Study summary

This study evaluates the efficacy of digital language rehabilitation using LEXURE for the treatment of post-stroke aphasia. Half of participants will receive structured language training using the LEXURE application, while the other half will receive workbook-based language training as an active comparator.

Read the detailed description

This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, evaluator-blinded confirmatory clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LEXURE, a digital therapeutic for language in patients with post-stroke aphasia.

Eligible participants who provide informed consent will undergo screening and be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the LEXURE group or the control group.

LEXURE Group:

Participants assigned to the LEXURE group will receive structured digital language training using the LEXURE application. The training consists of multiple language tasks and will be performed for approximately 30 minutes per session, 5 times per week, for 10 weeks.

Control Group:

Participants assigned to the control group will perform structured language training using a workbook-based intervention. The training will consist of predefined language tasks and will be conducted for approximately 30 minutes per session, 5 times per week, for 10 weeks.

The primary efficacy endpoint will be assessed using the K-WAB/PK-WAB-R, and evaluations will be conducted by an independent, evaluator-blinded assessor.

  1. Diagnosed with hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke
  2. At least 3 months have elapsed since stroke onset
  3. History of aphasia resulting from stroke
  4. Aphasia Quotient (AQ) score between 26 and 90 (inclusive) on the Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery (K-WAB) or the Paradise Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery-Revised (PK-WAB-R)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Diagnosed with language impairment due to causes other than stroke (e.g., traumatic brain injury, brain tumor, or neurodegenerative disease)
  2. History of language impairment due to developmental disorders
  3. Currently receiving speech-language therapy or participating in another clinical trial related to language function
  4. Currently receiving medication for severe psychiatric disorders (e.g., bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, schizophrenia, alcohol dependence, or substance abuse)
  5. Illiterate individuals
  6. Individuals deemed unsuitable for participation in this study by the investigator
  7. Severe cognitive impairment that would interfere with understanding or performing the study interventions
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in K-WAB or PK-WAB-R Aphasia Quotient (AQ) Score

    Change in Aphasia Quotient (AQ) score from baseline to Week 10, measured using the Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery (K-WAB) or the Paradise Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery-Revised (PK-WAB-R). AQ scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better language function. Assessments will be conducted by an independent, evaluator-blinded assessor.

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 10

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in K-WAB or PK-WAB-R Spontaneous Speech Score

    Change from baseline to Week 10 in Spontaneous Speech score measured using the Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery (K-WAB) or the Paradise Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery-Revised (PK-WAB-R). Higher scores indicate better expressive language ability. Assessments will be conducted by an independent, evaluator-blinded assessor.

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 10

  2. Change in K-WAB or PK-WAB-R Auditory Comprehension Score

    Change from baseline to Week 10 in Auditory Comprehension score measured using the Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery (K-WAB) or the Paradise Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery-Revised (PK-WAB-R). Higher scores indicate better language comprehension ability. Assessments will be conducted by an independent, evaluator-blinded assessor.

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 10

  3. Change in K-WAB or PK-WAB-R Repetition Score

    Change from baseline to Week 10 in Repetition score measured using the Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery (K-WAB) or the Paradise Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery-Revised (PK-WAB-R). Higher scores indicate better verbal repetition ability. Assessments will be conducted by an independent, evaluator-blinded assessor.

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 10

  4. Change in K-WAB or PK-WAB-R Naming and Word Finding Score

    Change from baseline to Week 10 in Naming and Word Finding score measured using the Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery (K-WAB) or the Paradise Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery-Revised (PK-WAB-R). Higher scores indicate better lexical retrieval ability. Assessments will be conducted by an independent, evaluator-blinded assessor.

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 10

  5. Mean change in K-WAB or PK-WAB-R Aphasia Quotient (AQ) in the study group

    Mean change from baseline to Week 10 in Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery (K-WAB) or the Paradise Korean version of the Western Aphasia Battery-Revised (PK-WAB-R) Aphasia Quotient (AQ) score in the study group. The AQ score reflects overall language function. Higher scores indicate better overall language function. Assessments will be conducted by an independent, evaluator-blinded assessor.
