Microvascular Injury and Blood-brain Barrier Dysfunction as Novel Biomarkers and Targets for Treatment in Traumatic Brain Injury

Traumatic Brain Injury Clinical Trial

Official title:
Microvascular Injury and Blood-brain Barrier Dysfunction as Novel Biomarkers and Targets for Treatment in Traumatic Brain Injury

Clinical Trial Summary

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability around the world. The social and economic burden of TBI is tremendous and the cost of TBI is estimated at $1 billion per year in Canada- $650 million in care and $580 million in lost productivity. Novel interventions aimed at TBI-linked molecular targets have been successful in limiting injury and improving neurologic recovery in animal models, thus providing compelling evidence that effective intervention is possible after injury. This study proposes to investigate traumatic microvascular injury (TMI) and specifically blood-brain barrier dysfunction (BBBD) as a candidate biomarker and therapeutic target in TBI.
