Percutaneous Embolectomy, Low Dose Thrombolysis or Heparin for Intermediate High Risk Pulmonary Embolism (STRATIFY II)

Sponsor: Jesper Kjaergaard

Summary

The STRATIFY II trial investigates the efficacy of three different approaches to reducing thrombus burdon in patients with acute intermediate high-risk pulmonary embolism: percutaneous embolectomy (the AlphaVAC(R), AngioDynamics or the Flow Triever® system, INARI medical), Low intravenous thrombolysis (Alteplase 10 mg) and heparin with the option to perform full-dose thrombolysis. As a co-primary secondary end point the trial assess the incremental efficacy of the embolectomy vs the catheter based low dose thrombolysis approach. Thus the two main hypothesis being tested are: 1. Thrombus burden reduction after 48-96 h is increased with a catheter based (embolectomy or low-dose alteplase) compared to the a heparin with optional high dose thrombolysis approach (1st co-primary outcome) 2. Thrombus burden reduction after 48-96 h is increased with percutaneous embolectomy compared to low-dose alteplase (2nd co-primary outcome)
