About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multi-center Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of the Salfaprodil for Injection in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke

The purpose of the study is to explore safety and efficacy of Salfaprodil administration for patients with acute ischemic stroke within 6 hours of onset.

Read the detailed description

The present study is to investigate safety and efficacy of Neu2000, a multi-target neuroprotectant acting as a moderate NR2B-selective NMDA receptor antagonist and potent antioxidant, in acute ischemic stroke patients within 6 hours of onset. Compared to NMDA antagonists or antioxidants, improved efficacy and therapeutic time window of Neu2000 have been well documented in four animal models of stroke. Notable Safety of Neu2000 has been demonstrated in 168 human subjects conducted in the US and China as well as animals.

In the present phase II study, patients with acute ischemic stroke within 6 hours of onset would be assigned randomly to one of four groups as follows:

  • Group A receiving 2.75g Neu2000KWL for 5 days
  • Group B receiving 5.25g Neu2000KWL for 5 days
  • Group C receiving 6.00g Neu2000KWL for 5 days
  • Group D receiving placebo for 5 days

Patients will receive intravenous infusion of the clinical study drug twice a day at 12±1 hour intervals for 5 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Neu2000KWL in people with Stroke and Cerebral Infarction, run by Beijing Tiantan Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 10 inclusion and 26 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jul 2020. 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 China. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The ratio of patients with NIHSS score of 0-1 or with reduction of NIHSS score of ≥4 than the baseline on 14 ± 2 day following the first injection. (time frame: days:14±2). 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 24 Jul 2020.
