NCT ID NCT06402968

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether the drug clevidipine can lower blood pressure quickly and steadily in people having a bleeding stroke (intracerebral hemorrhage). High blood pressure can make the bleeding worse, so getting it under control fast is critical. The trial will compare clevidipine to other standard blood pressure treatments in 1,000 adults, measuring how many reach a safe blood pressure target within one hour.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Clevidipine (an intravenous blood pressure medication)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a faster, more reliable way to control blood pressure during a bleeding stroke, potentially reducing brain damage and improving recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a Phase 4 trial, but the benefit over existing treatments is unproven. The drug may cause side effects like low blood pressure or heart rhythm issues, and results may not apply to all patients.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria 1. Age 18 years or older and less than 100 years. 2. Onset of new neurological deficits within 12 hours at the time of enrollment and IV clevidipine or alternate IV antihypertensive regimen can be initiated within 12 hours of symptom onset. 3. Clinical signs consistent with the diagnosis of stroke, including impairment of language, motor function, cognition, and/or gaze, vision, or neglect. 4. Initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score of 1 or greater. 5. Total GCS score (aggregate of verbal, eye, and motor response scores) of 5 or greater at enrollment 6. Computed Tomography (CT) scan of the brain demonstrates intraparenchymal hematoma with manual hematoma volume measurement \>5 cc (excluding microhemorrhages) 7. Admission SBP greater than and equal to 150 mmHg but less than 220 mmHg on two repeat measurements at least 5 minutes apart, but no more than 10 minutes apart. The reason for exclusion of ICH patients with initial SBP ≥220 mm Hg is based on a post hoc analysis of ATACH-2, which found that patients with initial SBP ≥220 mm Hg (22.8% of the cohort) reported higher rates of neurological deterioration at 24 hours and renal adverse events until day 7 or discharge in patients treated with intensive SBP reduction compared with standard SBP lowering, without any benefit in reducing hematoma expansion at 24 hours or death or severe disability at 90 days. 8. Signed and dated informed consent by subject, legally authorized representative, or surrogate before index hospital discharge for data collection and agreement to participate in 90- and 180-day follow-up visits. 9. Patients with anticoagulant-related ICH are eligible as long as anticoagulant reversal is concurrently undertaken consistent with AHA/ASA guidelines. 10. Patients who will undergo surgical evacuation consistent with AHA/ASA guidelines or local institutional guidelines are eligible unless surgical evacuation is being performed within 6 hours of initiation of IV clevidipine or alternate IV antihypertensive medication regimen. Ultra-early surgery will necessitate use of anesthetic agents which will confound the effect of IV clevidipine or alternate IV antihypertensive medication regimen. Ultra-early surgery/intervention was not used in the minimally invasive catheter evacuation followed by thrombolysis (MISTIE)/ Clot Lysis: Evaluating Accelerated Resolution of Intraventricular Hemorrhage (CLEAR) trials, which required ICH patients to undergo a repeat CT scan after 6 hours to document absence of any hematoma expansion (with ≤5 mL hematoma growth) compared to a previous CT scan prior to any surgical intervention. 11. Patients requiring external ventricular drainage consistent with AHA/ASA guidelines or local institutional guidelines are eligible. Exclusion Criteria 1. Time of symptom onset cannot be reliably assessed. 2. Previously known neoplasms, arteriovenous malformation (AVM), or aneurysms. 3. Intracerebral hematoma considered to be related to trauma. 4. ICH located in infratentorial regions such as pons or midbrain (cerebellar ICH is not an exclusion criteria). 5. Subject considered a candidate for immediate surgical intervention by the neurosurgery service. 6. Pregnancy, parturition within previous 30 days, or active lactation. 7. Any history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy except anticoagulant related ICH. 8. Platelet count of less than 50,000/mm3. 9. Known sensitivity to nicardipine or clevidipine. 10. Patient's living will precludes aggressive ICU management. 11. Patients with allergies to soybeans, soy products, eggs, or egg products. 12. Defective lipid metabolism such as pathologic hyperlipemia, lipoid nephrosis, or acute pancreatitis if it is accompanied by hyperlipidemia. 13. Patients with severe aortic stenosis.
