Active clinical trials for "Cerebral Infarction"

The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety of Ginkgolides Meglumine Injection in the treatment of ischemic stroke with Syndrome of Intermingled Phlegm and Blood Stasis.

Phase IIa clinical trial, pilot, single centre, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, with sequential inclusion of patients

This is a Phase 1b/2, double-blind (study participants and Investigators), placebo-controlled, randomized, single-ascending dose, multi-center study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of DS-1040b in participants with Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS).

The purpose is to compare the effects of tDCS and constraint induced movement therapy (CIMT) in the premotor cortex vs. primary motor cortex in severely subacute stroke survivors.

The investigators propose to conduct a multicenter randomized trial to test the primary hypothesis of whether early antihypertensive treatment starting between the first 24-48 hours after the onset of an acute ischemic stroke will reduce the risk of composite case-fatality and major disability (modified Rankin Scale score ≥3) at three months compared to delayed antihypertensive treatment (starting on day 8 after stroke onset). In the proposed China Antihypertensive Trial in Acute Ischemic Stroke II (CATIS-2), the investigators will recruit 4,776 patients from 100 hospitals within the China-US Collaborative Stroke Clinical Trial Network. Eligibility criteria for the trial participants include age ≥40 years, acute ischemic stroke confirmed by CT/MRI, symptom onset between 24-48 hours, and average systolic blood pressure (BP) between 140-200 mmHg at randomization. Patients with extracranial or intracranial artery stenosis (≥70%) in both sides or the affected side, NIH Stroke Scale score of ≥21, Glasgow Coma Scale score <8, preceding moderate or severe dependency (modified Rankin scale score 3-5), revascularization, intravenous thrombolytic therapy or mechanical thrombectomy will be excluded. All eligible patients will discontinue their home antihypertensive medications. Patients admitted within 24 hours of symptom onset will require a reevaluation prior to randomization at 24 hours after stroke onset. After randomization, patients in the early treatment group will immediately receive antihypertensive treatment aimed at lowering average systolic BP by 10-20% within the first 24 hours and achieving an average BP <140/90 mmHg within seven days. Patients in the delayed treatment group will discontinue antihypertensive medications for the first seven days. After seven days, both groups will receive antihypertensive treatment with a BP goal of <140/90 mmHg. The primary study endpoint is a composite outcome of death and major disability at three months. The major secondary endpoint will be the first recurrent stroke (hemorrhagic or ischemic) over three-month follow-up after randomization. Other secondary endpoints include ordered 7-level categorical score of the modified Rankin Scale, all-cause mortality, and major vascular events at three months. The proposed study provides 85% statistical power to detect a 15% reduction in the composite outcome of death and major disability over three months at a significance level of 0.05 for a two-sided test. Based on experience from our previous trials, we assumed a 25% event rate of the primary study endpoint and potential loss to follow-up of 5% over three months. The CATIS-2 trial will provide important information for the development of clinical guidelines in the early management of BP among patients with acute ischemic stroke for reducing mortality and major disability.

Patients presenting with acute cerebral ischemic events are randomly assigned into aspirin (n=40) or cilostazol (n=40) group in a double-blinded manner. FMD is measured as a primary outcome at baseline (T0) and 90 days (T1). Serious and non-serious adverse events were described.

The Virtual Reality Glove for Hand and Arm Rehabilitation (vREHAB) trial is a randomized, controlled, phase 3 trial aiming to evaluate the safety, usability, and efficacy of a virtual reality biofeedback system (Neofect RAPAEL Smart Glove) to promote recovery of distal arm and hand function in the acute and subacute period after stroke, as compared to standard of care therapy. The aims of the study is to demonstrate: the effect of Smart Glove use on functional recovery, in addition to standard of care rehabilitation therapy. the feasibility of increasing the dose of rehabilitation in acute stroke patients with the Smart Glove. the effect of Smart Glove use on quality of life.

The study is a randomized, prospective, parallel-group, multicenter, open-label, non-inferiority trial. Patients are randomized 1 : 1 to either stent retriever(Catfish) or Solitaire for endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke. The study aims to evaluate the benefit and safety of stent retriever(Catfish) for acute ischemic stroke therapy, as compared to Solitaire FR.

Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) is the metabolizing enzyme of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), which may play a role in reducing neuroinflammation and regulating cerebral blood flow after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Hypotheses: Pharmacologic inhibition of the sEH enzyme is safe and will result in increased EETs availability in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid. This study is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 1b randomized trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GSK2256294, a novel soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitor in patients with aneurysmal SAH.

The current study aims to evaluate the safety of SP-8203, designing in two stages (stage-1, stage-2) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination therapy of SP-8203 and rtPA for the occurrence of cerebral hemorrhage in patients with acute ischemic stroke receiving rtPA standard of care.
