About this study

Neuronal injury is evident in elective craniotomy for space occupying lesions. Surgical trauma and mechanichal impact of the tumor causes neuronal injury. Neurosreroid progesterone is a neurotransmittern , trail to use in abolishing neurotoxcicty

Read the detailed description

Progesterone is a natural neurosteroid that we are trying to use to impede both direct neuronal injury cauesd by and indirectly by surgical trauma. Progesterone can decreas vasogenic brain oedema. Our primary outcome is to ameliorate microscopic cytoplasmic injury and decrease brain oedema exploited by biopsy from brain tumor interface. Exclusion criteria demonstratd as refusal to participate in the trial , emergency craniotomy, recurrent brain tumor.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Progesteron in people with Diffuse Traumatic Cerebral Edema, run by Minia University at 2 sites in Egypt.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 4 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 2 sites in Egypt. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Mina Raouf, MD (01015752424, drmina2015@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With craniotomy-Related Adverse Events (time frame: 3 months). 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 4 Jun 2020.
