Brief summary
The main objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate of the safety & efficacy of the Ceretrieve device within 24 hours post thrombectomy procedure. This means to assess that the use with the Ceretrieve neuro-thrombectomy device that is designed to treat acute ischemic stroke patients raises no safety concerns and that it is found to be effective when it is used according to its intended purpose, which is revascularization of patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusive disease (involving the internal carotid artery, middle cerebral artery- M1 and M2 segments, basilar, and vertebral arteries). The study researchers will compare the efficacy and safety results of this study to data derived from the literature of FDA approved neuro-thrombectomy devices. The study hypothesis is that The Ceretrieve device would achieve successful reperfusion performance shall be similar to the safety & performance derived from the literature. The primary outcomes that will be measures are: Performance: Successful reperfusion, defined as core laboratory-adjudicated modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia (mTICI) score 2b-3 within three passes of the Ceretrieve system without any rescue. Safety: Symptomatic intra-cranial hemorrhage within 24 (18-36) hours of the study procedure. Patients who will participate in this study will be followed for a time period of 3 months. After discharge from the medical center, they will be asked to arrive to a one visit at the clinic for safety data collection and evaluation.
Detailed description
This study is designed as a prospective, multi-center, open-label, single-arm study. Patient will be required to undergo screening evaluation to confirm he/she meet the eligibility study criteria and are suitable to be a study participant. The study patient population is comprised of adult subjects 18 years old and above, suffering from acute ischemic stroke, with a new moderate-to-severe neurologic deficits, angiographically confirmed occlusion in the intracranial internal carotid, middle cerebral (M1 or M2 segment), basilar, or vertebral artery, and can undergo endovascular therapy (at least one Ceretrieve deployment in the target artery), within 24 hours of symptoms on set.

Inclusion criteria
1. Age ≥18 years of age 2. Clinical signs consistent with acute ischemic stroke 3. Subject is able to be treated within 24 hours of stroke symptom onset. 4. Pre-stroke modified Rankin Score of 0 or 1 5. NIHSS \> 6 at the time of screening 6. If intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) is indicated, initiation of IVT should be administered as soon as possible and no later than 4.5 hours of onset of stroke symptoms (onset time is defined as the last time when the patient was witnessed to be at baseline neurologic status), with investigator verification that the subject has received/is receiving the correct IVT dose for the estimated weight. 7. Intracranial occlusion defined as Modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) 0-1 flow confirmed by angiography that is accessible to the mechanical thrombectomy device in the following locations: 1\. Intracranial internal carotid artery 2. M1 and/or M2 segment of the MCA 3. Vertebral artery 4. Basilar artery Note: M1 segment of the MCA is defined as the arterial trunk from its origin at the ICA to the first bifurcation or trifurcation into major branches neglecting the small temporo-polar branch. 8\. A valid completed informed consent in accordance with the local ethics committee regulations.
Exclusion criteria
1. Female who is pregnant or lactating or has a positive pregnancy test at time of admission. 2. Rapid neurological improvement prior to study enrolment suggesting resolution of signs/symptoms of stroke 3. Known serious sensitivity to radiographic contrast agents 4. Known sensitivity to nickel, titanium metals, or their alloys 5. Subjects already enrolled in other investigational studies that would interfere with study endpoints 6. Known hereditary or acquired hemorrhagic diathesis, coagulation factor deficiency. (A subject without history or suspicion of coagulopathy does not require INR or prothrombin time lab results to be available prior to enrolment.) 7. Life expectancy of less than 90 days 8. Clinical presentation suggests a subarachnoid hemorrhage, even if the initial CT or MRI scan is normal. 9. Suspicion of aortic dissection 10. Subject with a comorbid disease or condition that would confound the neurological and functional evaluations or compromise survival or ability to complete follow-up assessments. 11. Known to currently use or abuses alcohol (defined as regular or daily consumption of more than four alcoholic drinks per day). 12. Known arterial condition (e.g., proximal vessel stenosis or pre-existing stent) that would prevent the device from reaching the target vessel and/or preclude safe recovery of the device 13. Subject who requires balloon angioplasty or stenting of the carotid artery at the time of the index procedure 14. Angiographic evidence of carotid dissection 15. Imaging
