Ischemic Stroke
Conditions
Brief summary
The study is designed to determine the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in healthy subjects with multiple intravenous administration of the neuroprotectant YC-6 compared to placebo.
Detailed description
tPA administration within 3-4.5 hours after stroke onset has been the only approved therapy and thus no more than 7% of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) victims worldwide benefited from tPA. A neuroprotectant, YC-6, showed therapeutic effects in preclinical animal models of AIS, indicating its potential as alternative or combined treatment against human AIS. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial is to explore safety and tolerability in healthy Chinese adult volunteers with dose-escalating intravenous infusion of YC-6 for 7 consecutive days. 6 subjects for YC-6 and 2 for placebo will be allocated in each level. Blood and urine samples of each subject will be used in determination of pharmacokinetic properties of the investigational drug.
