About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Therapeutic Induced Hypertension in Patients With Acute Non-cardioembolic Ischemic Stroke: A Multicenter, Randomized, Open Label, Prospective, Phase 3 Study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the induced hypertension using phenylephrine in patients with noncardioembolic ischemic stroke.

The investigators hypothesized that phenylephrine induced-hypertension can result in good clinical response without serious complications in patients with noncardioembolic ischemic stroke.

What participants receive

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

  • PhenylephrineDrug

    Phenylephrine (0.12mg/mL) Starting dose: 10cc/hr Titration: increase 10cc/hr every 30-60min, maximum 160cc/hr rate: increase systolic blood pressure (SBP) 10-25mmHg /hr Target: initially 20% increase of initial SBP, up to improving NIHSS score or SBP 200mmHg

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary outcome

    2 points improvement in NIH stroke scale (NIHSS) between days 0 and 7

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 7

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Secondary efficacy outcome

    1. modified Rankin scale (mRS)≤ 2 at day 90
    2. modified Bathel index (mBI)≥ 90 at day 90
    3. Infarct growth or new ischemic lesion on follow-up MRI

    Measured: Day 90 for 1, 2 and Day 7 for 3

  2. Major safety outcome

    1. Symptom aggravation by intracranial hemorrhage or cerebral edema (Clinical deterioration causing an increase in the NIHSS score of more than or equal to 4 points and if the hemorrhage or edema was liley to be the cause of the clinical deterioration)
    2. Myocardial infarction
    3. death from any cause

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression by intracranial hemorrhage or cerebral edema, date of myocardial infarction, or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 months

  3. Minor safety outcome

    1. Intracranial hemorrhage on follow-up MRI
    2. Side effects including headache, arrhythmia, chest pain, dysuria, or gastrointestinal hemorrhage

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of first documented intracranial hemorrhage on follow-up MRI, or date of first documented side effects, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Phenylephrine in people with Stroke, Acute and Progressing Stroke, run by Samsung Medical Center 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 4 inclusion and 17 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 26 Apr 2017. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Oh Young Bang, MD (82-10-3410-3599, nmboy@unitel.co.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary outcome (time frame: Day 0 and Day 7). 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 NCT01600235, 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 26 Apr 2017.
