 2 (PH2) on imaging.

Time frame: 24-36 hours

Secondary Outcomes

Proportion of patients achieving reperfusion.

The proportion of patients achieving reperfusion, where reperfusion is defined by the expanded Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction scale (eTICI) 2b50 or better (i.e. 50% to 100%)

Time frame: 24 hours

Infarct volume 24-36 hours post study drug commencement

Time frame: 24-36 hours

Proportion of all patients with any ICH within 24-36 hours post study drug commencement

All ICH as demonstrated on brain imaging at 24-36 hours, where ICH will be classified according to The Heidelberg Bleeding Classification.

Time frame: 24-36 hours

Proportion of patients experiencing any bleeding within 24-36 hours of study drug commencement.

The proportion of patients experiencing any bleeding within 24-36 hours of study drug commencement. Bleeding will be determined using a modified WHO scale with grades 1 and 2 classified as minor bleeding, and grades 3 and 4 as major bleeding.

Time frame: 24-36 hours

National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at 24 hours, and 7 days/at hospital Discharge

The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) is a 15-item neurological examination stroke scale. Scores range from 0 to 42, with higher scores indicating greater severity.

Time frame: 24 hours and 7 days

Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at discharge and 90 days

The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is a scale from 0 to 6, with higher scores indicating greater disability (5), and death (6).

Time frame: 90 days

Proportion of patients with all-cause mortality at 90 days.

Time frame: 90 days
