MITRA: International Trial of Efficacy of Cytoflavin in Head Trauma
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The study will access the efficacy and safety of treatment with CITOFLAVIN® in patients with non-penetrating moderately severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). The study recruits patients 18-60 years with TBI, corresponding to the clinical diagnosis of brain contusion, with GCS score 9 -14 at the time of inclusion , with the estimated time of initiation of therapy within 24 hours from the estimated or established time of trauma, with post-traumatic amnesia, confusion or disorientation and absence of indications for neurosurgery or other surgical intervention under general anesthesia.
Cytoflavin® (Inosine + Nicotinamide + Riboflavin + Succinic Acid) is a combination drug, which improves cerebral blood flow, activates metabolic processes in the central nervous system, restores impaired consciousness, promotes regression of neurological symptoms and improvement of cognitive functions of the brain.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Cytoflavin ((Inosine + Nicotinamide + Riboflavin + Succinic Acid) Patients will receive treatment with the study drug, 20 ml twice a day IV, dissolved in 200 ml of 0.9% NS, for 10 days;patients will stay in the hospital for the the entire period of therapy. Observation of patients and assessment of the main parameters of the efficacy and safety will continue for 14 days. |
Drug: Cytoflavin ((Inosine + Nicotinamide + Riboflavin + Succinic Acid)
20 ml (2 ampoules, 10 ml each) dissolved in 200 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride, intravenously 2 times a day with an interval of 12 ± 2 hours, for 10 days.
|
| Placebo Comparator: Placebo Patients will receive 20 ml placebo (0.9% sodium chloride solution) twice a day IV, dissolved in 200 ml of 0.9% NS, for 10 days; patients will stay in the hospital for the the entire period of therapy. Observation of patients and assessment of the main parameters of the efficacy and safety will continue for 14 days. |
Drug: Placebo
