Authorised Therapeutic confirmatory (Phase III) Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage

TicAgreLor versus placebo to prevent cerebral ISCHemia in anEuRysmal low grade SAH A double blinded randomised controlled study

EU CTIS ID: 2023-509795-42-00

What this study is testing

To evaluate in patients with a low grade aSAH (WFNS 1 to 3) occurred for less than 72 hours, the effect of 14 days course of ticagrelor (bolus of 180 mg then 90 mg twice daily) vs placebo, initiated at the beginning of the endovascular treatment of the aneurysm, on the ischemic complications. The ischemic complications are defined as peri-procedural symptomatic and asymptomatic thromboembolic events and/or neurological worsening due to delayed cerebral ischemia occurring within 14 days of the endovascular treatment of the aneurysm.

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • -Age 18 – 80 years old
  • -Low grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage defined by a WFNS 1-3
  • Aneurysmal treatment planned to be completed within 72 h after rupture
  • Sacciform aneurysm diameter ≥ 4 mm
  • Ruptured aneurysm treatable by endovascular, endo-saccular technic (stent and flow diverters are not allowed). If the aneurysm responsible of the SAH is difficult to identify, several aneurysms thaht may be related to the SAh can be treated during the procedure.
  • Affiliated person or beneficiary of a social security scheme

You likely can't join if

  • Poor grade aSAH defined as WFNS 4 and 5
  • -Intraparenchymal hematoma associated with SAH
  • Ongoing antiplatelet drug
  • Acute symptomatic hydrocephalus or ventricular derivation
  • -Intra-ventricular hemorrhage on admission CT scan, filling >50% of both lateral ventricles and 3rd and 4th ventricles
  • Pre aSAH mRS ≥ 3
