A Study to Evaluate the Effects of YM872 on Brain Function and Disability When Administered in Combination With Alteplase (Tissue Plasminogen Activator)

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if YM872 in combination with t-PA can reduce disability and brain damage from stroke. YM872 or placebo will be given as a continuous intravenous (iv) infusion for 24 hours. It is important that the study medication, YM872 or placebo, is administered prior to the completion of the t-PA administration. The clinical effects of YM872 in addition to t-PA will be determined by assessing neurological function and disability scores at follow up visits through Day 90 of the study.
