About this study

Official title: Nimodipine Preventing Cognitive Impairment in Ischemic Cerebrovascular Events: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind Trial (NICE)

The trial was designed to test the hypothesis that early treatment with nimodipine has a positive effect on cognition impairment after acute ischemic stroke.

Read the detailed description

656 patients diagnosed with acute cerebral ischemia disease (onset≤7d) based on ICD-10 and CT/MRI criteria, who have cognitive impairment meeting all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria, will be included and randomized into nimodipine treatment group and the controlled group.Evaluations of cognitive function will be taken at baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months.

Being tested
Nimodipine, Placebo
Keywords
Stroke, Mild cognitive impairment, Nimodipine

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Nimodipine in people with Stroke and Mild Cognitive Impairment, run by Ministry of Science and Technology of the People´s Republic of China at 1 site in China.

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 8 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Oct 2010. 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 China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Feng tao, M.D. (00861067098343, happyft@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assess the effect of nimodipine on the cognitive function after acute cerebral ischemia with ADAS-cog and MMSE at 6 months in the ITT population (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01220622, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 14 Oct 2010.
