This NINDS grant is for establishing Regional Coordinating Stroke Centers within the NINDS Stroke Trials Network. Its primary purpose is to maximize efficiencies in developing and conducting high-quality, multi-site clinical trials focused on stroke prevention, treatment, and recovery. The network aims for a balanced portfolio across these approaches, coordinating exploratory, confirmatory, and biomarker-validation studies. Centers will contribute to trial development and planning for both internal NINDS-funded trials and those resulting from industry collaborations. The network also promotes efficiencies through master trial agreements and a central IRB. It will facilitate rapid collaboration with other existing networks, like NETT, and international consortia to conduct large, definitive trials for promising stroke interventions.

| Description: | oordinating Stroke Center in the NINDS Stroke Trials Network. The primary goal of this network is to maximize efficiencies to develop, promote and conduct high-quality, multi-site clinical trials focused on key interventions in stroke prevention, treatment, and recovery with the objective to have a balanced portfolio between all three approaches. Exploratory phase 1, 2 and confirmatory phase 3 clinical trials as well as biomarker-validation studies that are immediately preparatory to trials will be coordinated through separate National Clinical Coordinating and Data Management Centers. Additional efficiencies will be encouraged through the use of master trial agreements and a central IRB. Clinical and basic scientists at the centers will contribute to the development of network clinical trial applications for peer review, as well as planning for execution of NINDS-funded stroke clinical trial applications from outside of the network, including trials that result from Collaborative Research and Development Agreements between the NINDS and Industry partners. The Network will also be uniquely poised to rapidly collaborate with other existing networks, such as the NINDS Neurological Emergencies Treatment Trials Network (NETT) or international consortia to conduct larger, definitive trials of promising interventions for the treatment of stroke. |
