Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Tolerability as Assessed by the Number of Participants Who Stop Study Medication Due to Adverse Event Possibly Associated With Study Drug

    90 days

  • Mortality

    90 days

  • Modified Rankin Score

    The Modified Rankin Score (mRS) is scored as follows: 0 - No symptoms. 1. \- No significant disability. Able to carry out all usual activities, despite some symptoms. 2. \- Slight disability. Able to look after own affairs without assistance, but unable to carry out all previous activities. 3. \- Moderate disability. Requires some help, but able to walk unassisted. 4. \- Moderately severe disability. Unable to attend to own bodily needs without assistance, and unable to walk unassisted. 5. \- Severe disability. Requires constant nursing care and attention, bedridden, incontinent. 6. \- Dead.

    90 days

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)

    baseline (in hospital)

  • Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage
  • Presentation to hospital within 72 hours of symptoms
  • Fisher grade 3 hemorrhage (thick subarachnoid clot) on initial computed tomography (CT) scan
  • Hunt and Hess grade 1-5 at time of randomization
  • Presence of a cerebral aneurysm on computed tomographic angiography (CTA) or Angiogram for which clipping or coiling is possible
  • Ability to obtain medication within 36 hours of presentation

You may not qualify if:

  • History of severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score of 10-15)
  • History of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma
  • History of dementia
  • Co-morbid conditions likely to complicate therapy, including clinically significant arrhythmia, acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), autoimmune disease, malignancy, and expected mortality within 72 hours
  • Expected mortality within 72 hours as determined by PI, treating neurointensivist and neurosurgeon. (Clinically manifested by no attempt at securing aneurysm)
  • Females who are pregnant.
