Glyburide Advantage in Malignant Edema and Stroke - Remedy Pharmaceuticals
brief summary
This is a randomized, multi-center, prospective, double blind study. The primary objective is to assess the efficacy and safety of glyburide (RP-1127) compared to placebo in participants with a severe anterior circulation ischemic stroke who are likely to develop malignant edema.This objective will be addressed by comparing the proportion of glyburide treated particpants and placebo treated participants with a Day 90 modified Rankin Scale (mRS) ≤ 4 without decompressive craniectomy (DC). The secondary objective is to assess the efficacy of RP-1127 compared to placebo in participants with a severe anterior circulation ischemic stroke who were likely to develop malignant edema.
detailed description
The study population consists of participants with a clinical diagnosis of acute severe anterior circulation ischemic stroke, a baseline diffusion weighted image (DWI) lesion between 82 and 300 cm3, age 18-80 years, and time from symptom onset to start of study infusion of ≤10 hours. The study will enroll both participants that do not receive intravenous (IV) recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) and those that receive IV rtPA within 4.5 hours of stroke.
Enrollment will be randomized controlling for site, age ≤60 (yes/no), and IV rtPA treatment at baseline (yes/no). Participants will be randomized equally between glyburide and placebo.
