Abstract

The invention provides a combination treatment for ischemia conditions in or otherwise affecting the CNS, such as stroke. The treatment involves administration of a PSD-95 inhibitor and performing reperfusion therapy (e.g., by administration of tPA). Administering a PSD-95 inhibitor in combination with reperfusion therapy increases the efficacy of the reperfusion therapy and/or slows the decline in efficacy of reperfusion therapy with time after onset of ischemia thus extending the window in which reperfusion therapy can be administered.
