Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Study Subjects With Life-threatening Thromboembolic Complicationsthrough day 4 after completion of study drug administrationThromboembolic complications are defined as development of (1) acute myocardial ischemia; or (2) acute cerebral ischemia; or (3) acute pulmonary embolism
PrimaryNumber of Subjects With Hematoma Growth Among Spot Sign Positive Subjects at 24 Hours.From baseline to 24 hours
Comparison of only the subjects with a positive spot sign with respect to a categorical measure of hematoma growth from baseline to 24 hours. the outcome of interest is the percent of subjects with hematoma growth \> 33% or \> 6 cc increase in volume, from baseline to 24 hours.
PrimaryThe Sensitivity of the Spot Sign for Predicting Hematoma GrowthBaseline head CT scan within 5 hours of stroke, followed by a CT angiogram. Hematoma growth determined by comparison with a head CT scan performed at 24 hours.
The outcome measure is hematoma growth. Groups 2 and 3 only will be compared as Group 1 had administration of study drug which was hypothesized to reduce hematoma growth. Sensitivity was estimated. Sensitivity or true positive rate is defined as, the number of strokes correctly identified as spot positive according to the "gold standard" / the total number of strokes identified as spot positive
PrimaryThe Specificity of the Spot Sign for Predicting Hematoma GrowthBaseline head CT scan within 5 hours of stroke, followed by a CT angiogram. Hematoma growth determined by comparison with a head CT scan performed at 24 hours.
The outcome measure is hematoma growth. Groups 2 and 3 only will be compared as group 1 had administration of study drug which was hypothesized to reduce hematoma growth. Specificity was estimated. Specificity or true negative rate is defined as, the number of non-spot positive (spot negative) strokes according to the "gold standard" / the total number of strokes identified as not spot positive.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Other Potentially Study Drug Related Thromboembolic Complications Such as Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT) and Elevations in Troponin Not Associated With ECG Changesthrough day 4 after completion of study drug
Evidence of a deep venous thrombosis or an elevation of troponin within 4 days of completion of study drug administration that are not associated with ECG changes that could be related to the study drug
SecondaryNumber of Spot Positive Subjects With 90-day Outcome of Modified Rankin Scale Score >= 590 days (+/- 7 days) from time of study enrollment
The modified Rankin Scale (0 is best, 5 is worst - non dead, 6 is dead) was used to define a bad outcome; categorized as a score \>=5 versus \<5. As the aim of the study was to examine the effect of rFIV!!a only the randomized groups, 1 and 2, defined as spot positive by CTA were compared.
Secondary
Number of Participants With Agreement Between the Clinical Site Radiologists and the Study Radiologist With Respect to Identification of a Positive Spot Sign or the Absence of Positive Spot Sign on CTA
Baseline head CT scan within 5 hours, followed by a CT angiogram. Hematoma growth determined by comparison with a head CT scan performed at 24 hours.
The CTA was originally interpreted by the site radiologist so that subjects could be identified as having a positive spot sign for eligibility for randomization. The positive spot sign is indicative that there is potential for further hemorrhagic growth and these subjects were thus eligible to be randomized to receive investigational drug or placebo. The CTA scans were subsequently assessed by the study radiologist and compared for agreement.
SecondaryPercent Change in Total Hemorrhage Volume (Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH) Plus Intraventricular Hemorrhage (IVH)).24 hours (+/- 3 hours) from baseline CT scan
Percent change in total volume (intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) plus intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH)) from baseline CT to 24 hour CT. Percent change is expressed as difference between 24 hour total volume and baseline total volume divided by baseline total volume, expressed as a percentage. In order to examine the effect of rFIVIIa, the randomized groups, Group 1 and Group 2 only were statistically compared.
