Efficacy and Safety of Early Initiation of Butylphthalide Treatment in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke.

Effect of Early Initiation of Butylphthalide on Neural Function in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke -A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label, Blinded End Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 25 Nov 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint trial designed to evaluate the difference in efficacy of Butylphthalide Sodium Chloride Injection treatment initiated early (\<3 hours) versus late (3-6 hours) in patients with acute ischemic stroke. The aim is to determine the optimal timing window for neuroprotective therapy.
