Clinical Professor, Clinical Medicine
Biography
Professor Dominick McCabe, Chairman, Vascular Neurology Research Foundation, has a long track record in clinical and translational research in General and Vascular Neurology / Stroke Medicine. His world-class research group at AMNCH has an international reputation for conducting studies on translational platelet science, haemostasis and thrombosis, and vascular imaging in patients with ischaemic cerebrovascular disease (CVD) and carotid stenosis. Prof. McCabe has been involved in clinical research since 1996. He designed and conducted several studies on translational platelet science in CVD for his PhD at University College London. He has an in-depth knowledge of this field, and has established the international multidisciplinary OATS-I consortium. His research group have published numerous peer-reviewed articles in this field, and are currently participating in 16 local, national or international collaborative studies in ischaemic cerebrovascular disease and aspects of general neurology.

Research Expertise
Description
I have successfully established an independent research programme in translational platelet science and haemostasis research in cerebrovascular disease at the Royal Free Campus, ION, and at Tallaght University Hospital(TUH)-AMNCH / TCD, with established links to 31 world-class collaborating centres in Ireland, UK, EU, USA and Canada. Since my appointment to TUH-AMNCH in 2006, as Principal Investigator (PI), Co-PI or Collaborator, I successfully secured 4,407,672 to fund the collaborative research programme that I lead on site at TUH-AMNCH / TCD I am the named author/collaborator on 99 peer-reviewed publications; first or senior author on 56, including publications in several leading high-impact factor journals in Neurology, Stroke Medicine, Haematology, Haemostasis and Thrombosis.Projects
- Title
- REVEALED
- Summary
- Clinical investigator at AMNCH in the Irish multi-centre 'REVEALED' study: A prospective non-interventional study to assess MRI activity and changes in patient rEported outcomes in clinically stable patients, with a preVious diagnosis of rElApsing remitting multiple scLerosis and currently treated with first linE DMTs
- Title
- CONVINCE
- Summary
- I am collaborating with Professor Peter Kelly at the Mater University Hospital, UCD in the multi-centre CONVINCE trial assessing the effects of colchicine in patients with recent high-risk TIA or ischaemic stroke. Local recruitment commenced in March 2017.
- Date From
- 2017
- Title
- ESCAPE
- Summary
- I was a Clinical Investigator in the International ESCAPE trial, AMNCH, Dublin, Ireland, which was coordinated by colleagues in Calgary, Canada (March 2014 to date). Data from this study and other international studies led to major advances in the treatment of acute ischaemic stroke due to a middle cerebral artery occlusion
- Date From
- 2014
- Title
- 'Ireland Natalizumab (Tysabri®) Observational Program (iTOP)
- Summary
- I am one of the Irish Neurology investigators in the ongoing, 'Ireland Natalizumab (Tysabri®) Observational Program (iTOP) that is assessing outcomes in Irish patients with relapsing-remitting MS treated with natalizumab.
- Title
- TYGRIS Study
- Summary
- I was a local investigator at AMNCH in a longitudinal study of the safety and efficacy of Natalizumab in patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (TYsabri® Global observational pRogram In Safety [TYGRIS] study).
- Title
- "Exploring Cardiovascular Rehabilitation within the Cerebrovascular Disease Population
- Summary
- I am the supervising Vascular Neurologist for a Health Research Board (HRB)-funded project entitled "Exploring Cardiovascular Rehabilitation within the Cerebrovascular Disease Population". Funding for this study was secured by Olive Lennon, Senior Physiotherapist at Baggot Street Stroke Rehabilitation Unit, who coordinated the study under the co-supervision of Dr Catherine Blake at UCD. Study recruitment is complete, Dr Lennon has defended her PhD in UCD, and manuscript preparation is in progress.

- HRB
- Title
- OATS 1 Study
- Summary
- Study Coordinator for a proposed, prospective, international, multicentre study investigating the predictive value of testing for, and the mechanisms influencing ex vivo 'high on-treatment platelet reactivity' in patients with ischaemic cerebrovascular disease. I established the international Optimal Antiplatelet therapy following TIA and ischaemic Stroke-International (OATS-I) Study consortium with colleagues in 31 Vascular Neurology/Stroke Medicine centres, Universities, SMEs and Patient Representative Organisations in Ireland, The UK, Europe, USA and Canada. If funding is successfully obtained, I will be the PI for the OATS-I study. - During the design of this study, I have fortunately also established close collaborative links with colleagues in the International Stroke Genetics Consortium to coordinate the pharmacogenetics component of the OATS-I study (Dr Joan Montaner and Dr Israel Fernandez, Barcelona, and Prof Vincent Thijs, Leuven, Belgium and Melbourne, Australia).
- Title
- "The TRinity AntiPlatelet responsiveness (TRAP) Study
- Summary
- PI in a longitudinal Translational Platelet Science / Haemostasis study in patients with cerebrovascular disease entitled "The TRinity AntiPlatelet responsiveness (TRAP) Study. My research group collaborated with colleagues in Neurology, Age-Related Health Care, Vascular Surgery and Haemostasis at AMNCH / Tallaght Hospital and St James's Hospital, TCD to complete this study. These data have improved our understanding of the biological effects of antiplatelet agents in different subtypes of TIA and ischaemic stroke on platelet activation / function, endothelial activation and coagulation system potential. - The results of the TRAP study have led to the hypotheses for the ongoing collaborative 'Optimal Antiplatelet therapy following TIA and ischaemic Stroke (OATS) Study in which I am the PI. The ultimate aim of this work is to optimise secondary prevention of vascular events in patients of all ages who present with neurological dysfunction secondary to a transient ischemic attack or ischaemic stroke.
- Title
- 'Platelets and Carotid Stenosis (PACS) Study'.
- Summary
- Co-PI with Professor George Hamilton (Professor of Vascular Surgery, Royal Free Hospital, London) in an observational analytical study entitled the 'Platelets and Carotid Stenosis (PACS) Study'. As the on-site Principal Investigator, I successfully collaborated with colleagues in Neurology, Age-Related Health Care, Vascular Surgery and Haematology / Haemostasis at AMNCH / Tallaght Hospital and St James's Hospital, TCD, and with Platelet Science colleagues at the Department of Molecular and Cellular Therapeutics, RCSI to complete the PACS Study. During this study, we ran an active research programme on transcranial Doppler ultrasound monitoring for emboli detection in patients with carotid stenosis, and our data have been validated by blinded-external review by a collaborating international expert in this field (Prof Maher Saqqur, Alberta, Canada). Data from this study have led to several peer-reviewed publications, and have improved our understanding of the haemostatic/thrombotic biomarker profile in patients with moderate or severe asymptomatic and symptomatic carotid stenosis. - Based on these data, I designed the HaEmostasis In carotid STenosis (HEIST) Study' in collaboration with my Vascular Surgery colleague at the Royal Free Hospital, London (Prof Hamilton), my Radiology colleague (Prof James Meaney) and Haematology / Haemostasis colleague (Prof James O'Donnell) at St James's Hospital / TCD, and Platelet Science colleagues at the RCSI (Prof Niamh Moran, and Dr Dermot Cox). Data analysis has been completed and manuscripts are being prepared for peer-review.
