The question was: Why was Cerestat not mentioned in the article?

Short answer to your question is time, space and stage of development.

As you may know, there are a number of neuroprotectants in various stages of
development. Given space limitations, I couldn't mention them all.
Citicoline and lubeluzole, I am told by a number of stroke researchers,
currently seem to be furthest along in terms of Phase III data. There was a
Phase I study of Cerestat (aptiganel HC1) presented last Thursday in Anaheim,
and also a Phase III update of Cerestat that day. Unfortunately, I did not
know the results of those trials when I wrote today's article. (I did not go
to Anaheim.) Cerestat was not represented among the clinical trials presented
Saturday morning. I will be interested in following the progress of Cerestat
as well as the others.

Thanx for your interest.
