About this study

Official title: A PhaseⅡ, Multicenter, Prospective Randomised, Open Blinded Endpoint Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Injection for Recombinant Human Tissue Plasminogen Kinase Derivative in Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke.

The primary purpose of this trial is to compare the efficacy of different doses of investigator product and comparator product in patients with acute ischemic stroke in 4.5 Hours after stroke onset, and provide a basis of drug administration for phase Ⅲ clinical trial.

The secondary purpose of this trial is to compare the safety of different dose of investigational product and comparator product in patients with acute ischemic stroke in 4.5 hours afterstroke onset .

Read the detailed description

This study is a multicenter, prospective randomised, open blinded endpoint study.

Patients with acute ischemic stroke need to undergo CT or MRI to exclude intracranial hemorrhage and perform NIHSS score before enrollment. Subjects who have passed the screening criteria according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to low-dose test drugs, high-dose test drugs or reference drugs for thrombolytic therapy at a ratio of 1:1:1. The random stratification factor is the thrombolysis time window ("≤3h" vs "3~4.5h").

The start of administration of the study drug is recorded as 0h, CT or MRI and NIHSS score, laboratory test, and electrocardiogram were performed at 24 hours; NIHSS score was performed at 72 hours; NIHSS score,laboratory test and electrocardiogram were performed on the14th day(the start of administration is recorded as Day 1 ,then the 14th day after administration should be recorded as Day 15 ); mRS score and Barthel index score were performed on the 30th day (Day 31); mRS score and Barthel index score were performed on the 90th day (Day 91).

What is being measured

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

  1. The proportion of subjects with NIHSS score ≤1 or the decrease of 4 points or more from the baseline on the 14th day after treatment;

    The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) is a 15-item neurologic examination stroke scale used to evaluate the effect of acute cerebral infarction on the levels of consciousness, language, neglect, visual-field loss, extraocular movement, motor strength, ataxia, dysarthria, and sensory loss. A trained observer rates the patent's ability to answer questions and perform activities. Ratings for each item are scored with 3 to 5 grades with 0 as normal, and there is an allowance for untestable items. The range of scores is from 0 (normal) to 42 (profound effect of stroke on patient).

    Measured: on the 14th day after treatment

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The proportion of subjects with NIHSS score ≤1 or the decrease of 4 points or more from the baseline at 72 hours after treatment;

    Proportion of patients with ≥4 point reduction in NIHSS or reaching 0-1 at 3 days (favourable clinical response) adjusted for baseline NIHSS and age.

    Measured: at 72 hours after treatment;

  2. The proportion of subjects with mRS score of 0-1 on the 30th day and 90th day after treatment;

    The Modified Rankin Score (mRS) is a 6 point disability scale with possible scores ranging from 0-5. A separate category of 6 is usually added for patients who expire. Standardized interviews to obtain a mRS score are recommended at 3 months (90 days) following hospital discharge.

    The scale runs from 0-5, running from perfect health without symptoms to Severe disability 0. -No symptoms.

    1. -No significant disability. Able to carry out all usual activities, despite some symptoms.

    2 .-Slight disability. Able to look after own affairs without assistance, but unable to carry out all previous activities.

    1. -Moderate disability. Requires some help, but able to walk unassisted.
    2. -Moderately severe disability. Unable to attend to own bodily needs without assistance, and unable to walk unassisted.
    3. -Severe disability. Requires constant nursing care and attention, bedridden, incontinent.

    Measured: on the 30th day and 90th day after treatment;

  3. The proportion of subjects with mRS score of 0-2 on the 30th day and 90th day after treatment;

    Measured: on the 30th day and 90th day after treatment;

  4. Continuous changes of mRS scores on the 30th and 90th days after treatment;

    Measured: on the 30th and 90th days after treatment;

  5. The proportion of subjects with Barthel index score≥95 on the 30th day and 90th day after treatment;

    The Barthel Index of Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) measures functional disability by quantifying patient performance in 10 activities of daily life. These activities can be grouped according to self-care (feeding, grooming, bathing, dressing, bowel and bladder care, and toilet use) and mobility (ambulation, transfers, and stair climbing). 5-point increments are used in scoring, with a maximal score of 100 indicating that a patient is fully independent in physical functioning, and a lowest score of 0 representing a totally dependent bed-ridden state.

    Measured: on the 30th day and 90th day after treatment;

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing r-PA and Alteplase for Injection in people with Acute Ischemic Stroke, run by Angde Biotech Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. 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 20 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 22 Jul 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 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact YongJun Wang, Professor (+8613911172565, yongjunwang1962@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The proportion of subjects with NIHSS score ≤1 or the decrease of 4 points or more from the baseline on the 14th day after treatment; (time frame: on the 14th day after treatment). 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 NCT04028518, 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.
