Andexanet Alfa: Non-interventional Study in Stroke Units in Germany (DE)
- Conditions
- Intracranial Hemorrhages
- Registration Number
- NCT05127941
- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Essen
- Brief Summary
The multicenter, prospective, observational, non-interventional study conducted in German Stroke Units is investigating patients with intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) under effective anticoagulation with rivaroxaban or apixaban.
The aim of the study is to analyze under routine conditions wether the volume increase of ICH under treatment with rivaroxaban and apixaban can be reduced with the antidote andexanet alfa. Thus, data of patients under effective treatment with rivaroxaban or apixaban and treated with andexanet alfa at baseline will be assessed at the time of onset of ICH, during the hospital stay and during a follow-up by telephone at 30 and 90 days after hospital discharge.
The main objective is defined as the change in size or volume of the hematoma by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with ICH under effective treatment with rivaroxaban and apixaban, who are treated with andexanet alfa. Further objectives comprise evaluations concerning the functional status according to modified Rankin Scale (mRS), changes in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), and occurrences of ICH or new intraventricular bleeding as well as mortality rates.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in size (specified as ml or cm^3) of the intracranial bleeding evaluated by Computed Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) 12-72 hours after initial CT or MRI, further imaging in case of worsened health condition The primary endpoint is the change in size (specified as ml or cm\^3) of the intracranial bleeding evaluated by first CT or MRI between 12-72 hours after initial CT or MRI; further imaging in case of worsened health condition
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Mortality rate after 7, 30 and 90 days und during hospital stay Mortality rate after 7, 30 and 90 days, and intra-hospital mortality rate
Rate of worsened health condition At hospital admission and additionally at 24 hours and 72 hours after admission Rate of worsened health condition defined as change in NIHSS of ≥4 pts compared to initial NIHSS or worsening of NIHSS level of consciousness ≥1 point or increase of the volume of the intracranial bleeding or new intraventricular bleeding or death
Change in severity of stroke 72 hours after admission Change in severity of stroke based on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) 72 hours after admission
Assessment of effective anticoagulation at baseline at baseline Assessment of effective anticoagulation at baseline using PoC anti-fXa assay, intra-hospital decision making for Andexanet alfa administration
Functional status according to modified Rankin Scale (mRS) before ICH, at admission, at discharge, after 30 days, and after 90 days Functional status acc. to modified Rankin Scale (mRS) before ICH, at admission, at discharge, after 30 days, and after 90 days. The mRS ranges from grade 0 (no symptoms) to grade 6 (dead)
Clinical course and outcomes of patients Coagulation parameters will be recorded at hospital admission. Thrombotic events and re-bleeding will be recorded from the date of hospital admission until discharge. The average length of hospital stay is expected to be 10 days Hemostasis will be assessed by coagulation parameters (activated partial thrombin time (aPTT), thrombin time (TT), International Normalized Ratio (INR)) at admission, re-bleeding and thrombotic events (e.g. myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, deep vein thrombosis) will be assessed by AE reporting performed from admission to hospital to discharge
Re-dosing and re-anticoagulation therapy The assessement of re-dosing and re-anticoagulation therapy will take place from the date of hospital admission until the date of discharge. The average length of hospital stay is expected to be 10 days. Resumption of antithrombotic therapy in hospital (incl. type, start date and dose of anticoagulation therapy)
Health care resource utilization (including ICU length of stay) Will be recorded during hospital stay until the date of discharge.The average length of hospital stay is expected to be 10 days. Data regarding ICU length of stay and on resource utilization (Intubated on arrival, Mechanical ventilation, ICH-evacuation surgery, External ventricular drainage, Intraventricular lysis, Osmotherapy)
