Summary

A randomized controlled trial of ultra-early, minimally invasive, hematoma evacuation versus standard care within 8 hours of intracerebral hemorrhage. Patients presenting to the emergency department with stroke due to supratentorial, spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage \>20mL volume will be assessed to determine their eligibility for randomization into the trial. If the patient gives informed consent they will be randomized 50:50 using central computerized allocation to minimally invasive hematoma evacuation using the Aurora surgiscope and evacuator (Integra Lifesciences) versus standard medical therapy. The trial is prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint (PROBE) design with seamless phase 2b-3 transition if the intermediate endpoint (successful hematoma evacuation) is met in analysis of the first 52 patients. Adaptive sample size re-estimation (Mehta and Pocock) will be performed when 160 patients have completed 6 month follow-up (minimum sample size 240, maximum sample size 434).
