About this study
Official title: A Multicenter, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Tirofiban Versus Placebo in Preventing Recurrence of Stroke for Patients With Intracranial Artery Stenosis and High-risk Acute Non-disabling Cerebrovascular Events(CHANCE-4)
This is a multicenter, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized clinical trial comparing the efficacy and safety of tirofiban versus placebo in preventing recurrence of stroke for patients with intracranial artery stenosis and high-risk acute non-disabling cerebrovascular events.
Read the detailed description
This is a multicenter, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized clinical trial to assess the effects of tirofiban versus placebo in preventing recurrence of stroke at 3-month in patients with intracranial artery stenosis and high-risk acute non-disabling cerebrovascular events. The participants will receive study medication of tirofiban or placebo within 24 hours of symptom onset by a randomization ratio of 1:1. For tirofiban group - Initial infusion of tirofiban 0.4μg/kg body weight/minute for 30 minutes (a maximum dose of 1mg) within 24 hours of symptom onset, followed by a continuous infusion of tirofiban 0.1μg/kg body weight/minute for 48 hours. For placebo group - Initial infusion of saline placebo for 30 minutes within 24 hours of symptom onset, followed by a continuous infusion of placebo for 48 hours. The primary efficacy outcome is any new ischemic stroke at 3-month. The primary safety outcome is type 3 or 5 bleeding events according to the BARC criteria at 3-month.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Tirofiban in people with Ischemic Stroke, Acute and TIA, run by Beijing Tiantan Hospital at 5 sites 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 7 inclusion and 32 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 5 sites 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Yongjun Wang (13911172565, yongjunwang@ncrcnd.org.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Any new ischemic stroke at 3-month (time frame: at 3-month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 12 Jul 2024.
