Zastaprazan for the prEvention of Upper GI Bleeding in Ischemic Stroke

Официальное название

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multi-center, Phase 3 Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy of Zastaprazan in PrEventing Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding in Patients With Transient Ischemic Attack or Ischemic Stroke Receiving Antiplatelet or Anticoagulant Therapy: ZEUS Trial

Обзор

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if zastaprazan can help prevent upper gastrointestinal bleeding in adults who have recently had a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or ischemic stroke and are taking antiplatelet or anticoagulant medications. The main question it aims to answer is: \- Does zastaprazan reduce the risk of upper gastrointestinal bleeding compared to placebo in these patients? Researchers will compare zastaprazan to a placebo (a look-alike tablet that contains no drug) to see if zastaprazan works to prevent upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Participants will: * Take zastaprazan (20 mg) or a placebo once daily for the duration of the study, in addition to their prescribed antiplatelet or anticoagulant medication * Visit the study site regularly for safety monitoring, including vital signs, physical exams, and laboratory tests * Be monitored for any signs of gastrointestinal bleeding or other adverse events for up to approximately 3 years (including screening, treatment, and follow-up periods)

Вмешательства

• Препарат Zastaprazan
  Zastaprazan citrate 20 mg, a potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB), administered orally once daily at a fixed dose, in addition to standard antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy.
• Препарат Placebo
  Matching placebo for zastaprazan citrate 20 mg, administered orally once daily at a fixed dose, in addition to standard antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy.
