An ischemic stroke happens when blood supply to the brain is blocked, usually by a blood clot or fatty plaque accumulation in the arteries. Due to this obstruction, there is less oxygen and nutrition available, which damages or kills brain cells. About 87% of all strokes are ischemic strokes, which fall into two primary categories, namely, embolic strokes (clots originate from other areas of the body) and thrombotic strokes (clots form in the arteries of the brain). To reduce brain damage and enhance recovery, prompt therapy is essential. The rising prevalence of the condition is anticipated to positively impact the pipeline landscape for ischemic stroke drugs.
The assessment part will include a detailed analysis of each drug, drug class, clinical studies, phase type, drug type, route of administration, and ongoing product development activities related to ischemic stroke.
The best treatment for acute ischemic stroke is a small molecule, specifically alteplase (also known as recombinant tissue plasminogen activator, or rt-PA). It is a fibrinolytic drug that is administered intravenously to break up clots and replenish blood supply to the brain. Alteplase is still the sole FDA-approved medication for acute ischemic stroke within a certain time frame, even though other medications like heparins (antithrombotic) and anti-inflammatory drugs may be utilized. Although it is currently at the preclinical stage, research is being done on novel compounds like LK-2, which protects neurons by targeting glutamate activity. Further, the rising focus on the development of ischemic stroke emerging drugs and the advances in the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of the disease are expected to support the pipeline expansion in the coming years.

Ischemic Stroke Drug Pipeline Outlook
The pathophysiology of an ischemic stroke starts when blood supply to the brain is blocked, frequently because of thromboembolic incidents. As a result, cellular hypoxia and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) depletion occur, upsetting ion homeostasis and depolarizing neurons. Cytotoxic edema is the outcome of too many calcium and sodium ions entering cells. While the penumbra (the area of brain tissue surrounding the ischemic core) contains tissue that can be salvaged, the ischemic core, where blood supply is drastically restricted, undergoes fast cell death. Damage is made worse by inflammatory reactions, which can result in neuronal death and other long-term impairments if left untreated.The best treatment for acute ischemic stroke is a small molecule, specifically alteplase (also known as recombinant tissue plasminogen activator, or rt-PA). It is a fibrinolytic drug that is administered intravenously to break up clots and replenish blood supply to the brain. Alteplase is still the sole FDA-approved medication for acute ischemic stroke within a certain time frame, even though other medications like heparins (antithrombotic) and anti-inflammatory drugs may be utilized. Although it is currently at the preclinical stage, research is being done on novel compounds like LK-2, which protects neurons by targeting glutamate activity.

Ischemic Stroke Epidemiology
Globally, ischemic stroke affects approximately 77.19 million individuals, with a notable increase in cases over recent years. In 2020, there were around 7.86 million new cases of ischemic stroke, contributing to significant mortality and disability. The incidence is higher in low- and middle-income countries, where healthcare access is often limited. Women account for about 56% of ischemic stroke cases. Projections indicate that the number of cases may rise to 9.62 million by 2030, highlighting the growing burden of this condition worldwide.Ischemic Stroke - Drug Pipeline Therapeutic Assessment

- Shanghai Hutchison Pharmaceuticals Limited
Ischemic Stroke Emerging Drugs Profile
Major drugs currently in the drug pipeline are as follows:
Drug: Evolocumab
Amgen is developing Evolocumab, a PCSK9 inhibitor, for ischemic stroke prevention. In the Phase 3 of FOURIER trial, adding Evolocumab to statin therapy reduced ischemic stroke risk by 25% compared to a placebo. Building on these findings, the ongoing Phase 4 EVOLVE-MI trial is evaluating the impact of early Evolocumab administration in reducing cardiovascular events, including ischemic stroke, in patients hospitalized for acute myocardial infarction.Drug: Lerodalcibep
Lerodalcibep, developed by LIB Therapeutics LLC, is a novel, subcutaneous PCSK9 inhibitor designed to significantly reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). While primarily targeting hypercholesterolemia and cardiovascular diseases, current clinical trials do not indicate its development for ischemic stroke treatment. Its potent LDL-C-lowering effects may indirectly benefit stroke prevention by addressing atherosclerotic risk factors.Reasons To Buy This Report
