Brain bleed breakthrough? Clot-Busting drug shows promise in small trial

NCT ID NCT00823485

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether giving a clot-busting drug directly into the brain's fluid spaces could save lives after a severe brain bleed caused by a burst aneurysm. Nineteen patients with heavy bleeding inside the brain's chambers received the treatment. The main goal was to see if it reduced deaths within 30 days, and the secondary goal was to see if it lowered long-term disability.
