Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Subjects will receive SFX-01/Placebo in order to review potential outcomes investigating the long-term complications of SAH such as Delayed Cerebral Ischaemia, as reflected by Trans-Cranial Doppler (TCD) readings. The objective is to demonstrate safety and search for signals of efficacy in patients that have had SAH.
A sub-study will be conducted in up to 12 patients where an External Ventricular Drain (EVD) fitted; serial CSF samples will be taken pre- \& post-dose on two occasions to determine pharmacokinetics of Sulforaphane in CSF in comparison with plasma pharmacokinetics. Sub-study patients will undergo all other procedures (with the exception of lumbar puncture).
Treatment duration is up to 28 days; follow up duration is 28 days, three and six months. The planned trial period is 24 months.
