What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To determine the efficacy of minocycline in reducing neurological sequelae in patients with stroke

    The researchers evaluated the neurological condition of paralysis, aphasia,and level of consciousness by NIHSS score for each patient with stroke and proceeded to give minocycline or placebo. Then, the assessment was repeated after five and thirty days post treatment to determine whether their neurological sequelae had diminushed.

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Identify the side effects of the intervention administered during the treatment time and 30 days later.

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Minocicline in people with Stroke and Brain Ischemia, run by Hospital Universitario Hernando Moncaleano Perdomo at 1 site in Colombia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Colombia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Nataly Bedoya, md (nata0916@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine the efficacy of minocycline in reducing neurological sequelae in patients with stroke (time frame: one year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Mar 2012.
