Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study consists of 2 parts: the first part is to conduct a multicenter retrospective analysis of more than 1000 acute ICH patients treated by conservative observation from 33 centers in China to create a predictive model of intracerebral hemorrhage growth based on clinical, blood, genetic, imaging, and pharmacological factors; the second part is to validate the efficacy of the minimally invasive surgery, including stereotactic thrombolysis and endoscopic surgery, in 300 eligible patients with high risk of hemorrhage growth according to the first part results in a prospective multicenter cohort study.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) accounts for 2 million strokes worldwide per year and is the deadliest subtype of stroke with a 1-year mortality rate up to 50%. Given the high morbidity and mortality of this disease process, surgical options have been repeatedly evaluated in large multicenter randomized controlled trials that unfortunately have not demonstrated improved outcomes. Time to treatment is a factor that has been shown to carry enormous weight in the treatment of ischemic stroke but has not yet been demonstrated to play a role in hemorrhagic stroke. On the other hand, Intracerebral hemorrhage growth in early-stage is associated with the poor clinical outcome. Thus, investigators assume that minimally invasive surgery in early-stage ICH patients with high risk of hemorrhage growth may improve the long-term outcomes. In the first part, the investigators will review more than 1000 early-stage ICH patients from 33 centers within the last 5 years in China to create a predictive model of intracerebral hemorrhage growth based on clinical, blood, genetic, imaging, and pharmacological factors. The "early-stage" means 24 hours from symptom onset to baseline imaging. The "hemorrhage growth" is defined as an increase in intracerebral hemorrhage volume between baseline and repeat imaging of more than 6 mL or more than 33%. The second part is to validate the efficacy of the minimally invasive surgery in patients with high risk of hemorrhage growth according to the first part results in a prospective multicenter cohort study. Endoscopic surgery and stereotactic thrombolysis (150 patients) will be compared with conventional treatment (150 patients), including medical treatment and conventional craniotomy. Clinical data and laboratory data will be collected by electric case report form (CRF) and uploaded online by each neurosurgery center to form the prospective clinical database in First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University. This cohort follow-up study will be across a 3-year period with a 2 years interval of enrollment and 1 year follow up for each patient.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Early minimally invasive surgery group

For patients in minimally invasive surgery group, intracranial hematoma will be removed by intraoperative stereotactic computer tomography-guided endoscopic surgery, or surgical aspiration followed by alteplase clot irrigation (1·0 mg every 8 h for up to nine doses). CTA will be performed before operation in all the patients for intraoperative navigation, and the minimally invasive surgery will be performed within 24 hours after intracerebral hemorrhage onset.

Minimally invasive surgery

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Intracranial hematoma will be removed by intraoperative stereotactic computer tomography-guided endoscopic surgery, or surgical aspiration followed by alteplase clot irrigation (1·0 mg every 8 h for up to nine doses). CTA will be performed before operation in all the patients for intraoperative navigation, and the minimally invasive surgery will be performed within 24 hours after intracerebral hemorrhage onset.

conventional treatment group

Eligible patients not accepting early minimally invasive surgery are classified as the conventional treatment group. Conventional treatment includes medical treatment and conventional craniotomy. According to the intention-to-treat principle, patients treated by minimally invasive surgery beyond the 24 hours interval after ICH onset are also classified as conventional treatment group.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Emergent CT showed a spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (patient with a small amount of intraventricular hemorrhage is eligible);
* Patients should have undergone baseline CT scan within 48 hours after hemorrhage onset and repeated fewer than 48 hours after the baseline CT;
* Patients without herniation.
* Patients were treated by observation before hemorrhage growth (if happened).


* Emergent CT showed a spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (patient with a small amount of intraventricular hemorrhage is eligible);
* Patients without herniation meet the clinical uncertainty principle as follows: the responsible neurosurgeon is uncertain about the benefits of surgery.
* Patients should have undergone baseline CT scan within 24 hours after hemorrhage onset; the volume of the hematoma is more than 20 ml and less than 100ml on the first CT scan.
* Patients with a Glasgow coma score of 5 or more.
* Informed consent, and willing to accept long-term follow-up.

Exclusion Criteria

* Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage secondary to an underlying structural cause identified by brain imaging, (ie, vascular malformation, aneurysm, tumor);
* The time from symptom onset to baseline imaging was not known in hours, clinical information or lab results was not enough to determine the growth of the hematoma or to perform statistical analysis;
* Patients had accepted acute treatment that might have reduced intracerebral hemorrhage volume (ie, surgical evacuation, external ventricular drainage, lumbar puncture).
2. Prospective part


* Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage secondary to an underlying structural cause identified by brain imaging, (ie, vascular malformation, aneurysm, tumor);
* patients had a cerebellar hemorrhage or extension of a supratentorial hemorrhage into the brainstem;
* patients had severe pre-existing physical or mental disability or severe comorbidity that might interfere with the assessment of outcome.
* Severe coagulopathy, INR cannot be reversed to less than or equal to 1.5
* Patients during pregnancy or lactation.
