Filter by:Phase III Clinical Trial of GD-11 for Injection in the Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke - A Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel, Placebo-Controlled Phase III Clinical Study with the primary objective of evaluation of the efficacy and safety of GD-11 for injection in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke patients within 48 hours. The subject has a clinical diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke, within 48 hours from stroke onset to start of study treatment, with a National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) between 6 and 20, had a total score of upper and lower limbs on motor deficits ≥ 2. The primary outcome is the proportion of subjects with mRS score ≤ 1 at 90 days after treatment.
The principal aims of the clinical investigation involve assessing the safety profile and MTD of human forebrain neural progenitor cells (hNPC01) administered at escalated doses via single-dose intracerebral injection to subjects with stable chronic ischemic stroke.
The DOWN-SUITE study is multicenter, randomised, controlled, open-label clinical trial with blinded outcome assessment comparing collateral status in patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with an in-hospital application of head down tilt -10° to -15° (HDT15) versus usual positioning (0° to +30°) before endovascular mechanical thrombectomy. This study will involve adult patients who are eligible for mechanical thrombectomy and who have acute ischemic stroke due to left or right middle cerebral artery occlusion (M1 segment). The investigators hypothesise that HDT15, applied in acute ischemic stroke patients with a large vessel occlusion, will improve collateral circulation, prolong the survival of the ischemic penumbra and improve the clinical benefit from mechanical thrombectomy compared with standard of care (usual positioning 0° to +30°).
The purpose of this study is to identify functional vascular changes and clinical factors correlated with the occurrence of short- or medium-term hand ischaemia after arteriovenous fistula creation.
Critical Limb Ischaemia (CLI), the final stage of arterial disease, is a therapeutic emergency whose prognosis depends largely on the time taken to diagnose it. The growing prevalence of this condition and the associated healthcare costs make it an important public health objective. Diagnostic criteria for Critical Limb Ischaemia differ between learned societies and countries. Its diagnosis is most frequently based on the combination of a clinical criterion (ischaemic decubitus pain and/or necrotic wounds, with a time to onset > 2 weeks) and a haemodynamic criterion (ankle systolic pressure (ASP) < 50mmHg or toe systolic pressure (TSP) < 30 mmHg or transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TCPO2) < 30 mmHg). Recent studies have highlighted the importance of pulsed Doppler flow analysis in quantifying arteriopathy of the lower limbs, both by systematically analysing flow modulation and by measuring the systolic rise time of distal arteries (dorsal artery of the foot and lateral plantar artery). The main aim of our study is therefore to validate a reliable and accessible diagnostic tool for screening patients suffering from CLI so that they can be referred to a reference centre as early as possible.
Evidence for the usefulness of the defibrillator in cases of preserved left ventricular ejection fraction and well-tolerated ventricular tachycardia (without cardiocirculatory arrest or syncope) is lacking, as no previous trials have included such patients. Additionally, sudden death in this particular population is low compared to other subgroups of patients with malignant ventricular arrhythmias. On the other hand, numerous recent retrospective data show that ablation of ventricular tachycardia can reduce mortality, and also clearly reduces the number of recurrences in prospective studies. Finally, a very low rate of sudden death was observed in a multicenter European retrospective study that we conducted, including patients with well-tolerated ventricular tachycardia in structural heart disease with minimally impaired ejection fraction and benefiting from ablation without implantation of defibrillator.
The goal of this observational study is to use a genetic test to help doctors prescribe the most effective medications after a patient has a stroke. One type of stroke is caused by a blood clot in brain vessels. After a patient has this kind of stroke, they are often given a combination of two blood thinners to prevent it from happening again. One of these blood thinners, called clopidogrel, is less effective in some people due to differences in their DNA. Clopidogrel needs to be activated by a specific enzyme in the body known as CYP2C19. This enzyme does not work as well if there are variations in the section of DNA that tells the body how to make CYP2C19. It can be predicted who has less CYP2C19 enzyme activity with a genetic test. If these patients are given a different blood thinner, it can reduce their risk of another stroke compared to if they are given clopidogrel. The main questions this study aims to answer are: - What are the best strategies to implement this genetic test in the hospital? - Does implementation of this genetic test change providers' decisions on which medication to prescribe after a participant has a stroke? Participants in this study will have a genetic test done onsite looking for variations in the section of DNA that tells the body how to make CYP2C19. This genetic test will only look for 11 known variations; the genome will not be sequenced. The investigators will alert the doctor of the patient's test results so they can prescribe the appropriate blood thinner. Through this, the investigators will learn the best practices for successful implementation of this genetic test.
The objective of the study is to evaluate early safety and effectiveness of the percutaneous deep foot venous arterialization performed in clinical practice, in an unselected population of patients with "no-option" CLTI.
The aim of this randomised controlled trial (RCT) nested in a prospective cohort, is to investigate the superior effect of late-phase robot-assisted versus standard training on motor function, physical function, fatigue, and quality of life in a moderately-to-severely impaired chronic stroke population following subacute rehabilitation. The main hypothesis of the study is: Robot-assisted training has a superior effect on motor function (Fugl-Meyer Lower Extremity Assessment; primary outcome), physical function, fatigue, and quality of life in moderately-to-severely impaired chronic stroke-affected individuals in comparison to standard training.
A prospective, single-center study would be carried out in the Neurology Department of the University Hospital "Dr. José Eleuterio González" in order to analyze the effect of cerebrolysin on the blood-brain-barrier in patients with ischemic stroke with personal history of type-2 diabetes
