Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains a leading cause of death and disability, affecting approximately 69 million individuals each year worldwide. A significant portion of TBI research has focused on treatments for neuroprotection and/or neurorecovery, with most failing to transition to successful clinical applications despite promising animal/in vitro study results. MLC901 (NeuroAiD II), with origins from a traditional Chinese medicine, has been shown to exhibit both neuroprotective and neuroregenerative properties in in vitro and animal studies for stroke and TBI. Clinical trials have demonstrated its safety with significant improvements in some functional outcome and cognitive domain measures. To determine the efficacy and safety of MLC901 (NeuroAiD II) vs placebo in adult patients with moderate TBI. This is a multicenter randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial that aims to enroll 120 adult patients with moderate TBI receiving standard of care in 2 arms: MLC901 vs placebo for a treatment period of 6 months with a further follow-up of 3 months. The total duration of the study is 9 months. The primary end point is Glasgow Outcome Scale Extended (GOS-E) at 6 months. Other assessments include mortality at 6 months, GOS-E, Glasgow Coma Scale, Montreal Cognitive Assessment Filipino Version, Frontal Assessment Battery Conflicting Instructions and Go-No-Go, Rivermead Post-Concussion Symptom Questionnaire, Barthel Index, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Health related Quality of life (EQ-5D) at 1, 3, 6, and 9 months. Cerebral swelling at baseline and at 1 and 2 weeks will also be documented. Adverse events and drug compliance will also be monitored. We expect to find a significant improvement in functional and cognitive outcomes in patients who were given MLC901. Previous studies on the effect of MLC901 in adult patients with moderate TBI showed positive results; However, these studies are limited by the small number of patients. This study will establish a more definitive role of MLC901 in improving functional and cognitive outcomes in patients with moderate TBI.
