About this study

Evaluation of the effect of preoperative intravenous administration of amantadine sulfate on the prevention of the development of early cognitive dysfunction in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic radical prostatectomy

Read the detailed description

Investigators believe that the preoperative prophylactic amantadine sulphate will reduce the incidence of postoperative cognitive disfunction (POCD) in patients with laparoscopic radical prostatectomy due to the neuroprotective effect, alertness enhancing effect and neuron protective effects.

Being tested
Amantadine Sulfate, Placebo (for amantadine sulphate)
Keywords
amantadine sulphate, postoperative cognitive dysfunction, laparoscopic radical prostatectomy
Medical subject headings
Postoperative Cognitive Complications

What is being measured

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

  1. Mini Menthal Test

    cognitive function scale, Patients will be administered 24 hours after surgery.

    Measured: 24 hours after surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Verbal analog Pain Scores on rest and movement

    A Research assistant, blinded to the group allocation, interviewed patients and collected data at 5 times intervals ( 2, 4, 6, 12, 24, 48 hours) in the 48 hours postoperatively. Patients were asked to rate their pain using verbal analog scale, where 0= no pain and 10= worst pain possible.

    Measured: 48 hours after surgrey

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Amantadine Sulfate in people with Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction, run by TC Erciyes University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 20 Jun 2019. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mini Menthal Test (time frame: 24 hours after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03988010, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 20 Jun 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
