Disodium 4-[(tert-butylimino) methyl] benzene-1,3-disulphonate N-oxide (NXY-059), a free radical scavenger, shows potent neuroprotective effects in animal stroke models. NXY-059 may serve as a monotherapy or adjunct treatment for acute ischaemic stroke.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Free radicals are implicated in secondary damage following ischaemic brain injury.
  • Nitrone-based compounds act as free radical trapping agents.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the neuroprotective potential of Disodium 4-[(tert-butylimino) methyl] benzene-1,3-disulphonate N-oxide (NXY-059).
  • To assess NXY-059's efficacy as a monotherapy and adjunct to thrombolytic treatment for ischaemic stroke.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized animal models of stroke.
  • Investigated the effects of NXY-059, a free radical trapping agent.

Main Results:

  • NXY-059 demonstrated potent neuroprotective properties in preclinical stroke models.
  • The agent exhibited a wide therapeutic window and sustained effects.

  • NXY-059 reduced tissue plasminogen activator-induced hemorrhage in ischaemic stroke models.

    • Conclusions:

    • NXY-059 shows promise as a monotherapy for acute ischaemic stroke.
    • NXY-059 may be beneficial as an adjunct to thrombolytic therapy, mitigating associated bleeding risks.
