Clinical Trial Details

Study of Procoagulation Markers in Stroke Patients (I-SPOT)

The Insights on Selected Procoagulation Markers and Outcomes in Stroke Trial (I-SPOT): Response to Insulin Administration and Blood Glucose Control proposal is designed to accompany the Stroke Hyperglycemia Insulin Network Effort (SHINE) clinical trial, a Phase III multicenter, randomized, controlled trial planning to determine the efficacy and validate the safety of glycemic control in stroke patients.

Key Findings

Efficacy and safety of intensive vs. standard hyperglycemia control; functional neurological outcomes are examined for increased tissue marker levels after treatment that are associated with clotting in AIS patients with T2DM.

Detailed Results

Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intensive vs standard glucose control on coagulation markers and functional neurological outcomes in AIS patients with hyperglycemia.

Trial Design: An ancillary trial to the Stroke Hyperglycemia Insulin Network Effort (SHINE); randomized, controlled, multicenter trial. N=270; 34 sites in the US. Comparison of efficacy and safety of intensive glucose control (target 80 mg/dL - 130 mg/dL) to standard control (target up to 179 mg/dL) for functional neurological outcomes by comparing coagulation markers.

Primary Endpoints: Change in blood coagulation marker levels from baseline to 48 hours.


Changes in markers and favorable functional outcome 
Intensive glucose control  Reduced TF-PCA and FVIII; increased FvIIa.
With no tPA, FvIIa elevated when outcomes were favorable. 
Standard glucose control  Increased FBII only

Results: Intensive glucose control was associated with reduced tissue factor procoagulation.

Background

Trial Design: An ancillary trial to the Stroke Hyperglycemia Insulin Network Effort (SHINE).

  • Observational, prospective cohort.
  • Randomized, controlled, multicenter trial.
  • N=270; 34 sites in the US.
  • Comparison of efficacy and safety of intensive glucose control (target 80 mg/dL - 130 mg/dL) to standard control (target up to 179 mg/dL) for functional neurological outcomes by comparing coagulation markers.

Trial population: 270 SHINE patients with hyperglycemia and AIS.

Primary endpoints: Change in biomarker between for favorable vs unfavorable functional outcome @ 48 hours and 90 days.
