Filter by:This is a retrospective, multi-center, real-world study. The researchers plan to include 10,000 cases of ischemic stroke patients using butylphthalide and 10,000 cases of ischemic stroke patients using Edaravone. The main purpose is to analyze the effectiveness and safety of butylphthalide and establish the drug risk assessment management plan.
The Jacobs Institute is participating in a Sponsor Investigator study designed to collect prospective clinical evidence to evaluate the use of a neurological thrombectomy device for clot retrieval in acute ischemic patients
Positioning of the patient with hyperacute large artery ischemic stroke (IS) is an important, yet understudied aspect of care that could impact the course of treatment and ultimately clinical outcome. Positioning with the head of bed (HOB) at 0-degree has been shown in small studies to increase cerebral blood flow across arterial occlusion in hyperacute large artery IS, leading to clinical improvement in stroke symptoms. However, this position is believed to increase the risk of aspiration pneumonia. In this randomised clinical trial, the investigators aim to evaluate whether use of 0-degree HOB positioning is associated with clinical stability in hyperacute IS. Investigators hypothesise that patients with large artery occlusions placed in a 0-degree HOB position will experience less early neurologic deterioration within the first 24 hours, than those in the 30-degree or more HOB elevation group. The study aims to confirm the safety of 0-degree-HOB positioning in a large, generalizable sample of hyperacute large artery IS patients. In this randomised trial, patients presenting to the study centers and eligible for intravenous thrombolysis, with (if presenting within 4.5 hours of symptom-onset) or without (presenting between 4.5 to 16 hours of symptom-onset) mechanical thrombectomy. Eligible patients would be randomised to either a zero-degree HOB or an HOB of 30-degree or more. Impact of HOB position on neurological status would be evaluated with serial NIHSS scores. Cerebral hemodynamics would be monitored by transcranial Doppler ultrasonography. Validated criteria would be used to diagnose pneumonia. Functional outcome would be measured by modified Rankin scale (mRS) where the score of 0-2 describe good functional recovery. SPSS version 20 would be used to analyse the data. The trial would provide clinical and hemodynamic data to determine the optimal HOB position in patients with large artery acute ischemic stroke.
A randomized, double blind, multicenter, multinational, placebo controlled, parallel group, single dose, adaptive phase II/III study. The study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a fixed dose of glenzocimab (1000 mg IV over 6 hrs including initial bolus of 15 minutes) on top of the best standard of care.
This is a prospective, open, single-arm, the real world of clinical trials. The researchers plan to recruit 300 eligible patients. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of butylphthalide in the treatment of ischemic stroke, and to establish a population pharmacokinetic model of butylphthalide in elderly patients to explore its blood drug concentration. Correlation with its efficacy and adverse reactions.
This is a Phase 2/3 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of DM199 in treating participants presenting within 24 hours of Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) onset for whom fibrinolytics and/or a catheter-based procedure, mechanical thrombectomy (MT), are not medically appropriate or available due to constraints of clot location, comorbidity risks, and/or time from estimated onset of stroke. The double-blinded study will be randomized, placebo controlled at up to approximately 100 sites.
In non-acute symptomatic ischemic stroke, the decision-making of medical treatment plus intracranial stenting has been more and more popular, especially in patients with intracranial large severe stenosis or occlusive artery. Nonetheless, there is no evidence from randomized controlled trials evaluating the efficacy of this treatment after the Wingspan Stent System Post Market Surveillance (WEAVE) and Wingspan One Year Vascular Imaging Events and Neurologic Outcomes (WOVEN) trial compared with medical treatment alone. This trial was to investigate whether medical treatment plus intracranial stenting would prevent the recurrent ischemic stroke in the territory of the symptomatic intracranial artery during 1-year follow-up.
The purpose of the present observational study is to remotely reevaluate the cohort of 67 sickle cell patients with transcranial Doppler-detected cerebral vasculopathy included in the national "Sickle Cell Transplant" protocol and whose 1- and 3-year results were published in JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association) in 2019 and in BHJ in 2020.
Acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion is responsible of cerebral blood flow impairment with a progressive and extensive ischemic process. Cerebral collateral circulation may preserve an ischemic penumbra that could recover providing timely reperfusion of the occluded vessel. Mechanical thrombectomy is the standard of care for anterior circulation large vessel reperfusion. Strategy to promote cerebral blood flow in collateral circulation before reperfusion is scarce and rely mainly on blood pressure maintenance. Carbon dioxide is a potent cerebral vasodilator that could enhance collateral circulation blood flow and cerebral protection before reperfusion. General anesthesia with endotracheal mechanical ventilation could be used for thrombectomy and give the opportunity to modulate and control carbon dioxide tension in the blood. This study will test the effect of moderate hypercapnia on penumbral collateral circulation before reperfusion during mechanical thrombectomy for anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke under general anesthesia.
This is a multicenter study that will be conducted at approximately 20 centers. BQ 2.0 is a wearable medical device that produces and delivers non-invasive, extremely-low-intensity and low-frequency, frequency-tuned electromagnetic fields in order to stimulate neuronal networks with the aim of reducing disability and promoting neurorecovery. In this study, BQ 2.0 is intended to reduce disability in adult patients with subacute ischemic stroke, with a moderate to severe disability which includes an upper extremity motor impairment. BQ 2.0 will be used for 9 weeks in conjunction with physical and occupational therapy (PT/OT) and periodic supervision (either remote or in person) of a trained site study team member. Treatments may be administered in multiple settings (e.g. acute care hospital (ACH) or inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRF), Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF), home or other outpatient setup). The study will enroll up to 150 adult subjects who will be randomly assigned (1:1 allocation ratio) to either active or sham study intervention using BQ 2.0.
