简要总结
Carotid revascularization for primary prevention of stroke (CREST-2) is two independent multicenter, randomized controlled trials of carotid revascularization and intensive medical management versus medical management alone in patients with asymptomatic high-grade carotid stenosis. One trial will randomize patients in a 1:1 ratio to endarterectomy versus no endarterectomy and another will randomize patients in a 1:1 ratio to carotid stenting with embolic protection versus no stenting. Medical management will be uniform for all randomized treatment groups and will be centrally directed.
详细描述
Prevention of stroke involves managing and treating risk factors. Most strokes are caused when blood flow to a portion of the brain is blocked. One place this often happens is in the carotid artery. This blockage is called atherosclerosis or hardening of the arteries.
The purpose of this trial is to determine the best way to prevent strokes in people who have a high amount of blockage of their carotid artery but no stroke symptoms related to that blockage. Each eligible participant will be evaluated to determine which procedure(s) is best for him/her. All participants will receive intensive medical treatment. In addition, participants will be randomized to receive the selected procedure or not.
The trial will be conducted in the United States and Canada by physicians carefully selected on their ability to perform the procedures at low risk. Another key component of the trial is that important stroke risk factors, including hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, cigarette smoking, physical activity, and diet will be managed intensively. Participants will remain in the study for 4 years.

入选标准
- •General Inclusion Criteria
- •Patients ≥35 years old.
- •Carotid stenosis defined as:
- •Stenosis ≥70% by catheter angiography (NASCET Criteria); OR
- •by Doppler ultrasonography (DUS) with ≥70% stenosis defined by a peak systolic velocity of at least 230 cm/s plus at least one of the following:
- •an end diastolic velocity ≥100 cm/s, or
- •internal carotid/common carotid artery peak systolic velocity ratio ≥4.0, or
- •computed tomography angiography (CTA) with ≥ 70% stenosis, or
- •magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) with ≥ 70% stenosis.
- •No medical history of stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) ipsilateral to the stenosis within 180 days of randomization. Life-long asymptomatic patients will be defined as having no medical history of stroke or transient ischemic attack and negative responses to all of the symptom items on the Questionnaire for Verifying Stroke-free Status (QVSS).
- •Patients must have a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 0 or 1 at the time of informed consent.
- •Women must not be of childbearing potential or, if of childbearing potential, have a negative pregnancy test prior to randomization.
- •Patients must agree to comply with all protocol-specified follow-up appointments.
- •Patients must sign a consent form that has been approved by the local governing Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Medical Ethics Committee (MEC) of the respective clinical site.
- •Randomization to treatment group will apply to only one carotid artery for patients with bilateral carotid stenosis. Management of the non-randomized stenosis may be done in accordance with local PI recommendation. Treatment of the non-study internal carotid artery must take place at least 30 days prior to randomization, or greater than 44 days after randomization and 30 days after the study procedure is completed (whichever is longer).
- •Carotid stenosis must be treatable with carotid endarterectomy (CEA), carotid artery stenting (CAS), or either procedure.
排除标准
- •Intolerance or allergic reaction to a study medication without a suitable management alternative.
- •GI hemorrhage within 1 month prior to enrollment that would preclude antiplatelet therapy.
- •Prior major ipsilateral stroke in the past with substantial residual disability (mRS ≥ 2) that is likely to confound study outcomes.
- •Severe dementia.
- •History of major symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage within 12 months that was not related to anticoagulation.
- •Prior Intracranial hemorrhage that the investigator believes represents a contraindication to the perioperative or periprocedural antithrombotic and antiplatelet treatments necessary to complete endarterectomy or stenting per protocol.
- •Current neurologic illness characterized by fleeting or fixed neurologic deficits that cannot be distinguished from TIA or stroke.
- •Patient objects to future blood transfusions.
- •Platelet count <100,000/microliter or history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.
- •Anticoagulation with Phenprocoumon (Marcumar®), warfarin, or a direct thrombin inhibitor, or anti-Xa agents.
- •Chronic atrial fibrillation, unless the patient has had successful atrial appendage closure (e.g., Watchman Device) and no longer requires chronic therapeutic anticoagulation.
- •Any episode of atrial fibrillation within the past 6 months or history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation that is deemed to require chronic anticoagulation.
- •Other high-risk cardiac sources of emboli, including left ventricular aneurysm, severe cardiomyopathy, aortic or mitral mechanical heart valve, severe calcific aortic stenosis (valve area < 1.0 cm2), endocarditis, moderate to severe mitral stenosis, left atrial thrombus, or any intracardiac mass, or known unrepaired patent foramen ovale (PFO) with prior paradoxical embolism.
- •Unstable angina defined as rest angina with electrocardiogram (ECG) changes that is not amenable to revascularization (patients should undergo planned coronary revascularization at least 30 days before randomization).
- •Left Ventricular Ejection fraction <30% or admission for heart failure in prior 6 months.
- •Respiratory insufficiency with life expectancy < 4 years or forced expiratory volume (FEV1) <30% of predicted value.
- •Known malignancy other than basal cell non-melanoma skin cancer. There are two exceptions to this rule: patients with prior cancer treatment and no recurrence for >5 years are eligible for enrollment and cancer patients with life expectancy of greater than 5 years are eligible for enrollment.
- •Any major surgery, major trauma, revascularization procedure, or acute coronary syndrome within the past 1 month.
- •Either the serum creatinine is ≥ 2.5 mg/dl or the estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is < 30 cc/min.

- •Distal/intracranial stenosis greater than index lesion.
- •Any of the following anatomical: radical neck dissection; surgically inaccessible lesions (e.g. above cervical spine level 2 (C2)); adverse neck anatomy that limits surgical exposure (e.g. spinal immobility - inability to flex neck beyond neutral or kyphotic deformity, or short obese neck); presence of tracheostomy stoma; laryngeal nerve palsy contralateral to target vessel; or previous extracranial-intracranial or subclavian bypass procedure ipsilateral to the target vessel.
