Lumbrokinase vs Placebo in Moderate-to-Severe Ischemic Stroke

LUMEN is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled superiority trial designed to evaluate whether oral lumbrokinase enteric-coated capsules combined with aspirin improve functional outcomes compared with aspirin alone in patients with moderate-to-severe acute ischemic stroke. Eligible adults aged 18-80 years with a baseline NIHSS score of 4-20, prestroke mRS ≤1, and onset within 24 hours are randomly assigned 1:1 to receive either lumbrokinase (600,000 IU, three times daily for 28 days) plus aspirin 100 mg daily for 90 days, or matching placebo plus aspirin 100 mg daily for 90 days. All participants receive standard medical care according to guidelines. The primary efficacy endpoint is the proportion of patients achieving an excellent functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale score 0-1) at 90 days. The primary safety endpoint is the incidence of severe or moderate bleeding (GUSTO definition) within 90 days.
