Who can take part
AI summary
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults aged 18 to 80 with a large stroke on one side of the brain, within 24h of onset. They cannot have reperfusion therapy, or it did not work well.
- Age
- 18 to 80 years
- Sex
- All sexes
- Disease stage
- Large stroke in the area supplied by the middle cerebral artery. NIHSS score 16 to 32, with the arm and leg movement scores adding up to at least 6. A large core of dead brain tissue is seen on brain scans.
- Earlier treatment
- First stroke, or fully self-caring before this stroke (mRS 0-1). Drug can be given within 24h of onset. NIHSS score not improving or getting worse after reperfusion therapy, and still 32 or less.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Brain bleeding, or stroke at the back of the brain or on both sides
- Signs of brain herniation, or craniotomy decompression planned before randomization
- Out-of-range blood pressure or blood sugar, or serious liver, kidney, heart or lung problems
- Problem for skull injection, such as skull fracture or infection in the last 3 months, or a bleeding tendency
- Pregnant or breastfeeding, or taking part in another interventional trial

Show all 27 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- 18≤Age≤80 years
- First stroke or complete self-care before the onset of current stroke (mRS 0-1)
- Administration of drugs can be completed within 24h of the onset of signs and symptoms of neurological deficits (in patients with wake-up strokes or unwitnessed strokes, the time of onset is defined as the time of last normal presentation)
- Clinical symptoms, signs and imaging diagnosis of cerebral infarction in the area supplied by the middle cerebral artery, together with the following features:; 16≤ NIHSS ≤32 points, and the sum of the scores of motor arm and motor leg is ≥6; Imaging suggestive of core infarct area: apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values <620×10\^-6mm\^2/s lesion volume on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) sequences or cerebral blood flow (CBF) <30% of volume 70-300 ml on computed tomography perfusion imaging (CTP) or an Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) of 0-6, with inconsistent findings, the investigator is required to make a reasoned judgement by taking into account all the information (scanning time, the imaging method that best responds to the size of infarct, etc.) and record it
- NIHSS score not improving or progressing after reperfusion therapy and total score still ≤32
- Informed consent signed
Who cannot take part
- Presence of significant abnormal liver function markers or renal function markers prior to randomization
- Complications with other cerebrovascular diseases meet one of the following conditions:; Complicated with acute cerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage; Complicated with acute posterior circulation cerebral infarction or severe posterior circulation stenosis (>70%); Or imaging suggests that the area of cerebral infarction is involved bilaterally; The cause of the TOAST classification was considered as intracranial artery dissection, vasculitis, moyamoya disease and other etiological types
- Hemorrhage transformation in the infarction area, hematoma area ≥30% of the infarction area, and has obvious space-occupying effect
- Refractory hypertension (systolic > 200mmHg or diastolic > 110mmHg) or hypotension (systolic < 70mmHg or diastolic < 50mmHg) that is difficult to control with medication
- Acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (MI) and/or decompensated heart failure (meeting the New York College of Cardiology (NYHA) Heart function grades III and IV) within the past 3 months
- Presence of contraindications to intracalvariosseous injection, e.g., skull fracture in the last 3 months, skull infection, subdural/extradural hematoma, subcutaneous hematoma, skin or subcutaneous infection of the scalp, poorly displayed skull bone marrow niches;
- Patients with severe respiratory diseases (severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, respiratory failure, etc.) should be corrected by intubation, tracheotomy, or ventilator
- The subjects were considered to have developed clinically significant serious infections, including severe local infections or systemic infections
- Diagnosed severe degenerative diseases of the central nervous system such as Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Parkinson's Disease (PD), and severe dementia of all causes, or psychiatric disorders (e.g., schizophrenia, depression, etc.)
- Subjects with a life expectancy of less than 3 months due to conditions not considered current by the investigators, such as tumors
- Known allergy to any component of investigational process therapy drugs and contrast agents
- Abnormal blood glucose before randomization (random venous blood glucose < 2.8mmol/L or > 23mmol/L)
- Note: Severe liver function abnormalities were defined as serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN). Significant renal insufficiency is defined as eGFR less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m² (eGFR, calculated using the CKD-EPI formula)
- Bleeding tendencies considered by the investigators to be detrimental to the procedure include, but are not limited to, platelet counts < 100×10\^9/L, and the presence of clotting disorders such as hemophilia;
- Presence of severe or very severe anemia (hemoglobin <60 g/L) at randomization;
- Presence of clinical signs of brain herniation formation, e.g., unilateral or bilateral pupil dilation and fixation; cerebral oedema-associated loss of consciousness (NIHSS 1a > 2 points), or other loss of brainstem reflexes in the judgement of the investigator, caused by cerebral oedema or cerebral herniation formation; or other signs of instability of vital signs that are difficult to control
- Craniotomy decompression was planned before randomization
- Subjects who are pregnant, breastfeeding or have the possibility of becoming pregnant or plan to become pregnant
- Subjects are unable to comply with trial protocols or follow-up requirements
- Other circumstances deemed by the investigators to be unsuitable for enrollment (registration of reasons for inability to enroll is required)
- Have participated in other interventional clinical trials

About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
A pilot study confirmed the feasibility and safety of neuroprotectant Y-3 intracalvariosseous(ICO) injection in patients with malignant middle cerebral artery infarction (mMCAI), showing a trend in improving 90-day functional scores compared to conventional treatment. The aim of this trial is to further investigate the efficacy and safety of ICO injection of Y-3 compared to intravenous injection in patients with acute large hemispheric infarction(LHI) who has contraindications of reperfusion therapy or have got poor reperfusion therapy outcomes.
The 2 groups in the trial
- ICO injection groupTreatment being tested
Y-3 ICO injection (dose was given as 32 ug/kg) once a day for 3 consecutive days, as well as standard treatment and management according to the related guidelines.
Treatment: Y-3 ICO injection and Conventional treatment
- intravenous injection groupExisting treatment, for comparison
Y-3 intravenous injection(dose was given as 40mg + 250ml normal saline), as well as standard treatment and management according to related guidelines.
Treatment: Y-3 intravenous injection and Conventional treatment
