About this study

Official title: A Multi-Center, Double Blind, Randomized and Non-Inferiority Clinical Study of Cilnidipine to Compare the Effects on Cerebral Blood Flow With Losartan in Patients With Ischemic Stroke Hypertension

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of cilnidipine (a calcium channel blocker) and losartan (an angiotensin II receptor blocker) on cerebral blood flow (CBF) and blood pressure in hypertensive patients with a previous ischemic stroke.

Read the detailed description

Design: Multi-center, randomized, double-blind, active control, titrated dose, non-inferiority trial

Population Studied: We will prospectively recruit 250 hypertensive patients who had ischemic stroke 2 or more weeks previously and were admitted at 7 centers in the Seoul metropolitan area in South Korea.

Interventions: After a 2-week washout period, all patients will undergo baseline 99mTc-HMPAO single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), blood pressure evaluation, NIHSS examination, and laboratory test prior to treatment. The patients will be randomized to receive either cilnidipine 10-20mg or losartan 50-100mg once daily for 4 weeks with a target systolic blood pressure of < 140mmHg and diastolic blood pressure of < 90mmHg. After 4-week treatment, all patients will receive follow-up SPECT and blood pressure evaluation. For the quantitative CBF analysis, SPECT will be performed with a single machine in one center.

Outcome Measures: Primary outcome measure is the percentile change of global CBF on SPECT between pre- and post-treatments. Secondary outcome measures include the percentile change of regional CBF, the proportion of patients less than 8.6% decrease of global CBF, and the change of NIHSS score.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing cilnidipine in people with Hypertension and Stroke, run by Boryung Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Dec 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the changes of global cerebral blood flow (time frame: from screnning to weeks 4). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Dec 2008.
