Fluoxetine Opens Window to Improve Motor Recovery After Stroke (FLOW)
FLOW Trial: Fluoxetine to Open the Critical Period Time Window to Improve Motor Recovery After Stroke

Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
FLOW Trial is a randomized, placebo-controlled, blinded phase II trial evaluating the efficacy of coupling antidepressant therapy (e.g., selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor - fluoxetine) with exercise rehabilitation across multiple Canadian sites in 176 stroke patients. 88 patients will be enrolled in each arm of the study. Both groups will receive an exercise program in addition to standard of care rehabilitation, but only one group (the intervention group) will receive the active drug fluoxetine.
Study participants will be evaluated at baseline, post-exercise program and 6-months post-exercise program. While enrolled in the study, participants will be required to take part in a 12 week, 3 times per week exercise program. Evaluators and patients will be blind to the treatment administered. The trial is constructed with randomization to remove selection and allocation biases and to ensure greater validity in observed differences in the outcome measures. The Applied Health Research Centre (AHRC) in Toronto will act as the coordinating and analysis center.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Fluoxetine Hydrochloride
Fluoxetine (Prozac) will be administered to this group.
A ramp up period of 3-5 weeks will take place where the patient takes 10mg of Prozac per day.
After that, the participant will take the regular dose of 20mg for the duration of the exercise intervention (12 weeks).
|
Half of the participants will take fluoxetine for a period of 15-17 weeks (depending on ramp-up period).
Other Names:
All participants will take part in a 12-week exercise program.
The program will run 3 times/week, 1 hour/class.
|
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
An over-encapsulated placebo, or "sugar pill" (so it appears identical to the trial drug) will be administered to this group.
During the 3-5 week ramp up period for the experimental group, these participants will take a placebo identical to the 10mg Prozac capsule.
After that, the participant will take a placebo identical to the 20mg Prozac capsule for the duration of the exercise intervention (12 weeks).

All participants will take part in a 12-week exercise program.
The program will run 3 times/week, 1 hour/class.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Fugl-Meyer Lower Extremity Score
Time Frame: Following completion of the 12-week exercise intervention
|
Fugl-Meyer Lower Extremity Assessment assesses motor and sensorimotor impairment in the lower extremities.
Total score is between 0 and 34.
Sub-scales include: proximal (0-18), knee/ankle (0-10) and coordination/speed (0-6).
Higher scores indicate better performance.
Sub-scale scores are summed to calculate total score.

Stroke Impact Scale
Time Frame: Following completion of the 12-week exercise intervention and 6-months post-exercise intervention
|
Stroke-specific, self-report, health status measure.
Assesses multiple domains on a 5-point Likert scale.
Domains include: strength (4-20), hand function (5-25), activities of daily living/instrumental activities of daily living (10-50), mobility (9-45), communication (7-35), emotion (9-45), memory and thinking (7-35), and participation (8-40).
An extra question asks that the patient rate on a scale from 0 - 100 how much they feel that he/she has recovered from his/her stroke.
The 4 physical domains (strength, hand function, mobility and activities of daily living) can be summed together to create a single, physical dimension score (28-140) while all other domains should remain separate.
Higher scores indicate better function.
