About this study

Official title: Effects of Human Urinary Kallidinogenase on Early Improvement and Functional Outcomes in Acute Ischemic Stroke: a Multicenter, Randomized, Open Label, Blinded-endpoint, Controlled Study (TK-SPEED)

The primary purpose of this trial is to evaluate the effects of Human Urinary Kallidinogenase on improvement of neurological outcome, and early cerebral perfusion in acute ischemic stroke.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicentre, randomized, open label, blinded-endpoint trial that aims to investigate the effects of Human Urinary Kallidinogenase treatment on neurological outcomes, early cerebral perfusion in patients with acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke. Patients in intervention group will be given 0.15 peptide nucleic acids (PNA) Human Urinary Kallidinogenase concentrated solution for intravenous injection once a day for 10 days continuously, and those in the control group will be given conventional therapy. Both groups of patients will be on standard stroke care. In this study, patients who were eligible to the inclusion criteria and ineligible to the exclusion criteria will be randomly assigned into two groups by a 1:1 ratio after the informed consent form (ICF) was received. The total sample size will be 540. All patients will be followed up for 90 days. The primary outcome is the proportion of modified Rankin Scale 0-2. Besides, the investigators aimed to use computed tomography perfusion (CTP) evaluate the differences of ischemic penumbra volume and regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) before and after treatment between intervention group and control group.

Furthermore, this study adopts adaptive design, prospectively stating interim analyses with specified stopping rules, which allow for the possibility of the study to terminate early based on either determination of study success or of the futility to continue further enrollment.

What is being measured

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

  1. The proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-2 at day 90

    The proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-2 at day 90. mRS scores range from 0 to 6. 0=no symptoms,1 = symptoms without clinically significant disability,2 = slight disability,3 = moderate disability,4 = moderately severe disability,5 = severe disability; and 6 = death.

    Measured: 90 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change of Tmax>6s volume

    Change of Tmax>6s volume on CTP from baseline to 5 days after treatment

    Measured: 5 days

  2. Change of rCBF in Tmax>6s area

    Change of rCBF in Tmax>6s area on CTP from baseline to 5 days after treatment

    Measured: 5 days

  3. Ordinal distribution of modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at day 90

    Ordinal distribution of modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at day 90. mRS scores range from 0 to 6. 0=no symptoms,1 = symptoms without clinically significant disability,2 = slight disability,3 = moderate disability,4 = moderately severe disability,5 = severe disability; and 6 = death.

    Measured: 90 days

  4. The proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-1 at day 90

    The proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-1 at day 90. mRS scores range from 0 to 6. 0=no symptoms,1 = symptoms without clinically significant disability,2 = slight disability,3 = moderate disability,4 = moderately severe disability,5 = severe disability; and 6 = death.

    Measured: 90 days

  5. Change of National Institute of Health stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at day 5 after treatment.

    Change of National Institute of Health stroke Scale (NIHSS) score from baseline to 5 days after treatment. NIHSS ranges from 0 to 42, a low value represents a better outcome.

    Measured: 5 days

  6. Change of National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) score at day 10 after treatment.

    Change of National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) score from baseline to 10 days after treatment. NIHSS ranges from 0 to 42, a low value represents a better outcome.

    Measured: 10 days

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 6 inclusion and 17 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Dec 2023. 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.

Are results available for this study?

What does the primary outcome measure?

The proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-2 at day 90 (time frame: 90 days). 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 NCT06132880, 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.

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 6 Dec 2023.
