About this study

Official title: Navigation Brain Stimulation (NBS) for Evaluation of the Neuroprotective Drug Efficiency in Patients After Ischemic Stroke.

Ischemic stroke (IS) causes high mortality and severe disability. To improve outcome it's very important to choose the right way of the management of the patient and an appropriate drugs.

There is a large number of the so-called neuroprotective drugs, which were effective in laboratory, but didn't show positive results in clinical studies with using traditional clinical scales scores as a primary outcome measures.

Specialists suggest, that the investigators could receive better results if the investigators change design of the studies, particularly if the investigators select more precise and sensitive method of assessment.

Aim of this study: to determine the role of navigated brain stimulation (NBS) for evaluation of the changes in the motor centers and motor tracts after administration of different cerebroprotective drugs. (The substances won't be compared to each other).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing citicoline, L-Alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine and cerebrolysin in people with Stroke, run by Clinical Institute of the Brain, Russia at 1 site in Russia.

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 3 inclusion and 10 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 23 Dec 2011. 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 Russia. 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?

MEP(motor evoked potential) parameter: motor threshold (time frame: 2 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Dec 2011.
