Clinical Trial Summary

This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel, phase IV study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sovateltide (PMZ-1620, IRL-1620) as a potential treatment for cerebral ischemic stroke.


Clinical Trial Description

The presence of stem cells in the brain that become active after brain injury is an interesting aspect of regeneration and repair after stroke. The intravenous administration of sovateltide (TYVALZI™, IRL 1620) enhances the activity of neuronal progenitor cells and angiogenesis in the brain. This promotes the formation of new mature neurons and blood vessels, aiding in the repair process. Additionally, sovateltide exhibits anti-apoptotic activity, preventing cell death, and it can increase cerebral blood flow when administered after ischemia. These properties make sovateltide a promising candidate for promoting brain repair and facilitating recovery following acute ischemic stroke. The study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sovateltide in 160 patients with acute cerebral ischemic stroke. Sovateltide will be administered intravenously in addition to standard treatment. The patients will be divided into two groups, with 80 patients in each. Group 1 will receive sovateltide along with standard treatment, while Group 2 will receive normal saline along with standard treatment. The study will span approximately 18 months, with a patient enrollment period of around 15 months. Each patient will be followed for a total of 3 months, with three study visits during that period. The study will adhere to ethical guidelines and obtain informed consent from patients or their legally acceptable representatives. Efficacy analysis will be performed using statistical tests to compare outcomes between the groups, including NIHSS (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale), mRS (Modified Rankin Scale), and BI (Barthel index) scores. Safety analysis will involve monitoring and categorizing adverse events (AEs) and treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) using standardized medical terminology. Adverse events will be evaluated based on their relationship to the study drug, seriousness, severity, actions taken, and outcomes. Clinical laboratory parameters, vital signs, and physical examinations will also be assessed. ;
