NCT ID NCT04091945

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This Phase IIa trial tested a single dose of LT3001, a new drug, in 24 people who had an acute ischemic stroke within the past 24 hours. The main goal was to see if the drug causes dangerous bleeding in the brain compared to a placebo. Researchers also looked for early signs that the drug might help improve outcomes. The study is complete, but results are not yet published.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

LT3001

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for acute ischemic stroke that may help restore blood flow with a lower risk of bleeding.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase IIa trial with only 24 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The main safety concern is bleeding in the brain, and the drug may not prove effective in larger studies.
