Trial summary

Minocycline has been found to reduce cerebral edema secondary to cerebral hemorrhage, promote hematoma absorption, and shorten hematoma absorption time; clinical studies have been conducted to confirm the safety in the treatment, but no significant hematoma absorption effect was seen with short duration of drug use.

About this study

Official title: Study of Minocycline Accelerated Intracerebral Hemorrhage Absorption (MACHA)

Minocycline has been found to reduce cerebral edema secondary to cerebral hemorrhage, promote hematoma absorption, and shorten hematoma absorption time; clinical studies have been conducted to confirm the safety in the treatment, but no significant hematoma absorption effect was seen with short duration of drug use. Therefore, the investigators propose to conduct a multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial to determine its accelerating effect on hematoma absorption.

Read the detailed description

There is a significant increase in the incidence of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, combined with a high mortality rate. Surgical treatment is mainly used to remove intracerebral hematoma with a supratentorial volume greater than 20ml, and most intracerebral hematomas below 20mL are left to absorb on their own, and the absorption time of such hematomas is about 4 to 6 weeks. Minocycline is a tetracycline antibiotic routinely used in clinical practice for the treatment of bacterial infection and acne.

It has been found that it can not only reduce iron overload after intracerebral hemorrhage and inhibit neuroinflammation, but also reduce secondary cerebral edema. Some animal experiments have confirmed that it can promote hematoma absorption through iron chelation and shorten hematoma absorption time; clinical studies have been conducted to confirm the safety in the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage, but no significant effect has been seen with short duration of drug use. No clinical RCT study has been conducted to confirm its accelerating effect on the absorption of adult intracerebral hematoma. Therefore, the investigators propose to conduct a multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial to determine its accelerating effect on hematoma absorption, and this study will have important clinical practical value.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Minocycline and starch in people with Intracerebral Hemorrhage, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine.

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 4 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Reng Ren (+8613486111524, renreng1203@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Improvement in modified Rankin Scale score at 90 days of onset (time frame: 90 days). 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 29 Nov 2022.
