Atorvastatin calcium
DrugCapsule, 80 mg/day, with no loading dose, for 28 days
Other names: ATOR
NCT Number: NCT05826912
The purpose of this study is to determine if experimental drug treatment improves recovery after TBI as compared to a control (placebo) group. Changes in recovery will be measured throughout the study. The study drugs listed below are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) but are being used "off-label" in this study. This means that the drugs are not currently approved to treat TBI.

Time frame: 2 weeks to 3 months postinjury
Functional impairment due only to the TBI will be measured using the GOSE Scale-Extended (GOSE 2-Ways). The score ranges from 1-8, with higher scores indicating better recovery. Change will be measured from Week 2 to Month 3 postinjury and compared to placebo.
Time frame: Week 2
Neurofilament light chain (NfL) levels postinjury in participants with TBI will be measured and compared to placebo
Time frame: Week 2
GFAP levels postinjury in participants with TBI as compared to placebo
Time frame: 2 weeks to 3 months postinjury
Comparison of MRI diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) Axial Diffusivity (AD) measure using the average of 4 long association/projections tracts: (i) Anterior Limb of Internal Capsule (ALIC); (ii) External Capsule (EC); (iii) Superior Corona Radiata (SCR); and (iv) Superior Longitudinal Fasciculus (SLF). Change will be measured from 2 Weeks to 3 Months postinjury.
Time frame: Day 3 to Week 4 postinjury
Neurocognitive impairment due to TBI will be measured using the Brief Test of Adult Cognition by Telephone (BTACT). Change will be measured by composite z-score from Day 3 to Week 4 postinjury
Time frame: Day 3 to Week 4
Post-concussive symptoms due to TBI as measured by the change in Rivermead Post Concussion Symptoms Questionnaire (RPQ) Total score (0-64) from Day 3 to Week 4. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms
