Active clinical trials for "Cerebral Infarction"

The primary objective of the study is to determine whether one 300 mg dose of intravenous (IV) natalizumab reduces change in infarct volume from Baseline to Day 5 on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in participants with acute ischemic stroke when given at ≤6 hours or at >6 to ≤9 hours from when they were last known normal (LKN). The secondary objectives of this study in this study population are as follows: to assess the efficacy of natalizumab on change in infarct volume from Baseline to Day 30; to assess efficacy of natalizumab on change in infarct volume from 24 hours to Day 5 and Day 30; to assess the efficacy of natalizumab on clinical measures of stroke outcome; to assess the safety of natalizumab in participants with acute ischemic stroke.

This is a prospective, randomized, single blind, concurrent controlled, multi-center study. Patients presenting with symptoms of acute ischemic stroke who have evidence of a large vessel (2.5mm or greater in diameter) occlusion in the cerebral circulation will be assigned to either the Penumbra System with the Separator 3D or the Penumbra System without the Separator 3D. Each treated patient will be followed and assessed for 3 months after randomization. Up to 230 evaluable patients at up to 50 centers presenting with acute ischemic stroke in vessels accessible to the Penumbra Separator 3D System for revascularization within 8 hours of symptom onset. The hypothesis to be tested is that the safety and effectiveness of the Penumbra System with the Separator 3D for the revascularization of large vessel occlusion is not inferior to the Penumbra System alone.

The purpose of this study is to compare the preventive effect of stroke between triflusal and clopidogrel in ischemic stroke patient based on the cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) polymorphism.

A study to examine the safety and potential effectiveness of the adult stem cell investigational product, MultiStem, in adults who have suffered an ischemic stroke. The hypothesis is that MultiStem will be safe and provide benefit following an ischemic stroke.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and preliminary efficacy of multiple ascending intravenous doses of 3K3A-APC, a Recombinant Variant of Human activated protein C (APC), in in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke following treatment with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), mechanical thrombectomy or both.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether desmoteplase is safe and tolerated when given to Japanese patients with acute ischemic stroke

The primary study objective is to assess the feasibility of using the MindFrame System to safely and effectively restore blood flow in a thrombotic neurovascular occlusion in patients experiencing an ischemic stroke.

The study is designed to assess safety of Vorapaxar when added to standard of care (aspirin) in Japanese subjects with cerebral infarction. The study will assess incidence and tolerability of bleeding, major adverse cardiac events, all adverse events, and effect on expression of markers of inflammation.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the clinical pathway for acute ischemic stroke(with combination of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine) is able to improve the outcome of acute ischemic stroke and evaluate its effect on hospital day and cost, etc. Meanwhile, the study will discuss the safety and efficiency of this kind of Clinical Pathway

The ultimate goal of this multicenter, phase II study is to increase blood pressure until either a neurologic response is seen or a target mean arterial pressure of 30% above baseline is achieved. IV fluids, IV phenylephrine and/or IV norepinephrine are used to rapidly raise mean arterial pressure in a controlled manner as serial assessments of neurologic function are performed.
