About this study
Official title: A Phase Ib/II Dose-finding Study of DDFPe in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke
Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in the United States and is the leading cause of long term disability. Distinct geographic disparities in stroke mortality, with highest rates in the southeast United States including Arkansas, are known as the "stroke belt." There the average stroke mortality is ≈20% to 40% higher than the rest of the nation. Stroke is the leading cause of serious long-term disability. Between 2012 and 2030, disability and medical costs related to stroke are projected to triple, from $71.6 billion to $184.1 billion, with the majority of the projected increase in costs arising from those 65 to 79 years of age.
There are two main forms of stroke, ischemic and hemorrhagic. An ischemic stroke occurs in 85% of cases and is caused by cerebral vessel occlusion, obstructing blood flow to a portion of the brain. Currently, the only approved therapies for acute ischemic stroke are IV tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), a thrombolytic agent that clears the thrombus within the blood vessel, or intra-arterial catheter thrombectomy. Despite the availability of therapy, it reaches only approximately 7% of ischemic stroke victims in the United States5. Delay beyond the effective time window for therapy is a common reason for failure.
To reduce the devastating impact of stroke on individuals and society, the investigators continue to seek ways to improve functional recovery and limit ischemic damage in stroke patients. The potential neuroprotective agent, dodecafluoropentane emulsion (DDFPe) has recently shown strong positive effects in pre-clinical animal models of acute ischemic stroke6-11. Other perfluorocarbons have been tested in humans as potential neuroprotectants and blood substitutes yet none have been successful.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of DDFPe Evaluated by Number of Dose Limiting Toxicities
The primary objective of this study is to establish the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of DDFPe given intravenously at intervals of 90 ± 10 minutes x 3 doses within 12 hours after subjects have had a documented Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS). The algorithm for determining the MTD is based on the number of subjects who experience a Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) in each cohort, as defined in the clinical protocol. If three or more subjects who received DDFPe in an 8 subject cohort experience a DLT, the MTD will be determined to have been exceeded and further enrollment in the cohort as well as dose escalation will stop.
Measured: 12 hours after subjects have had a documented Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS)
Secondary outcomes (2)
NIHSS Assessment
The NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS) is an assessment tool that provides a quantitative measure of stroke-related neurologic deficit. The NIHSS is a 15-item neurologic examination. Ratings for each item are scored on a 3- to 5-point scale with 0 as normal. Scores range from 0 to 42, with higher scores indicating greater severity.
Measured: NIHSS scores were recorded at outside hospitals when appropriate and also at the study center as inside baseline NIHSS score. Repeat NIHSS scores were recorded at 2, 3.5, and 7.5 hours after drug injection and on discharge.
Modified Rankin Scale (mRS)
The modified Rankin Scale is a measure of the degree of disability in patients who have had a stroke with 0 being no symptoms at all to 6 being death. Thus, a higher score indicates greater severity.
Measured: mRS values were obtained on Day 7 or Day of Discharge, Day 30 and Day 90.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in the United States and is the leading cause of long term disability. Distinct geographic disparities in stroke mortality, with highest rates in the southeast United States including Arkansas, are known as the "stroke belt." There the average stroke mortality is ≈20% to 40% higher than the rest of the nation. Stroke is the leading cause of serious long-term disability. Between 2012 and 2030, disability and medical costs related to stroke are projected to triple, from $71.6 billion to $184.1 billion, with the majority of the projected increase in costs arising from those 65 to 79 years of age.
There are two main forms of stroke, ischemic and hemorrhagic. An ischemic stroke occurs in 85% of cases and is caused by cerebral vessel occlusion, obstructing blood flow to a portion of the brain. Currently, the only approved therapies for acute ischemic stroke are IV tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), a thrombolytic agent that clears the thrombus within the blood vessel, or intra-arterial catheter thrombectomy.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing 0.05 mL/kg DDFPe, 0.10 mL/kg DDFPe and 0.17 mL/kg DDFPe in people with Ischemic Stroke, run by NuvOx LLC at 1 site in United States.
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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Sep 2021. 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 United States. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Sep 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of DDFPe Evaluated by Number of Dose Limiting Toxicities (time frame: 12 hours after subjects have had a documented Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS)). 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 NCT02963376, 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 24 Sep 2021.
