About this trial

This is an phase III prospective, multi-center, open-label, randomized controlled trial (RCT) with blinded endpoint assessment. It plans to enroll 768 subjects with spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage, who will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the investigational arm (stereotactic minimally invasive puncture for intracerebral hemorrhage combined with TNK liquefaction drainage, single TNK dose of 0.5mg per time or the standard medical treatment group.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

. Age 18 to 80 years, any gender.

. Clinically confirmed acute spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), with diagnostic CT completed within 24 hours of symptom onset (for patients with unknown time of onset or wake-up stroke, the time from the last known well to symptom detection is used as the presumed onset time).

. CT-confirmed supratentorial ICH with hematoma volume calculated by ABC/2 method between 25 mL and 60 mL (inclusive).

. National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score ≥ 6.

Disqualifiers

. Brainstem or cerebellar hemorrhage; or thalamic hemorrhage with significant midbrain shift accompanied by third nerve palsy or unreactive dilated pupils.

. Irreversible brainstem dysfunction (bilateral fixed, dilated pupils and decerebrate posturing).

. Secondary ICH caused by: head trauma, arteriovenous malformation (AVM), moyamoya disease, intracranial aneurysm, coagulation disorders (hereditary or acquired hemorrhagic diathesis, hemophilia, coagulation factor deficiency, leukemia, etc.), hemorrhagic transformation of cerebral infarction, or tumor; multiple intracranial hemorrhages, subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), primary intraventricular hemorrhage, drug-induced hemorrhagic stroke, subdural hemorrhage, epidural hemorrhage.

. Significant abnormalities in the following laboratory parameters:(1)International normalized ratio (INR) > 1.4; any irreversible coagulopathy or known coagulation disorder that cannot be corrected with procoagulants to maintain INR ≤ 1.4. (2) Severe hepatic insufficiency: aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≥ 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN). (3) Severe renal insufficiency: estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 30 ml/min/1.73m². (4)Hemoglobin < 90 g/L.5)Platelet count < 100 × 10⁹/L.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Stereotactic thrombolysis with Tenecteplase

    Procedure/Surgery

    Stereotactic thrombolysis with Tenecteplase for ICH is a minimally invasive method for evacuation hematoma. The hematoma puncture target is identified via CT imaging before surgery. After local anesthesia and sedation, stereotactic minimally invasive surgery is performed with the Leksell stereotactic frame. A postoperative CT scan is immediately conducted to confirm the absence of intracranial rebleeding before administering tenecteplase into the hematoma. Tenecteplase is fully diluted in 2 mL of saline and injected into the hematoma cavity via an irrigation catheter. The drainage tube is clamped for 1 hour before opening (early opening is permitted if necessary). The single dose of TNK is 0.5 mg and can be administered with a maximum of 2 dose in every 24 hours. The target hematoma clearance criteria is: residual hematoma volume ≤10 mL or ≤20% of the initial volume.
