Tests treatment safety and results for Butylphthalide
Official title Butylphthalide's Safety and Efficacy for Improving Neurological Function Prognosis in Patients With Cardiac Arrest (BNCA Trial)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06353334
What this study is testing
What is Butylphthalide and Sodium Chloride Injection?
Butylphthalide and Sodium Chloride Injection is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for butylphthalide.
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
- Butylphthalide (NBP) is a neuroprotective medication capable of ameliorating neurological dysfunction induced by ischemia, hypoxia, and reperfusion injury in the brain. However, evidence regarding the improvement of neurological function prognosis in patients with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after cardiac arrest (CA) by NBP is limited.
- Phase 4: studies an already-approved treatment
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
