Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score on day 10 (after the treatment) from baseline
The aim is to assess the effects of Xueshuantong lyophilized powder versus placebo on reducing the neurological impairment when initiated within 72 hours of symptom onset in patients with acute ischemic stroke. The National Institute of Health Stroke Scale is a tool used by healthcare providers to objectively quantify the impairment caused by a stroke. It 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.
Day 10 ± 2
Secondary Outcomes (6)
The proportion of patients with National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score 0-1 on day 10 (after the treatment)
Day 10 ± 2
Patients-reported outcome of patients measured by Patient-Reported Outcomes Scale for Stroke on day 10 (after the treatment)
Day 10 ± 2
The proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale grade ≤1 on day 90
Day 90 ± 7
The proportion of patients with Barthel Index (BI) score greater than or equal to 90 on day 90
Day 90 ± 7
Quality of life of patients measured by Stroke-specific quality of life scale on day 90
Day 90 ± 7
- +1 more secondary outcomes
Other Outcomes (4)
Change in intercellular adhesion molecule 1 level on day 10 (after the treatment) from baseline
Day 10 ± 2
Change in Interleukin 6 level on day 10 (after the treatment) from baseline
Day 10 ± 2
Change in tumor necrosis factor-α level on day 10 (after the treatment) from baseline
Day 10 ± 2
- +1 more other outcomes
Study Arms (2)
Xueshuantong
EXPERIMENTALPatients will receive intravenously administered Xueshuantong, combined with guidelines-based standard care.
Placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORPatients will receive intravenously administered Xueshuantong placebo, combined with guidelines-based standard care.
Interventions
Xueshuantong lyophilized powder (500mg), diluted with 250 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride injection, IV (in the vein), once a day, continue for 10 days.
Xueshuantong lyophilized powder Placebo. The usage of placebo is the same as that in the experimental group.
Guidelines-based standard care for acute ischemic stroke
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke.
- Patients that can be treated with study drug within 72 hours of symptoms onset defined by the "last see normal" principle.
- ≤ NIHSS score ≤ 16 (total score of upper and lower limbs on motor deficits ≥ 2) at the randomization time.
- Female or male aged ≥ 18 years and ≤ 80 years.
- Provision of signed informed consent prior to any study-specific procedure.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients who have received intravenous/intra-arterial thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy prior to randomization.
- Secondary stroke caused by tumor, traumatic brain Injury, hematological disease or other diseases with the explicit diagnosis.
- mRS grade ≥ 2 pre-morbid historical assessment.
- Other conditions that lead to motor dysfunction (e.g. claudication, severe osteoarthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, gouty arthritis or other diseases).
- Known severe impairment of liver function or renal function.
- Known hypersensitivity to study drugs.
- Known severe comorbidity with life expectancy \< 3 months.
- Known massive cerebral infarction combined with disturbance of consciousness (1a ≥ 2 in NIHSS), dementia, mental impairment, or unsuitable for participation, in the opinion of the investigator.
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- Participation in another clinical study with an investigational product at any time during the 3 months prior to randomization (regardless of when treatment with the investigational product was discontinued).
