Study Overview
Brief Summary
The aim is to evaluate the impact of RPh201 on brain activity in chronic vegetative state patients. The assessment will be done using clinical measurements and functional MRI studies.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
consciousness level measured clinically
Time Frame: 6 months
Each patient will undergo a behavioral assessment (using the Coma Recovery Scale Revised) before treatment and every 2 weeks during the treatment period as well as 3 months following the end of the treatment. Complete blood counts, electrolytes, liver function tests, renal function tests and ECG will be performed every two weeks.
Secondary Outcomes
- Functional magnetic resonance imaging of cortical activity(6 months)
