What is being measured

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

  1. Chage of mRS(The Modified Rankin Scale) score; 0(better) to 6(worse)

    Change of mRS score 7 days and 28 days after IP administration compared with baseline(before IP administration)

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Chage and improvement of mRS(The Modified Rankin Scale) score; 0(better) to 6(worse)

    Change and improvment of mRS score 14 days and 28 days after IP administration compared with baseline(before IP administration)

    Measured: 28 days

  2. Chage and improvement of Glasgow coma scale(GCS); 3(worse) to 15(better)

    Change and improvment of Glasgow coma scale(GCS) 7 days, 14 days and 28 days after IP administration compared with baseline(before IP administration)

    Measured: 28 days

  3. Chage and improvement of Clinical Global Impression Scale-Severity; 1(better) to 7(worse)

    Change and improvment of Clinical Global Impression Scale-Severity 7 days, 14 days and 28 days after IP administration compared with baseline(before IP administration)

    Measured: 28 days

  4. Chage and improvement of Clinical Global Impression Scale-Impovement; 1(better) to 7(worse)

    Change and improvment of Clinical Global Impression Scale-Improvement 7 days, 14 days and 28 days after IP administration compared with baseline(before IP administration)

    Measured: 28 days

  5. Chage and improvement of CASE(Clinical Assessment scale of Encephalitis) score; 0(better) to 27(worse)

    Change and improvment of CASE score 7 days, 14 days and 28 days after IP administration compared with baseline(before IP administration)

    Measured: 28 days

  6. The relationship

    The relationship between neurological scale

    Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Immunoglobulin G in people with Autoimmune Encephalitis, run by Green Cross Corporation 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 10 inclusion and 11 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 30 Jun 2020. 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 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?

Chage of mRS(The Modified Rankin Scale) score; 0(better) to 6(worse) (time frame: 28 days). 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 30 Jun 2020.
