Study of Urinary Kallikrein to Enhance Collateral Circulation in Symptomatic Intracranial Atherosclerosis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Urinary Kallikrein has an additional effect on enhancing collateral circulation in symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic patients under clopidogrel and aspirin dual antiplatelet therapy.

Experimental: Urinary Kallikrein group Urinary Kallikrein for injection, 0.15PNA IU,qd, for 2 weeks, administered within 96 hours after TIA or acute ischemic stroke, with basic therapies like dual antiplatelet therapy, blood pressure-lowering therapy and lipid-lowering therapy. |

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- the percentage of patients with modified Rankin Score (mRS) equivalent to or less than 2 [3 months]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- rLMC scale of Collateral circulation [2 weeks, 1 month]
We use regional leptomeningeal score(rLMC) score to measure collateral circulation.rLMC score is based on scoring pial and lenticulostriate arteries in 6 ASPECTS regions(M1-6) plus anterior cerebral artery region and basal ganglia. Pial arteries in the Sylvian sulcus are scored 0,2, or 4.
- NIHSS score [2 weeks, 1month]
- Hemorrhageic complications [2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months]
Hemorrhageic complications including intracranial, digestive tract
- New stroke or transient ischemic attack(TIA) [6 months]
