Brief summary
Shuxuening injection is a multi-target neuroprotective agent, it is expected to play a neuroprotective role on the basis of intravenous thrombolysis therapy. The primary purpose of this multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-parallel controlled trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Shuxuening injection in the treatment with intravenous thrombolysis in patients with ischemic stroke.
Detailed description
Intravenous thrombolysis with rt-PA within the time window is the most effective drug for acute ischemic stroke, but there are still more than 50% patients with functional disability. Neuroprotective agents can reduce brain cell death after cerebral ischemia by blocking all links of ischemic cascade. Shuxuening injection is a multi-target neuroprotective agent, it is expected to play a neuroprotective role on the basis of intravenous thrombolysis therapy. This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-parallel controlled trial. A total of 1380 patients from 50 centers in China who could be treated within 6 hours of onset and have received or plan to undergo intravenous thrombolytic therapy will be enrolled and randomly assigned, in a 1:1 ratio, to receive Shuxuening injection (20 ml Shuxuening injection + 250 ml 0.9% sodium chloride injection), or to receive Shuxuening injection placebo (20 ml plus 250 ml 0.9% sodium chloride injection); both groups are treated for 10-14 days. The primary efficacy outcome is mRS Score 0 to 1 at 90 days, and the primary safety outcome is adverse events within 90 days.
Interventions
Receiving 20 ml Shuxuening injection plus 250ml 0.9% sodium chloride injection, intravenous drip once a day, for 10-14 days
Receiving 20 ml placebo Shuxuening injection plus 250ml 0.9% sodium chloride injection, intravenous drip once a day, for 10-14 days.

|---|---|---|
| The proportion of mRS score 0 to 1 at 90 days after randomization | At 90 days after randomization | The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ranges from 0 to 6, with higher scores indicating worse functional outcome. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The distribution of mRS scores at 90 days after randomization | At 90 days after randomization | The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ranges from 0 to 6, with higher scores indicating worse functional outcome. |
| NIHSS score improvement ≥4 points from baseline at 14 days after randomization or on discharge | At 14 days after randomization or on discharge | The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score ranges from 0 to 42, with higher scores indicating more severe neurological deficit. |
