Title: Solitaire™ FR With the Intention For Thrombectomy as Primary Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke (SWIFT PRIME) Clinical Trial
Brief Summary: The primary study objective is to determine if subjects experiencing an acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion, treated with combined IV t-PA and Solitaire Revascularization Device within 6 hours of symptom onset have less stroke-related neurological disability (mRS) than those subjects treated with IV t-PA alone
