DLBS1033 for the Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke

The Role of DLBS1033 in the Management of Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients: A Randomized Controlled Study

This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, and controlled clinical study to investigate the effects of DLBS1033 in conjunction with standard therapy compared to standard therapy alone in acute ischemic stroke patients.

Study Overview

• Status: Terminated
• Conditions: Acute Ischemic Stroke
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Placebo; Drug: DLBS1033

Detailed Description

Patients included into the study will be randomized into two groups and receive either standard therapy alone (as control group) or standard therapy plus DLBS1033 at a dose of 490 mg three times daily (as DLBS1033 group). Standard therapy used in the study will consist of: aspirin 80 mg, simvastatin 20 mg, vitamin B complex, and citicholine 250 mg/2 mL twice daily.

After hospital admission and diagnosis, patient will be handled according to the standard management for acute ischemic stroke applicable in the hospital. Right after the patient is confirmed eligible to the study, the treatment(s) will be switched immediately into the study's regimens. Clinical and laboratory examinations to evaluate the investigational drug's efficacy will be performed at baseline, day 4, and day 8 of treatment (end of study); while safety examinations will be performed at baseline and end of study.
