While the primary objective of the trial is safety evaluation, efficacy assessments will also be obtained, including MRI/MRA (including DWI, PWI and T2 imaging) and plasma surrogate biomarkers. Clinical outcome will also be assessed at 7days, 30 days and 90 days post-treatment. At each of these visits, mortality and neurological assessments (NIHSS, Barthel index, mRankin scale) will be performed. In addition, vital status will be assessed vial a telephone contact at 60 days post-treatment.
