The Safety and effiCacy of HIbernation-Like Therapy Combining recanaLization in Ischemic Stroke: a Phase 1, Dose-escalation Study
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether chlorpromazine and promethazine(C+P)is safe in Acute Ischemic Stroke(AIS) patients and determine the maximum dosage. It will also evaluate the preliminary efficacy of C+P in AIS. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the optimal dosage of C+P that is safe without causing adverse effects in AIS patients? What is the optimal dosage of C+P that potentially works to treat AIS? Researchers will compare C+P with placebo (saline solution without C+P) to see if C+P is safe and effective in treating Acute Ischemic Stroke. Participants will: Receive C+P or placebo at the same time as endovascular thrombectomy begins. Patients will be observed for 72 hours to see if there were any adverse effects related to C+P. Infarct volumes will be evaluated using Computed Tomography. Functional outcomes will be assessed at 90 days.
