Efficacy and Safety of FTY720 for Acute Stroke

October 15, 2018 updated by: Fu-Dong Shi, Tianjin Medical University General Hospital

Efficacy and Safety of FTY720 for the Treatment of Acute Stroke

Stroke is one of the main severe disease of public health importance. Increasing evidence suggests that inflammatory mechanisms plays a significant role in stroke. So, immune targets are supposed to be an effective one. The sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor regulator Fingolimod(FTY720)is an effective immunology modulator which has been widely used in autoimmune disease and has been testified effective on stoke animal models.

Study Overview

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study will enroll 87 stroke patients who have been diagnosed with stroke and meet the inclusion criteria.

After successfully meeting initial screening criteria, investigators will contact the family, explain the study, and send a consent form for their review.

After that, patients will be given 0.5mg/day oral fingolimod over a course of 3 consecutive days , then investigators will make a neurofunctional assessment before and 7days, 30 days and 90days after oral fingolimod. And Magnetic Resonance of the brain before, 7days, 14days and 90days after oral fingolimod. Furthermore 5ml intravenous blood for flow cytometry is also taken before and 1day,3days,7days after fingolimod use.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 80 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical improvement
Time Frame: up to 90 days
Neurofunctional assessment including NIHSS, modified Barthel Index, modified Rankin Scale,and Glasgow coma scale are used to describe the clinical improvement at baseline, 7days, 14days, 30days and 90days.
up to 90 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in image
Time Frame: up to 90 days
Outcomes are measured at baseline, 7 days, 14 days and 90 days after onset
up to 90 days
Change in immunology function
Time Frame: up to 7 days
Use the flow cytometry to measure the change at baseline, 1 day, 3 days, 7 days after drug use

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
