What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of subjects who have the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 2 or less on Day 90

    Modified Rankin Scale is an index that evaluates the patient's global functional outcome according to the independence of daily life and the degree of need for help from others. It is evaluated in seven stages (0 to 6 points), from asymptomatic to death. The higher score means a worse outcome, and 3 to 6 points are considered to be poor functional outcome.

    Measured: Day 90

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. The change from baseline in Modified Rankin Score (mRS) up to Day 90

    Modified Rankin Scale is an index that evaluates the patient's global functional outcome according to the independence of daily life and the degree of need for help from others. It is evaluated in seven stages (0 to 6 points), from asymptomatic to death. The higher score means a worse outcome, and 3 to 6 points are considered to be poor functional outcome.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 3, Day 7, Day 14(or discharge), Day 30 and Day 90

  2. The change from baseline in Modified Barthel Index (mBI) up to Day 90.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 3, Day 7, Day 14(or discharge), Day 30 and Day 90

  3. The change from baseline in EuroQol five dimensions questionnaire(EQ-5D) up to Day 90

    Measured: Baseline, Day 3, Day 7, Day 14(or discharge), Day 30 and Day 90

  4. The change from baseline in Korean Mini-Mental State Examination(KMMSE) up to Day 90

    Measured: Baseline, Day 3, Day 7, Day 14(or discharge), Day 30 and Day 90

  5. The change from baseline in Global Deterioration Scale (GDS) up to Day 90

    The GDS is a staging scale indicating deterioration in dementia, The scale details clinical descriptions of seven major distinguishable stages, ranging from normal cognition to severe dementia.

    Stages 1 - 3 are the pre dementia stages. Stages 4 -7 reflect the stages of dementia. People beginning with stage 5 are no longer survive without assistance.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 3, Day 7, Day 14(or discharge), Day 30 and Day 90

  6. The change from baseline in National institutes of health stroke scale(NIHSS) up to Day 90

    It will be evaluated in patients with cerebral infarction.

    The NIHSS is a tool used by healthcare providers to objectively quantify the impairment caused by a stroke.

    The NIHSS is composed of 11 items, each of which scores a specific ability between a 0 and 4.

    For each item, a score of 0 typically indicates normal function in that specific ability, while a higher score is indicative of some level of impairment.

    The individual scores from each item are summed in order to calculate a patient's total NIHSS score.

    The maximum possible score is 42, with the minimum score being a 0.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 3, Day 7, Day 14(or discharge), Day 30 and Day 90

  7. The change from baseline in Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS) up to Day 90

    It will be evaluated in patients with cerebral hemorrhage. The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is used to objectively describe the extent of impaired consciousness in all types of acute medical and trauma patients.

    The Glasgow Coma Scale divides into three parameters: best eye response (E), best verbal response (V) and best motor response (M). The levels of response in the components of the Glasgow Coma Scale are 'scored' from 1, for no response, up to normal values of 4 (Eye-opening response) 5 ( Verbal response) and 6 (Motor response) The total Coma Score thus has values between three and 15, three being the worst and 15 being the highest.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 3, Day 7, Day 14(or discharge), Day 30 and Day 90

  8. The odds ratio of the factors which contribute to a mRS score to be less than or equal to 2 on Day 90

    The factors, such as sex, age, disease subtype and severity, investigational product compliance, which might impact the mRS score to be less than or equal to 2 will be analyzed.

    Measured: Day 90

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Naloxone hydrochloride 5.0mg/5ml and Sodium Chloride 45mg/5ml in people with Stroke, Acute, run by Samjin Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. 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 5 inclusion and 18 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 14 Aug 2023. 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Percentage of subjects who have the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 2 or less on Day 90 (time frame: Day 90). 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 14 Aug 2023.
