NCT01104311

Brief Summary

To develop adequate blood pressure (BP) lowering strategy after subacute ischemic stroke patients with symptomatic severe intracranial atherosclerosis. Primary hypothesis of this study is that aggressive BP control (lowering systolic BP between 110mmHg and 120mmHg) will not increase the ischemic lesion volumes in hemisphere compared to modest BP lowering (lowering systolic BP between 130mmHg and 140mmHg) in the patients with symptomatic severe intracranial atherosclerosis.

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • acute symptomatic ischemic stroke having relevant lesion on DWI(Diffusion weighted image) MRI 7 days after and 42 days within onset.
  • relevant stenosis(more than 50%) or occlusion from MCA(middle cerebral artery)(M1) to distal of ICA(internal carotid artery ) on MR(Magnetic resonance) angiogram or CT angiogram.
  • mean systolic blood pressure\>=140mmHg or taking antihypertensive drug on screening.

You may not qualify if:

  • taking more than 3 antihypertensive drugs and mean systolic blood pressure\>=150mmHg on screening.
  • history of recent thrombolysis but stenosis or occlusion remained after thrombolysis.
  • evidence of orthostatic hypotension
  • suspicious embolic cerebrovascular stenosis
  • planned state of cerebrovascular surgery or angioplasty or stent 7 months within screening.
  • severe stroke-NIHSS\>=16
  • mean systolic blood pressure\>=200mmHg which is not able to control on screening.
  • abnormal blood test finding (abnormal LFT(liver function test), anemia, renal insufficiency)
  • pregnant or breast-feeding
  • severe stroke sequela or medical problem
  • suspicious secondary hypertension
  • disease causing edema or significant ankle edema on screening.
  • severe heart failure which correspond to NYHA (New York Heart Association )heart failure classification class III or IV.
  • inappropriate condition determined by investigator
  • Patient who do not have FLAIR image on or two months prior to screening.
