Brief Summary
This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study investigating the safety and efficacy of QD202 injection in patients with acute ischemic stroke undergoing thrombolysis excluding endovascular thrombectomy. Up to 120 male and female patients with acute ischemic stroke undergoing thrombolysis excluding endovascular thrombectomy will be dosed with QD202 injection or placebo as a 60 minute intravenous infusion after completion of the thrombolysis procedure on Day 1-5 of the study period. Subjects will undergo interim procedures at Day 7 or the day of discharge, Day 30, and end-of-study procedures on Day 90.

Study Arms (3)
QD202, 5 milligram (mg)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive 100 mg of QD202 on Day 1 and 5 mg of QD202 daily from Day 2 to Day 5.
QD202, 10 milligram (mg)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive 100 mg of QD202 on Day 1 and 10 mg of QD202 daily from Day 2 to Day 5.
Placebo Comparator
PLACEBO COMPARATORParticipants will receive matching placebo daily from Day 1 to Day 5.
Interventions
QD202 is a 19 amino acid peptide that consists of a 8 amino acid active domain and an 11 amino acid domain that enables the peptide to cross the blood-brain barrier.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- \. Subjects aged 18-85 years (inclusive), regardless of gender;
- \. Diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke according to the Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke (2023);
- \. Time from stroke onset ≤ 24 hours (Onset time is calculated from the time stroke symptoms appear. If the stroke occurred during sleep or if the time of symptom onset cannot be accurately determined due to aphasia, impaired consciousness, or other reasons, the time the subject was last known to be normal should be used as the onset time);
- \. Pre-stroke modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ≤ 1;
- \. After this event and prior to thrombolysis, NIHSS score is between 6 and 20 (inclusive), and the sum of scores on NIHSS Item 5 (motor arm) and Item 6 (motor leg) is ≥ 2;
- \. Planned for or have already undergone thrombolytic therapy;
- \. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test and report no sexual activity within 14 days prior to screening. Subjects of childbearing potential (female or male) must agree to have no plans for pregnancy or sperm donation throughout the study period and are willing to use at least one effective method of contraception;
- \. The subject or their legal guardian voluntarily signs the informed consent form (ICF).
You may not qualify if:
- \. Allergy to any component of QD202 or the placebo.
- \. Transient ischemic attack (TIA).
- \. Poorly controlled blood pressure despite active treatment (hypertension: systolic blood pressure ≥220 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥120 mmHg; hypotension: systolic blood pressure ≤90 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≤40 mmHg).
- \. Severe hyperglycemia/hypoglycemia: blood glucose ≥400 mg/dL (22.2 mmol/L) or ≤50 mg/dL (2.8 mmol/L).
- \. Heart rate \<50 beats per minute and/or \>120 beats per minute; second- or third-degree atrioventricular block, sinoatrial block, or sinus arrest; history within 6 months prior to screening of heart failure (NYHA Class III or IV), unstable angina, acute myocardial infarction, or severe arrhythmia (including but not limited to rapid atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, frequent premature beats, supraventricular or ventricular tachycardia).
- \. Severe impairment of consciousness after the current event and prior to thrombolysis: NIHSS level of consciousness (item 1a) score ≥2.
- \. History of severe psychiatric disorder or severe dementia.
- \. History of depression or anxiety, if the investigator deems participation in this clinical trial inappropriate.
- \. Subjects unsuitable for thrombolytic therapy, or those who have undergone or are planned to undergo endovascular interventional therapy.
- \. Use of therapeutic neuroprotective agents after stroke onset, including commercially available edaravone, edaravone dexborneol injection concentrate and sublingual tablets, ginkgolides, ginkgo diterpene lactone meglumine, nimodipine, gangliosides, citicoline, piracetam, oxiracetam, butylphthalide, cinepazide maleate injection, mouse nerve growth factor, potential neuroprotective Cerebrolysin (cerebroprotein hydrolysate), deproteinized calf blood extractives injection, ulinastatin, etc. (except mannitol used to reduce intracranial pressure).
- \. Concurrent malignancy diagnosed previously and currently undergoing anti-tumor therapy.
- \. History of severe systemic disease with an estimated life expectancy of \<90 days.
- \. Diagnosed with severe active liver disease (e.g., acute hepatitis, chronic active hepatitis, cirrhosis) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \>2.0 times the upper limit of normal (ULN).
- \. Diagnosed with severe active kidney disease, renal insufficiency, or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \<60 mL/min/1.73 m².
- \. Bleeding tendency, including platelet count (PLT) \<75.0×10⁹/L, or history of major bleeding within 3 months prior to the current event.
