Complement Inhibition: Attacking the Overshooting Inflammation @Fter Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (CIAO@SAH)
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
C1 Esterase Inhibitor Injection [Cinryze]: C1 Esterase Inhibitor Injection \[Cinryze\]
Placebo: Sodium Chloride /physiological saline (0.9%) in equal volume dosed intravenous
Study summary
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) can lead to devastating outcomes for patients, like cognitive decline. This is caused by early brain injury (EBI) followed by delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). Neuroinflammation, triggered by the complement system, has been investigated to be a key mediator in the pathophysiology of EBI and DCI. Inhibition of the complement system is therefore considered to be a potentially important new treatment for SAH.
This trial aims to study the safety and efficacy of C1-inhibitor Cinryze, an approved inhibitor of the complement system, compared to placebo in patients with SAH. By temporarily blocking the complement system we hypothesize limitation of delayed cerebral ischemia and a more favourable clinical outcome for SAH patients due to a decrease in the inflammatory response.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Number of participants with delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) — To be determined between day 4 and day 14 of admission
Defined as either a new focal neurological impairment, or a decrease of at least 2 points on the Glasgow Coma Scale. This should last for at least 1 hour, is not apparent immediately after aneurysm occlusion, and cannot be attributed to other causes by means of clinical assessment, CT or MRI scanning of the brain, and appropriate laboratory studies. - Number of participants with complications during hospitalization. — Up to 1 year after admission
Complication rate during hospitalization
