E.1.2 Medical condition or disease under investigation |
E.1.2 | Version | 14.1 |
E.1.2 | Level | LLT |
E.1.2 | Classification code | 10022753 |
E.1.2 | Term | Intracerebral haemorrhage |

E.1.3 | Condition being studied is a rare disease | No |
E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To assess whether tranexamic acid is safe and reduces death or dependency after primary intracerebral haemorrhage (PICH). |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To assess the effect of tranexamic acid on secondary outcomes: clinical outcomes, safety outcomes, costs and radiological efficacy. |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Adult (≥18 years) patients with acute PICH within 8 hours of stroke onset. (Where stroke onset time is unknown, the time of when last known well will be used.) |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1) Patients with intracerebral haemorrhage secondary to anticoagulation, thrombolysis or known underlying structural abnormality such as arterial venous malformation, aneurysm, tumour, venous thrombosis as cause for the intracerebral haemorrhage.. Note it is not necessary to exclude an underlying abnormality prior to enrolment, but where a secondary cause of haemorrhage is known, these patients should not be recruited. 2) Patients for whom tranexamic acid is thought to be contraindicated. 3) Patients with pre-morbid dependency (mRS>4). 4) Participation in another drug trial concurrently. 5) Pre-stroke life expectancy <3 months (eg. advanced metastatic cancer). 6) Coma – Glasgow coma scale <5

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
To assess whether tranexamic acid is safe and reduces death or dependency after primary intracerebral haemorrhage (PICH). |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Death or dependency (ordinal shift on mRS) at day 90 will be compared between tranexamic acid and saline. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
1. Neurological impairment (NIHSS) at day 7 or discharge if sooner. 2. Disability (Barthel index) at day 90, 3. Quality of Life (EuroQol) at day 90, 4. Cognition at day 90. 5. Costs: length of stay in hospital, re-admission, institutionalisation. 6. Radiological efficacy/safety (CT scan): change in haematoma volume from baseline to day 2, haematoma location and new infarction.
