About this study

Official title: Analyzing the Pharmacodynamic Substances and the Effects of Yiqihuayu Decotion for Acute Ischemic Stroke (PHYSIS): A Non-randomized, Controlled Trial

The main purposes of this trial are to analyze the pharmacodynamic substances and the effects of Yiqihuayu Decotion for acute ischemic stroke. The trial is a non-randomized, controlled clinical trial.

Read the detailed description

Yiqihuayu Decotion is effective for acute ischemic stroke clinically, but there is lack of sufficient and reasonable explanation of its intervention effects currently. In order to further clarify the main pharmacodynamic substances of Yiqihuayu Decotion in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke, this study intends to carry out a non-randomized, controlled clinical trial. The primary hypothesis is that, compared with the control group, Yiqihuayu Decotion will produce serial changes in plasma metabolites at pre-dose and 9 days, as well as urine metabolites at pre-dose, 8 days, 9 days and 10 days. The serial changes may be the potential support to explain the intervention effect of Yiqihuayu Decotion. After enrollment, all participants will undergo a 2-day Traditional Chinese Medcine washout period to ensure that the results of pharmacodynamic substances will not be disturbed.

Control groupNo interventionNo Intervention: Control group Subjects will receive guidelines-based standard care. Interventions: Other: Standard care (e.g. antiplatelet drugs and statins)

What is being measured

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

  1. Differences in Caffeic acid, Amygdalin, Paeoniflorin between experimental group and control group.

    Differences in the content of Caffeic acid, Amygdalin, Paeoniflorin in plasma and urine samples between experimental group and control group.

    Measured: 3 days, 8 days, 9 days, 10 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The change of neurological deficits

    The change of neurological deficits is measured by the change of National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, ranging from 0 (best score) to 42 (worst score).

    Measured: 1 day, 3 days, 9 days

  2. The proportion of life dependency

    The proportion of life dependency is defined as Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score 0-2. The mRS score ranges from 0 (best score) to 6 (worst score).

    Measured: 1 day, 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Yiqihuayu Decotion in people with Ischemic Stroke, Acute, run by Ying Gao.

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 8 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 29 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 combined 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.

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 Shi Shi (13021651656, xinyishi@bucm.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Differences in Caffeic acid, Amygdalin, Paeoniflorin between experimental group and control group. (time frame: 3 days, 8 days, 9 days, 10 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 29 Sep 2022.
