Rationale and design of Treatment of Acute Ischaemic Stroke with Edaravone Dexborneol II (TASTE-2): a multicentre randomised controlled trial
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Edaravone dexborneol is believed to be a novel cytoprotective drug, demonstrating a synergistic combination of antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties in animal models. The Treatment of Acute Ischaemic Stroke with Edaravone Dexborneol (TASTE) trial demonstrated its superior efficacy over edaravone alone for acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) patients. However, its efficacy in individuals undergoing endovascular therapy (EVT) remains uncertain. AIM: To clarify the rationale and design of the TASTE II (TASTE-2) trial. DESIGN: The TASTE-2 is a multicentre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of edaravone dexborneol in patients with AIS and large-vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation. The eligible participants, presenting with a National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score between 6 and 25 (range 0-42, with larger values suggesting severe neurological dysfunction) and an Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score ranging from 6 to 10 (range 0-10, with smaller values suggesting larger infarction) within the initial 24 hours after symptom onset, will be randomly allocated to either the edaravone dexborneol group or the placebo group in equal proportions prior to thrombectomy. The treatment will be continuously administered for a duration of 10-14 days. A follow-up period of 90 days will be implemented for all participants. STUDY OUTCOMES: The primary efficacy outcome is defined as achieving favourable functional independence, measured by a modified Rankin Scale of 0-2 at 90 days. The primary safety outcome focuses on the incidence of serious adverse events. DISCUSSION: The TASTE-2 trial will provide evidence to determine whether the administration of edaravone dexborneol in AIS patients undergoing EVT could yield significant improvements in neurological function.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
