Efficacy of Mexidol in patients with chronic brain ischemia and cognitive impairment of different age groups (results of sub-analysis of the international multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of sequential therapy in patients with chronic brain ischemia MEMO)

Objective. To assess the efficacy of sequential therapy with Mexidol and Mexidol FORTE 250 in comparison with placebo in patients of different age groups with chronic brain ischemia. Material and methods. The study is sub-analysis of data of the international multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of sequential therapy in patients with chronic brain ischemia (MEMO), which included 318 patients (25% men) in the age of 40—90 (median 60) years. All subjects were subdivided into 3 age subgroups: 40—60 years (n=163), 61—75 years (n=141) and 76—90 years (n=13). The primary efficacy endpoint was the dynamic of increase of total score by MoCA scale, i.e. the absolute value of difference by MoCA scale at the point of day 75 comparing to values before treatment. As secondary efficacy endpoints results of dynamic by following questionnaires and scales were used: digit symbol substitution test, the Health Survey SF-36, asthenia subjective assessment scale (MFI-20), Vane questionnaire, Beck anxiety scale, Tinetti scale.
