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

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of (early and late) initiation treatment of Edaravone Dexborneol versus placebo in patients with acute ischemic stroke, and to explore the optimal time window for "brain cell protective therapy" of Edaravone Dexborneol. Patients who were eligible to the inclusion criteria and ineligible to the exclusion criteria will be stratified by time to trial drug: early (<3 hours) and late (3-6 hours). Then each layer will be randomly assigned into two groups by a 1:1 ratio after the ICF was received. Patients in one arm will be given 15ml edaravone and dexborneol concentrated solution for injection (37.5mg, containing edaravone 30mg and dexborneol 7.5mg) twice a day for 10-14 days, and those in the other arm will be given an equivalent placebo drug. All patients will be followed up for 90 days. The primary outcome is the proportion of modified Rankin Scale 0-2 and the safety outcome is the proportion of severe adverse events.

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 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.

90 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures
