Xingnaojing for Mild-to-severe Acute Ischemic Stroke

Phase 4
Conditions
Acute Ischemic Stroke
Stroke, Acute
Stroke, Ischemic
Interventions
Drug: Xingnaojing placebo injection
Other: Standard care
Registration Number
NCT04150835
Lead Sponsor
Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing
Brief Summary

The main purpose of this trial is to determine whether Xingnaojing, intravenously administered within 24 hours of symptom onset, improves the daily living ability of acute ischemic stroke at 90 days.

Detailed Description

The XMAS-2 study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. The primary hypothesis of this trial is that Xingnaojing will improve the daily living ability of acute ischemic stroke at 90 days. Xingnaojing will be compared to placebo, combined with guidelines-based standard care in patients with acute ischemic stroke within 24 hours of symptom onset. All participants will have a National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)entry score of 4-25. Participants who have planned or already received the intravenous thrombolysis or endovascular treatment will be excluded. The primary outcome will be determined at 90 days.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Diagnosis of Acute ischemic stroke;
  • Symptom onset within 24 hours;
  • Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 80 years;

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The proportion of patients independent.90 days

Proportion of patients independent is defined as Modified Rankin Scale score of 0, 1, or 2.The Modified Rankin Scale Score ranges from 0 (best score) to 6 (worst score).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The proportion of patients independent at 30 days.30 days

The proportion of patients independent will be evaluated by mRS at 30 days.The mRS score ranges from 0 (best score) to 6 (worst score).

The recurrence rate of cerebrovascular eventsWithin 90 days

The recurrence rate of cerebrovascular events within 90 days.

Safety end points10 days

Number of patients with any adverse events, results of electrocardiography, vital signs and laboratory tests (complete blood count, chemistry and urinalysis).

Early neurological deterioration.Baseline and 3 days

The early neurologic deterioration is defined as an increase of 1 points or more in the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score between baseline and 3 days. The NIHSS score ranges from 0 (best score) to 42 (worst score).

Neurological impairment evaluated by National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS).Baseline and 10 days

Comparison of the change in the NIHSS scores from baseline to 10 days in the two groups.The NIHSS score ranges from 0 (best score) to 42 (worst score).

Patient reported outcome10 days

Patient reported outcome (PRO) scale of stroke at 10 days.The PRO score ranges from 36(best score) to 180 (worst score).

State of consciousness48 hours and 7 days

The state of consciousness evaluated by Glasgow Coma Scale at 7 days. The Glasgow score ranges from 3(worst score) to 15 (best score).

Activities of daily living30 days and 90 days

Activities of daily living will be measured by Barthel Index score at 30 days and 90 days.The Barthel Index score ranges from 0 (worst score) to 100 (best score).

Stroke related deaths and deaths from any causeWithin 10 days and 90 days

Stroke related deaths and deaths from any cause within 10 days and 90 days after symptom onset.
