Safety and Efficacy of Edaravone Dexborneol Sublingual Tablets for Blood-Brain Barrier Dysfunction in CADASIL

3. července 2026 aktualizováno: Xin Cheng, Huashan Hospital

Safety and Efficacy of Edaravone Dexborneol Sublingual Tablets for Blood-Brain Barrier Dysfunction in CADASIL: A Single-Center, Prospective, Single-Arm, Self-Controlled Clinical Trial.

This study is a single-center, prospective, single-arm, self-controlled clinical trial designed to assess the safety and efficacy of edaravone dexborneol sublingual tablets for blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction in patients with CADASIL.

The study will enroll approximately 60 participants aged 18 to 80 years with genetically confirmed CADASIL. Participants will be followed for a total duration of 12 months, including two consecutive phases.

  • Phase 1 is a 6-month natural history observation period, during which participants do not receive the study drug and continue their routine standard care for CADASIL.
  • Phase 2 is a 6-month drug intervention period, in which participants will receive edaravone dexborneol sublingual tablets to investigate the effect on the BBB water exchange rate (kw), measured by diffusion-prepared pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (DP-pCASL) MRI, and to assess potential benefits on stroke risk reduction, cognitive function, and gait performance.

The primary endpoint is the change in kw measured by DP-pCASL. Secondary endpoints include the incidence of clinical stroke events; changes in neuropsychological performance, MRI-based CSVD biomarkers, gait and motor assessments, functional disability and activities-of-daily-living scales, and peripheral blood biomarkers. Safety assessments will include adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs).

Detailní popis

This study is a single-center, prospective, single-arm, self-controlled clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of edaravone dexborneol sublingual tablets for blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction in CADASIL patients.

  1. Background and Rationale CADASIL is the most common monogenic form of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD), caused by pathogenic mutations in the NOTCH3 gene. BBB dysfunction is increasingly recognized as one of the core pathophysiological mechanisms in CADASIL, contributing to white matter injury, progressive cognitive decline, and recurrent stroke, and represents a potential therapeutic target. Edaravone Dexborneol, a novel free radical scavenger and anti-inflammatory agent, has shown neuroprotective effects in preclinical models and clinical trials for ischemic stroke. The TASTE-SL trial demonstrated that edaravone dexborneol improved 90-day functional outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Based on these findings, this study is designed to systematically assess the efficacy and safety of edaravone dexborneol sublingual tablets in ameliorating BBB dysfunction in patients with CADASIL, and to investigate their potential benefits in reducing stroke risk and improving cognitive function.
  2. Study Design and Methods A total of 60 participants aged 18 to 80 years with genetically confirmed CADASIL will be recruited. The primary endpoint is the change in the BBB water-exchange rate (kw), measured by diffusion-prepared pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (DP-pCASL) MRI. The trial consists of two sequential phases: during the first 6 months (natural disease observation period), participants do not receive the study drug and continue their routine standard care for CADASIL, allowing for the characterization of intra-individual natural variability of kw. During the subsequent 6 months (treatment period), all participants will receive edaravone dexborneol sublingual tablets in addition to their routine standard care, and treatment-related changes in kw will be evaluated. All participants will undergo multimodal MRI scanning at baseline, month 6, and month 12, along with comprehensive assessments including cognitive testing, clinical scales, and peripheral blood biomarkers.
  3. Significance This study is expected to fill a significant gap in pharmacological intervention research for CADASIL and provide clinical evidence supporting the potential extension of edaravone dexborneol to genetically mediated small vessel disease.

During the subsequent 6 months (treatment period), participants receive edaravone dexborneol sublingual tablet in addition to their routine standard care.
One tablet (containing edaravone 30 mg and dexborneol 6 mg) is taken sublingually twice daily for the 6-month treatment period.

Change in whole-brain blood-brain barrier water exchange rate (kw) measured by DP-pCASL MRI
Časové okno: Baseline, Month 6, and Month 12
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) water exchange rate (kw), an imaging marker of BBB function, is quantified on whole-brain diffusion-prepared pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (DP-pCASL) MRI at baseline, month 6, and month 12. All participants are untreated during the first 6 months (observation period) and receive edaravone dexborneol sublingual tablets during the subsequent 6 months (treatment period). The change in kw during the observation period (baseline to Month 6) is compared with the change during the treatment period (Month 6 to Month 12) to distinguish the natural trajectory of BBB dysfunction from a potential treatment effect.
