Tests treatment safety and results for Acute Ischemic Stroke
Official title Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Sovateltide in Patients With Acute Cerebral Ischemic Stroke
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05691244
What this study is testing
What is Drug: Normal Saline?
Drug: Normal Saline is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for acute ischemic stroke.
Also referred to as Vehicle.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Extensive research is being conducted in search of neuroprotective agents for possible use in the acute phase of stroke and agents that can be used for neurorepair in later stages of stroke. Several trials have been conducted and are in progress using different pharmacological agents, but none of the studies involve the stimulation of ETB receptors to treat cerebral ischemic stroke.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
