Trial Outcomes & Findings for Minimally Invasive Surgery Plus Rt-PA for ICH Evacuation Phase III (NCT NCT01827046)

NCT ID: NCT01827046

Last Updated: 2019-09-27

Results Overview

Dichotomized, adjudicated, cross-sectional modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score 0-3 vs. 4-6 at 365 days post-ictus, adjusting for baseline (pre-randomization) variables used in covariate adaptive randomization as well as the clinically established severity variables IVH size and ICH location (lobar or deep). Ictus refers to symptom onset. The mRS is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. It is scored from: 0=No symptoms at all, 1=No significant disability, 2=Slight disability, 3=Moderate disability, 4=Moderately severe disability, 5=Severe disability and 6=death. Dichotomized scores are: 0-3=No symptoms to moderate disability requiring some assistance; 4-6=Moderately severe disability requiring complete assistance to death.

Subjects randomized to the Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) plus recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) management arm will undergo minimally invasive surgery followed by up to 9 doses of 1.0 mg of rt-PA (Activase/Alteplase/CathFlo) for intracerebral hemorrhage clot resolution. rt-PA: Up to 9 doses of 1.0 mg of rt-PA will be administered through the catheter that was placed directly into the intracerebral hemorrhage using minimally invasive surgery.
Medical Management
Subjects randomized to medical management will receive the standard medical therapies for the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage, which includes ICU care only and no planned surgical intervention.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 365

Population: Includes participants with mRS scores available at day 365. Number and proportions reported refer to number of participants and proportions with Modified Rankin Score 0-3

Dichotomized, adjudicated, cross-sectional modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score 0-3 vs. 4-6 at 365 days post-ictus, adjusting for baseline (pre-randomization) variables used in covariate adaptive randomization as well as the clinically established severity variables IVH size and ICH location (lobar or deep). Ictus refers to symptom onset. The mRS is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. It is scored from: 0=No symptoms at all, 1=No significant disability, 2=Slight disability, 3=Moderate disability, 4=Moderately severe disability, 5=Severe disability and 6=death. Dichotomized scores are: 0-3=No symptoms to moderate disability requiring some assistance; 4-6=Moderately severe disability requiring complete assistance to death.

Population: Those with non-missing mRS scores at 365 days post ictus

Dichotomized, cross-sectional extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (eGOS) score upper good recovery (UGR) through upper severe disability (US) vs. lower severe disability (LS) through death at 365 days post ictus, adjusting for baseline (pre-randomization) variables used in covariate adaptive randomization as well as the clinically established severity variables IVH size and ICH location (lobar or deep). The eGOS is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. It is scored as: 1=Death, 2=Vegetative state, 3=Lower severe disability, 4=Upper severe disability, 5=Lower moderate disability, 6=Upper moderate disability, 7=Lower good recovery, 8=Upper good recovery. Dichotomous variable coding is as follows: 1=codes 4-8, 0=codes 1-3.

It is a marked scale where subjects draw a line to indicate their health, with end points of 0 (the worst health you can imagine) and 100 (the best health you can imagine).

By group comparison of EQ-5D at day 365 post ictus. The EuroQol 5 Dimensional Scale (Eq-5D) is a self-reported measure of health status. It is arranged to assess domains related to mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. For each domain, codes were 1=no problems, 2=some problems, 3=extreme problems, and 9=unknown. Having a problem in at least 1 domain was coded as 1 (originally represented by 2 or 3) and no problems as 0 (originally represented by 1) .

MIS Plus Rt-PA Management
n=250 Participants
Subjects randomized to the MIS plus rt-PA management arm will undergo minimally invasive surgery followed by up to 9 doses of 1.0 mg of rt-PA (Activase/Alteplase/CathFlo) for intracerebral hemorrhage clot resolution. rt-PA: Up to 9 doses of 1.0 mg of rt-PA will be administered through the catheter that was placed directly into the intracerebral hemorrhage using minimally invasive surgery.
