Phase 2

SISTER is a study to help improve stroke treatment. It tests a drug called TS23, which is a monoclonal antibody that can help with blood flow during an acute ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by blocked blood flow to the brain). The study aims to find a safe and effective dose of TS23. Participants must have had a stroke recently and show potential for brain recovery. This study uses a placebo (a harmless pill or treatment) to compare with TS23. The study will involve 300 people across 50 locations. Researchers will assess safety by checking for brain bleeding 30 hours after receiving the drug and will check how well it helps using a stroke rating scale. Participants will be followed for 90 days to track outcomes.

  • The study lasts for 3 months with follow-up visits.
  • Participants must be 18 or older and have had a recent stroke.
  • Some medical history might make someone ineligible, like recent surgeries or certain medications.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
