Maimonides Minocycline in Stroke Study

Summary

The goal of this study is to determine if oral Minocycline's proposed neuroprotective effects further improve the clinical outcomes, including mortality, of acute stroke patients beyond the current standard stroke care in a large scale randomized prospective open label (outcome assessor blinded) clinical trial. Participants will be randomly assigned (1:1) to take Minocycline 200mg orally every 24 hours for five days, starting within 24 hours from stroke symptoms onset, in addition to standard care or standard care alone. NIHSS (The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale) and mRS (Modified Rankin Scale) will be collected at the time of presentation, discharge and again at 30- and 90-days post-discharge. All-cause mortality will also be obtained at 30 days and 90 days.
