About this study

Official title: Cyclosporin A Combined to Intravenous Thrombolysis. Multicenter Randomized Placebo-controlled

The main objective of this study is to determine whether a single injection of CsA after intravenous thrombolysis can significantly decreased the volume of cerebral infarction at day 30 ± 15 assessed with Flair MRI.

Secondary objectives are to determine whether a single injection of CsA after intravenous thrombolysis is safe and effective regarding to death and disability.

Conditions
Stroke
Being tested
Ciclosprin A, Injectable Saline Solution.
Keywords

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Ciclosprin ADrug

    The dose in this study was 2 mg / kg, administered within 15 min after beginning of thrombolysis. The treatment of the study consists of a single bolus injection. This dose was chosen according to the results of tolerance in myocardial infarction and unknown pharmacodynamic and safety data

  • Injectable Saline Solution.Drug

    Saline Solution is administered once 15 min after thrombolysis.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. to determine whether a single injection of CsA after intravenous thrombolysis significantly decreased the volume of cerebral infarction at day 30 ± 15 in the T2-weighted Flair MRI.

    Volume of cerebral infarction at day 30 ± 15 in the T2-weighted MRI Flair will be measured by manuel contouring by two independent radiologists uninformed of clinical and therapeutic data and therapeutic

    Measured: at day 30 ± 15 in the T2-weighted Flair MRI.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. to determine whether a single injection of CsA after intravenous thrombolysis, is well tolerated and reduces deaths and disability in patients.

    Secondary endpoints include clinical scores: NIHSS , mRS, Death, SAE (within neurological worsening of more than 4 points on the NIHSS).

    Measured: on day 1, J7, J30, J90

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ciclosprin A and Injectable Saline Solution. in people with Stroke, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

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 7 inclusion and 25 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 28 May 2019. 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 France. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

to determine whether a single injection of CsA after intravenous thrombolysis significantly decreased the volume of cerebral infarction at day 30 ± 15 in the T2-weighted Flair MRI. (time frame: at day 30 ± 15 in the T2-weighted Flair MRI.). 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 NCT01527240, 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 28 May 2019.
