Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study looks at whether starting insulin to lower high blood sugar on day 4 after a severe stroke is better than starting on day 1. About 200 adults with severe stroke and high blood sugar will be randomly assigned to early or delayed treatment. The goal is to see if delaying treatment leads to better neurological function and fewer deaths at 90 days.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
intravenous insulin
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that waiting a few days to lower blood sugar after a severe stroke leads to better recovery.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase 2 trial with only 200 participants, so results may not apply broadly. There is also a risk of hypoglycemia or infections from insulin therapy.
