Abstract Background: Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Thrombolytic therapy improves disability and survival rates; however, to be effective, it must be given within 4.5 hours of onset. Moreover, thrombolytic therapy is frequently contraindicated. Therefore, alternative therapeutic options are required. In China, cinepazide maleate injection has been shown to improve the cerebral collateral circulation and further reduce disability in stroke patients; however, very few studies investigating this therapy have been conducted to date. Therefore, this study aimed to further confirm the efficacy and safety of cinepazide maleate injection in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods: Patients with acute ischemic stroke were administered an intravenous infusion of 320 mg cinepazide maleate or placebo once daily for 14 days. All patients were also administered basic therapy (citicoline sodium). The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of patients with a modified Rankin scale (mRS) ≤2 on day 90. Secondary efficacy endpoints included Barthel Index ≥95. Safety was evaluated by recording all adverse events (AEs), monitoring laboratory parameters and vital signs, and electrocardiogram.Results: In total, 937 patients with an acute ischemic stroke were included, with a mean (standard deviation, SD) National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score of 8.8 (2.4) and a mean (SD) stroke onset of 30.9 (11.4) hours prior. Following treatment for 90 days, the proportion of patients with an mRS score ≤2 was significantly higher in the cinepazide maleate group than in the control group (60.9% vs. 50.1%; p=0.0004). Moreover, the proportion of patients with a Barthel Index of ≥95 on day 90 was also significantly higher in the cinepazide maleate group than in the control group (53.4% vs. 46.7%; p=0.0230). There were no statistically significant differences in safety parameters between the cinepazide maleate and control groups.Conclusions: The results of this study show that cinepazide maleate injection is superior to placebo in improving neurological function and activities of daily living, reducing disability, and promoting functional recovery in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Cinepazide maleate injection was safe and well tolerated with no unexpected AEs reported.Trial registration: Chinese Clinical Trial Registry CTR20160292 and ChiCTR1900023827.

Introduction: HT047 is an herbal mixture extract of the Scutellaria baicalensis and Pueraria lobata plants, which have been widely used to treat ischemic stroke in traditional Korean medicine. The aims of this trial are to investigate whether HT047 can improve neurological status, particularly motor function, in acute ischemic stroke patients, and to determine the safety and tolerance of HT047. Methods: In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, phase II trial, we enrolled patients with acute ischemic stroke within the past 14 days from 8 centers in Korea. The participating patients must have a Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) motor score ≤55 with arm or leg weakness, and Korean version of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (K-NIHSS) score of ≥4 and ≤15. Seventy-eight participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio and given high-dose HT047 (750 mg three times a day), low-dose HT047 (500 mg three times a day), or a placebo for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint is the change in FMA motor score between baseline and week 12. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02828540. Results: Between Aug, 2016, and Aug, 2018, we randomly assigned 78 patients to one of the three study groups, of whom 66 patients were assessed for the primary endpoint in full analysis set. The median (min, max) changes in FMA motor score of high-dose HT047 and low-dose HT047 were 24 (0, 63) and 43 (-2, 70) (placebo group=28 [0, 63], p=0.929 and p=0.705, respectively). The prevalence of favorable outcome defined as modified Rankin scale score of 0-2 were 47.6% (p=0.919) in high-dose HT047 group and 57.1% (p=0.106) in low-dose HT047 group (31.6% in placebo group). Adverse events were similar across the three study groups. Conclusions: This study is a first-in-human trial of HT047, and there were no between-group differences on the primary and secondary endpoints.
