Patients with stroke due to occlusion of the internal carotid artery or the first segment of the middle cerebral artery were randomized 1:1 to medical therapy vs. endovascular thrombectomy within 24 hours after onset. The trial was stopped early for efficacy, with 20% of patients in the thrombectomy group vs. 7 in the medical therapy group achieving functional independence.
