Darbepoetin for neonatal stroke

Darbepoetin for Ischemic Neonatal Stroke to Augment Regeneration

Source: EU CTIS (euclinicaltrials.eu) · Last updated 8 Aug 2024 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open

Brief summary (registry, in English)

To perform a double-blind randomized placebo controlled multicenter study with darbepoetin in infants with MRI confirmed PAIS and to investigate whether darbepoetin can reduce brain injury in neonates who suffered from perinatal arterial ischemic stroke (PAIS). The ultimate goal of this study is therefore to develop a therapy using erythropoiesis-stimulating-agents (ESAs) such as darbepoetin to reduce or even prevent lifelong consequences of PAIS-related brain injury in this group of term newborns.
