Active clinical trials for "Ischemic Stroke"

This Phase 1 study is planned to establish the clinical safety and pharmacokinetics profile of multiple dose of LT3001 drug product and to investigate drug interactions of LT3001 with potential concomitant medications in healthy subjects.

The primary objective of the study is to confirm the efficacy of compound Edaravone Injection via intravenous infusion every 12 hours in the patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke(AIS) in a double-blind, active-controlled manner. The study is also to examine the safety of compound Edaravone Injection for the AIS patients.

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the Penumbra System in a population with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusion (LVO).

Many preclinical studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of intermittent fasting (IF) in a wide range of neurological and cardiovascular diseases. This pilot study aims to investigate the safety and compliance as well as efficacy of one specific IF intervention called time-restricted feeding (TRF; 16 hours fasting daily) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).

This study is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, end-point blinded, randomized, parallel positive control, non-inferiority clinical trial, with a purpose to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Hemo Jirui intracranial thrombus aspiration catheter system for endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke by comparison with stent retriever (Solitaire FR). The trial is anticipated to last from November 2018 to May 2019, with 204 subjects recruited from 15-20 clinical trial centers in China.

Purpose: Cancer-related hypercoagulability plays an important role in the development of cancer-related stroke. With rapidly aging population and increasing cancer prevalence, cancer related stroke has become an important stroke subtype. Recent studies suggest that hypercoagulability is associated with poor prognosis and effective correction of coagulopathy maybe protective for survival in cancer related stroke patients. Optimal strategies to correct coagulopathy in cancer stroke patient remains to be determined. Currently, the use of low molecular-weighted heparin is recommended in these patients, but non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants (NOACs) could be safe alternative without the need for injection subcutaneously. Furthermore, NOACs could be an optimal treatment strategy for cancer-related stroke in terms of correcting coagulopathy with less injection related complication (ex. pain and infection) compared to Enoxaparin.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of Melatonin (in a dosage of 14mg daily) for a better clinical outcome in the period three days post stroke.

Recruited patients should receive the endoscopic surgery for picking the olfactory mucosa 1 to 2 months before transplantation. The Olfactory Ensheathing Cells (OECs) will be cultured and expanded under the rule of GTP. Then, quality control of OECs should be done by immunohistochemical staining positive for GFAP, S100, and P75. Finally, the investigators will transplant the OECs (about 2 to 8 X 10´6 cells in saline) into the peri-infarcted area of the brain.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a rehabilitation (physiotherapy) program in patients with acute ischemic stroke in Acute Vascular Unit and in general ward of Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre, and to verify the degree of disability at fourteenth and third month, functional improvement at third month, the frequency of deaths and incidence of complications due to immobility and quantify the time spent in hospital.

Phase III, single-centre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral Vitamin E (Mixed Tocotrienol) for 6 months in patients with moderate ischemic stroke. 150 patients will be recruited and randomized to receive either placebo or mixed tocotrienol 200mg twice a day for 6 months. Patients will be followed up and assessed on their functional recovery.
