About this study

Official title: COrtical Superficial Siderosis and REcurrent Lobar Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy.

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a major cause of lobar intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in the elderly with high risk of recurrence.

The investigators aim to determine the relationship between cortical superficial siderosis (cSS), a MRI hemorrhagic marker of CAA and the risk of symptomatic ICH recurrence in a multicentric prospective cohort of patients with acute lobar ICH related to CAA. The investigators hypothesize that patients with cSS have an increased risk of recurrent symptomatic ICH relative to those without cSS.

Read the detailed description

Patients with acute lobar ICH fulfilling the Boston criteria for probable or possible CAA will be enrolled within 30 days after ICH onset. Brain MRI performed at baseline will be analyzed blinded to clinical data. Patients with presence of cSS will be compared with those without cSS.

During a systematic follow-up of 24 months, patients will undergo neurological, neuropsychological and MRI evaluation. The investigators will compare the rate of recurrent symptomatic ICH at 24 months in patients with vs. without cSS.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Recurrent symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage at 24 months

    Recurrent symptomatic intracerebral haemorrhage is defined as a further intracerebral hemorrhage documented by CT scan or MRI, associated with new neurologic symptoms

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Recurrent symptomatic ICH at 12 months

    Recurrent symptomatic intracerebral haemorrhage is defined as a further intracerebral hemorrhage documented by CT scan or MRI, associated with new neurologic symptoms.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Transient Focal Neurological Episodes (TFNE) at 12 and 24 months

    TFNE was defined as transient (≤24 hours), with fully resolving, focal neurological symptoms that had no known alternative explanation other than CAA (e.g., structural brain lesion, atrial fibrillation, extracranial, or intracranial stenosis)

    Measured: 12 and 24 months

  3. mortality or dependance at 12 and 24 months

    Mortality and dependence defined by a modified Rankin scale >2

    Measured: 12 and 24 months

  4. Cognitive decline at 12 and 24 months

    moderate or severe vascular cognitive disorders (VCD) according to the VASCOG criteria.

    Measured: 12 and 24 months

  5. New MRI hemorrhagic lesion at 12 months

    Presence of new symptomatic or asymptomatic hemorrhagic lesion (ICH, microbleeds, convexity subarachnoid hemorrhage) on follow-up MRI at 12 months

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Extent of cortical superficial siderosis at 12 months

    Extent of cSS is assessed on follow up MRI at 12 months according to the current guidelines: 0: no cSS; 1: focal cSS (restricted to ≤3 sulci); 2: disseminated cSS (≥4 sulci).

    Measured: 12 months

  7. frequency of APOE ε2 and ε4 allele

    frequency of both ε2 and ε4 allele on Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype at baseline

    Measured: baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing neurological, neuropsychological and MRI evaluation in people with Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, run by University Hospital, Toulouse at 4 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Recurrent symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage at 24 months (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Dec 2025.
