Abstract: Treatment of subjects experiencing cerebral ischemia is improved when the treatment employs a thrombolytic and an inhibitor against vascular endothelial growth factor receptor signal transduction (VEGF-RST) at a reduced, low dosage compared to that used to treat cancer patients. The treatment is also improved to permit point-of-care use by formulating protein drugs for long term stability at room temperature, providing doses appropriate for the method, and by combining the therapeutic agents with a point-of-care diagnostic for blood brain barrier integrity.

Abstract: Identification of candidates for treatment and treatment of subjects experiencing cerebral ischemia wherein the treatment employs a thrombolytic or thrombectomy agent and an inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor-mediated signal transduction are determined by testing the blood of a patient for total S-100B or for S-100BB as a marker of blood brain barrier integrity.
