Testing a medication approach to improve brain recovery after severe head injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This Phase 2 trial is testing a combination medication strategy to improve outcomes after severe traumatic brain injury that needs emergency brain surgery soon after the injury. It may help by affecting how injured brain cells respond, aiming to improve survival or recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have an acute traumatic brain injury (TBI) and doctors plan emergency craniotomy with opening of the dura within 72 hours of the injury.
- The injury must not look like a non-survivable situation (for example, both pupils are persistently unresponsive to light).
- You cannot be in a situation where a decompressive craniectomy is planned later for ongoing uncontrolled brain pressure after widespread injury.
- You cannot join another treatment trial for TBI at the same time.
- You must not be pregnant.

This trial looks at changes in brain activity after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) when patients need emergency skull surgery. The goal is to better understand what happens in the brain after surgery and whether earlier recognition could help care after injury.
This study is looking at people with traumatic brain injuries to improve how they are treated. If you join, you will get an MRI and other tests within the first two days after your injury, and the researchers will track your recovery over time.
This trial monitors brain activity with special electrodes after a severe head injury. It aims to understand how the brain recovers by watching the electrical signals, which might help improve treatment for brain pressure.
This study looks at patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) who already need brain pressure or oxygen monitoring. Doctors want to see if certain tests can help predict how well someone might recover.
This trial tests a new way to manage brain pressure after a severe head injury. The goal is to improve blood flow to the brain, which may help recovery.
This trial studies whether brain stimulation through the scalp can improve cognitive (thinking and memory) training in people with chronic mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). Participants train on thinking tasks while receiving a targeted “control network neuromodulation” approach to see if it enhances training results.
