NCT02661672

Brief Summary

Objective: The primary objective of this multicenter prospective registry is to provide additional safety, technical outcomes and clinical outcomes data for minimally invasive endoscopic surgery (MIES) with Apollo or Artemis for the evacuation of supratentorial brain hemorrhage in adult patients who do not qualify for the concurrent INVEST Feasibility randomized controlled trial at active INVEST centers.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Number of Participants With Modified Rankin Score (mRS) ≤ 3 or mRS > 3

    Clinical Efficacy Endpoint: global disability assessed via the modified Rankin score (mRS). 180-day global disability assessed via the modified Rankin score (mRS), categorized as either mRS ≤ 3 or mRS \> 3

    180 days

  • Number of Participants With Surgical Success Rate

    Technical Efficacy Endpoint measured by rate of surgical success. Surgical Success Rate is defined as reduction to \< 15 cc total volume AND \>60% reduction in hemorrhage volume on immediate post-treatment CT scan

    immediately post-procedure

  • Number of Participants With Surgical Success Rate Regarding IVH

    Technical Efficacy Endpoint measured by rate of surgical success. Surgical Success Rate is defined as Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH): mGraeb score of \< 5 on day 7 CT scan

    7 days post-procedure

  • Rate of Mortality

    30 days post procedure

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Modified Rankin Score (mRS) at 30 Days

    30 days post-procedure

  • Modified Rankin Score (mRS) at 90 Days

    90 days post-procedure

  • Length of Hospital Stay

    average of 17 days

  • Number of Participants Requiring VPS

    average of 17 days

Study Arms (1)

Patients with Brain Hemorrhage

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects will receive best medical management for ICH plus they will receive the MIES surgery and use of the Apollo or Artemis System for clot evacuation.

Device: Apollo DeviceDevice: Artemis Device

Interventions

The Apollo system has been cleared for the controlled aspiration of soft tissue and/or fluid during endoscopically guided neurosurgery of the ventricular system.

Also known as: ICH - Apollo System
Patients with Brain Hemorrhage

The Artemis Neuro Evacuation Device is used for the controlled aspiration of tissue and/or fluid during surgery of the Ventricular System or Cerebrum in conjunction with a Penumbra Aspiration Pump. The Penumbra Aspiration Pump is indicated as a vacuum source for the Penumbra Aspiration Systems.

Patients with Brain Hemorrhage

Eligibility Criteria

Age22 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patient age 022 years or older
  • Supratentorial brain hemorrhage, which may be:
  • Intracerebral (ICH)
  • Primarily Intracerebral (ICH) with a component of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH)
  • Primarily intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) with a component of ICH
  • Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH)
  • Patient does not qualify for the concurrent INVEST Feasibility study

You may not qualify if:

  • Imaging
  • Expanding hemorrhage on stability CT/MR scan
  • "Spot sign" identified on CTA (May perform a second CTA at 12 hours to demonstrate resolution)
  • Hemorrhagic lesion such as a vascular malformation (cavernous malformation, AVM etc), aneurysm, neoplasm
  • Hemorrhagic conversion of an underlying ischemic stroke
  • Infratentorial hemorrhage
  • Midbrain extension/involvement
  • Coagulation Issues
  • Absolute and imminent (within 7 days of treatment) requirement for long-term, full-dose, anti-coagulation (e.g., Mechanical valve replacement (bio-prostatic valve is permitted), high risk atrial fibrillation)
  • Known hereditary or acquired hemorrhagic diathesis, coagulation factor deficiency
  • Uncorrected platelet count \< 100 x 103 cells/mm3 or known platelet dysfunction
  • INR \> 1.45, elevated prothrombin time or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), which cannot be corrected or otherwise accounted for (i.e., lupus anti-coagulant)
  • Patient Factors
  • High risk condition for ischemic stroke (high risk Afib (e.g., mitral stenosis with Afib), symptomatic carotid stenosis)
  • Requirement for emergent surgical decompression or uncontrolled ICP after EVD
  • +7 more criteria
