About
This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of Human Urinary Kallidinogenase for acute ischemic stroke patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis and/or endovascular treatment.
Full description
Within 24 hours after symptom onset, eligible participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the HUK or placebo group, receiving adjunctive HUK or placebo treatment alongside standard intravenous thrombolysis and/or endovascular treatment. All participants will be recommended to continuously inject drugs or placebo for 10 to 14 days according to length of hospitalization.
- Intervention group: HUK (0.15 PNA) and sodium chloride injection (100ml), once per day
- Control group: placebo (0 PNA) and sodium chloride injection (100ml), once per day The total follow-up duration is 90 days.
