Filter by:This study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of a single escalating dose and repeated doses of CN-105 in healthy adult participants. There will be about 48 subjects, 36 active and 12 placebo.
This is single-arm, open-label, safety and feasibility pilot study of ɛ-aminocaproic acid in ICH patients. Consecutive ICH volume with hematoma volume less than 30 mL by ABC/2 method presenting within 3 hours of symptom onset, meeting all inclusion criteria, and without exclusions will be consented and enrolled. Subjects will receive 5 grams of intravenous ɛ-aminocaproic acid over 1 hour, followed by the same at 1 mg/hour for 23 hours. Comupted tomography (CT) head will be done at 24 hours in order to follow hematoma size. Electrocardiogram, lower extremity venous Doppler and NIHSS will also be done at 24 hours. The patient will be followed in the clinic 30-90 days post discharge for functional status.
Haemorrhagic strokes represent about 10-15 % of all strokes and 30,000 cases per year in France. The 30-day death rate ranges from 30 to 55% (50% of deaths occurring within 48 hours). Currently, no urgent medical or surgical treatment has been shown to improve functional or vital prognosis. Clinical epileptic seizures frequency in acute intracerebral haemorrhage has been estimated between 4% and 16% but the occurrence of subclinical epileptic seizures (detected on the electroencephalogram (EEG) only) could be much more frequent (28 % to 40 %). Some studies have suggested that early repeated epileptic seizures may be associated with a worse neurological prognosis. Repeated epileptic seizures occurring in the acute phase may increase brain oedema, worsen, hypoxia and may lead to cellular death in the injured brain tissue. Thus, prevention of early epileptic seizures may improve neurological outcome. However, the efficacy of a systematic prophylactic antiepileptic treatment on clinical and subclinical epileptic seizures has not been evaluated in the setting of intracerebral haemorrhage. The current European guidelines recommend the use of antiepileptic drugs only when epileptic seizures occur. Primary objective: PEACH is a randomized controlled trial aiming at evaluating the impact of systematic prophylactic antiepileptic treatment with levetiracetam versus placebo in acute supratentorial spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage. The primary endpoint is the occurrence of at least one clinical or electrical epileptic seizure recorded on continuous 48h holter EEG. Secondary Objectives:This study also aims to assess: Ä The efficacy of prophylactic treatment with levetiracetam on the number of EEG seizures, on the total duration of epileptic seizures continuously recorded on EEG, on the occurrence of some paroxysmal EEG patterns, on the number of clinical seizures occurred during 72 hours of diagnosis, on the occurrence of early (day-0 to day-30 ) and late (from day-30 to 12 months) clinical seizures, on the functional prognosis at 3 , 6 and 12 months evaluated by the modified Rankin scale , on the cerebral oedema and mass effect evaluated by comparing the admission brain CT scan with the control CT scan performed at 72 hours, on the neurological status as assessed by the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale at 72 hours , 1 month and 3 months and on the quality of life measured by the Stroke impact Scale at 3, 6 and 12 months. Ä The frequency of side effects related to treatment with levetiracetam (anxiety and depression assessed by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale at 1 and 3 months) Sample Size: 104 patients will be recruited over 2 years.
The purpose of this study is to determine if computed tomography angiography can predict which individuals with intracerebral hemorrhage will experience significant growth in the size of the hemorrhage. For individuals who are at high risk for hemorrhage growth, the study will compare the drug Tranexamic acid to placebo to determine the effect and safety of on intracerebral hemorrhage growth
The aim of this project is development of a comprehensive, prospective, multinational, multicenter, hospital-based, data repository for patients with intracerebral hemorrhage.
There is a marked lack of evidence on the optimal prevention of ischaemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation and a recent intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) during treatment with oral anticoagulation. These patients are currently treated with vitamin K antagonists, DOACs, antiplatelet drugs, or no antithrombotic treatment, depending on personal and institutional preferences. Treatment with a direct oral anticoagulant like apixaban might be an attractive alternative in terms of a low risk of recurrent ICH, while at the same time being effective for the prevention of ischaemic stroke. This study aims to obtain reliable estimates of the rates of vascular death or non-fatal stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation and a recent anticoagulation-associated intracerebral haemorrhage who are treated with apixaban versus those who are treated with antiplatelet drugs or no antithrombotic drug at all. This study has a multi-centre, phase II, randomised, open-label clinical trial with blinded outcome assessment design.
The Registry of Acute Stroke Under Novel Oral Anticoagulants-Prime (RASUNOA-Prime), an investigator-initiated study, is a German multicenter, prospective, observational registry. It is performed at about 50 certified stroke-units and supported by an unrestricted grant from different pharmaceutical companies to the Heidelberg University Hospital. RASUNOA-Prime is designed to assess the emergency management of acute ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) under different anticoagulation schemes pre stroke: Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOAC), Vitamin K antagonists (VKA), and no anticoagulation.
Views for surgery method selection of intracerebral hemorrhage are still controversial. Since the application of neuroendoscopic technique in intraventricular hemorrhage was confirmed effective and safe, some investigators have attempted to use endoscopic strategies to evacuate intracerebral hematomas. Some significant advances have also been reported in endoscopic hematoma evacuation when compared to conventional craniotomy. However, it is still crucial to implement a prospective and controlled study to evaluate the efficiency and safety of endoscopic technique in the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage. In this study, the investigators will exclusively select some patients with intracerebral hemorrhage in the basal ganglia region. This study will compare the efficacy and safety of endoscopic surgery versus stereotactic aspiration on neurologic outcomes for patients with intracerebral hemorrhage.
Study I: CROMIS-2 (AF) Prospective cohort study of patients anticoagulated after cardioembolic stroke An observational inception cohort study (n=1425) of patients throughout the United Kingdom (UK) - (79 hospitals) started on best practice oral anticoagulant (without prior use) for presumed cardioembolic ischaemic stroke due to non-valvular AF with follow up for the occurrence of intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) and ischaemic stroke for an average of two years. The main baseline exposures (risk factors of interest) are the presence of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and genetic polymorphisms in candidate genes with potential functional relevance to ICH risk. Study II: CROMIS-2 (ICH) Observational and genetics study of intracerebral haemorrhage The investigators will also recruit 600 patients admitted to participating centres with ICH (with a target of at least 300 anticoagulant-related ICH cases) and collect DNA to increase the power of the genetic studies. The investigators will collect clinical and imaging data from these ICH cases to investigate risk factors associated with anticoagulant-related ICH compared to non anticoagulant-related ICH.
The overall purpose of this study is to evaluate how effective Thromboelastography (TEG) is on identifying ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke patients at increased risk for bleeding after receiving tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), as well as on differentiating between patients in whom optimal thrombolysis has been achieved, and those whom it has not.
