Study description
This study was done to test a new drug called S44819 (study drug), in patients who had a recent ischemic stroke.
An ischemic stroke is a sudden lack of blood in the brain. It is caused by the blockage of a blood vessel known as an artery. Without blood, the brain tissue is damaged. Symptoms include dizziness, numbness, weakness on one side of the body, and problems with talking, writing, or understanding language. A stroke is also called a cerebrovascular accident.
The main objective of the study was to test if S44819 works better than a placebo on recovery after a stroke. A placebo is a medicine that looks like the study drug but contains no active ingredients.
This study is called a phase 2 study.
