  • Patients will have sustained a severe closed head injury within one to four months.
  • Patients will have remained in a vegetative or minimally conscious state between one and four months after injury.
  • Patients will have reached a stabilized clinical state prior to admission to the study (e.g. afebrile, haemodynamic and electrolyte stability).
  • Patients will have a mean DRS score between 17 and 29, when measured twice a day over two consecutive days.
  • Informed consent from a legal representative will have been obtained, according to the procedures outlined in Section 8.1.
  • Patients who, according to the investigator's opinion, are likely to be available for the required 180-day follow up evaluation.

排除标准

  • Patients who are not clinically stable at the time of entry into the study (infections, cardiovascular decompensation, etc.)
  • Patients who require mechanical respiratory assistance.
  • Patients who show signs of progressive neurological deterioration post-TBI.
  • Patients with a known history of medically relevant substance abuse.
  • Patients with history of cardiac disease.
  • Patients who suffered an anoxic event.
  • Patients who have received an investigational drug within 30 days of the study.
  • Patients who have previously used NH001, other dopaminergic agent (e.g. levodopa, amantadine, domperidone) or any known neuro-stimulant (e.g. methylphenidate, amphetamines, atomoxetine, modafinil) within the last 7 days days.
  • Patients who are receiving dopamine blockers (e.g. risperidone, haloperidol, chlorpromazine, flupenthixol, clozapine, olanzapine, quetiapine)
  • Patients who are receiving drugs of the 5HT3 antagonist class, including, for example, ondansetron, granisetron, dolasetron, palonosetron and alosetron.
  • Patients who are receiving tricyclic antidepressants drugs
  • Patients who are receiving type I antiarrhythmics (i.e. quinidine).
  • Patients who have a known history of cardiac arrhythmias or congenital QTc prolongation.
  • Patients who have a known history of previous neurological functional impairment (e.g. stroke, spinal cord injury, dementia, epilepsy, psychiatric diseases).
  • Patients who experienced seizures within the first week post injury or have ongoing seizures.
  • Patients receiving prophylactic anti-convulsive medications.
  • Patients with known allergies to apomorphine, morphine, sulfites or trimethobenzamide.
  • Patients who are receiving nitrates or other vasodilators.
  • Patients receiving CNS acting agents such as barbiturates, morphine, belladonna, opiates.
  • For male patients, patients who are receiving trazodone or any other drug that is known to produce priapism.
