About this study

AngongNiuhuang pill has obvious effects on the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular, especially the cerebral vessels. Pharmacological experiments confirmed that AngongNiuhuang pill can protect blood-brain barrier, reduce capillary permeability, improve the tolerance of cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, improve oxidative stress injury, thus protecting brain tissue. Clinical studies have also confirmed that AngongNiuhuang pill can increase the GCS score, reduce coma, improve nerve function defect and promote nerve function recovery. The primary purpose of this trial was to evaluate the effect of AngongNiuhuang pill and placebo on the improvement of life function in patients with ischemic stroke at 90 days in acute phase.

Read the detailed description

This trial is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo parallel controlled, multiple-center trial. A total of approximately 100 patients (18 years ≤age ≤80 years) within 24 hours of symptom onset of acute ischemic stroke, who shows NIHSS from 5-20 points. Patients fulfilling all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be randomized 1:1 into two groups after offering informed content: 1) one group will receive AngongNiuhuang pill 1 pill 1 times/day for 5-day; 2) the other group will receive Placebo of AngongNiuhuang pill 1 pill 1 times/day for 5-day.The primary purpose of this trial was to evaluate the effect of AngongNiuhuang pill and placebo on the improvement of life function in patients with ischemic stroke at 90 days in acute phase. The study consists of five visits including the day of randomization, 2-6 days, monitor daily temperature, 7 days when the therapy is done, 30 days, and 90 days when the follow-up is finished. Demographic information, symptoms and signs, laboratory test, neuro-imaging assessment neurological function rating scale will be recorded during the program. The improvement of life function will be assessed by Modified Rankin Scale(namely score=0-2). The trial is anticipated to last from July 2018 to December 2019 with 100 subjects recruited form 5 centers in China. All the related investigative organization and individuals will obey the Declaration of Helsinki and Chinese GCP standard. A Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) will regularly monitor safety during the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. The proportion of patients achieve favorable clinical outcomes assessed by Modified Rankin Scale(namely score=0-2)

    Modified Rankin Scale score changes (continuous) and dichotomized at percentage with score 0-2 vs. 3-6 at the 90 days follow-up.

    Measured: 90days

  2. Severity Adverse Event

    The percentage of the Severity Adverse Events within the 90 days of the therapy.

    Measured: 90days

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. The proportion of patients achieve favorable clinical outcomes assessed by Modified Rankin Scale(namely score=0-2)

    Modified Rankin Scale score changes (continuous) and dichotomized at percentage.

    Measured: 7days, 30days

  2. Neurological recovery

    The recovery of neurological deficits assessed by the change of the 7days, 30 days and the 90 days NIHSS to the baseline NIHSS.

    Measured: 7 days, 30 days,90 days

  3. Barthel Index

    Change in the score of the Barthel Index.(The Barthel Index (BI) measures 10 basic aspects of self-care and physical dependency, including 10 subscales: feeding, bathing, grooming, dressing, bowels, bladder, toilet use, transfers, mobility, and stairs. Every subscale ranges from 0 to 10. Its total score range is 0-100. A normal score is 100, and lower scores indicate increasing disability.)

    Measured: 30 days, 90 days

  4. Recurrent stroke, death and other vascular events

    The quantity of patients who has recurrent stroke, death and other vascular events.

    Measured: 30 days, 90 days

  5. Changes of biomarker (hs-CRP)

    Evaluation of the change in (centralization blood sample determination).

    Measured: 7 days

  6. Changes of biomarker (IL-10)

    Evaluation of the change in IL-10 (centralization blood sample determination).

    Measured: 7days

  7. Changes of biomarker (TNF-α)

    Evaluation of the change in TNF-α level (centralization blood sample determination).

    Measured: 7days

  8. Adverse Events

    The percentage of the Adverse Events during the therapy.

    Measured: 7 days, 90 days

  9. Severity Adverse Event

    The percentage of the Severity Adverse Events during the therapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing AngongNiuhuang pill and Standard treatment in people with Acute Ischemic Stroke, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital 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 5 inclusion and 14 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 7 Nov 2018. 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 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 Shengde Li, MD (86-17896002828, lishengde.medicine@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The proportion of patients achieve favorable clinical outcomes assessed by Modified Rankin Scale(namely score=0-2) (time frame: 90days). The study lists 2 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 7 Nov 2018.
