Dengzhanxixin Injection for Acute Ischemic Stroke Receiving Reperfusion Therapy

Phase 2

Active, not recruiting

• Conditions: Acute Ischemic Stroke
• Interventions: Drug: Placebo injection; Drug: Dengzhanxixin Injection

• Registration Number: NCT05700097
• Lead Sponsor: Beijing Tiantan Hospital

Brief Summary

To assess the Efficacy and Safety of Dengzhanxixin Injection in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke Receiving Reperfusion Therapy.

Detailed Description

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Dengzhanxixin at different doses of 80ml/day, 40 ml/day, or placebo within 24 hours after the onset of ischemic stroke. The primary objective of this study is the proportion of subjects with excellent outcomes defined as mRS (0-1) among the three treatment groups at 90 days.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Primary Efficacy Outcome	90 days	Proportion of subjects of excellent outcome defined as modified Rankin Scale (mRS) (0-1) at 90 days. mRS is a 7 grade scale from 0 to 6, where 0 is the best and 6 is the worst outcome.
Primary Safety Outcome	90 days	Proportion of patients with adverse events at 90 days.
