Chronic Subdural Hematoma Treatment With Intra-Arterial Bevacizumab Injection

Chronic Subdural Hematoma Treatment With Avastin® (Bevacizumab) Intra-Arterial Injection: A Non-Randomized, Open-Label Phase 1/2 Clinical Trial

Chronic Subdural Hematoma Treatment With Intra-Arterial Bevacizumab Injection (NCT06510582) is a Phase 1 / Phase 2 interventional studying Chronic Subdural Hematoma, sponsored by The Cooper Health System. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

About This Trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether infusing bevacizumab into the middle meningeal arteries can be used to treat chronic subdural hematomas (cSDH). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is bevacizumab infusion safe in cSDH patients? * Is bevacizumab infusion effective in treating cSDH?

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 1 trials test a new treatment for the first time in humans, focusing on safety, dosing, and how the body processes the drug. For Chronic Subdural Hematoma, a Phase 1 study typically enrolls a small number of participants — often healthy volunteers or patients who have exhausted standard treatment options. Phase 1 results determine whether a treatment moves into larger Phase 2 efficacy studies.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

Target enrollment of 140 participants puts this in the typical range for a Phase 2-style efficacy study or a moderate Phase 3 trial in a focused Chronic Subdural Hematoma subpopulation. At this scale, the study has enough statistical power to detect a clear treatment effect but is not the largest cohort in the field.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - Adult patients (≥18 years) - Radiographic evidence of chronic subdural hematoma, including 1. Persistence of subdural blood more than 10 days after index traumatic injury or event 2. Presence of mixed density blood 3. Presence of subdural membranes - Can obtain willing to sign a consent form and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) authorization. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: - Pregnant, breastfeeding, or unwilling to practice contraception during participation in the study. - Patients with concomitant intracranial pathology other than subdural hematoma (e.g., intracranial malignancy). - Patients with known hypersensitivity to bevacizumab. - Patients with radiographic evidence of mass effect. - Patients have focal neurological deficits attributed to subdural hematoma. - Patient had craniotomy or burr hole operative procedures performed in preceding two weeks prior to onset of subdural hematoma. - Secondary causes apart from trauma for the chronic subdural hematoma, such as underlying vascular abnormality or tumor. - Emergent surgical evacuation is required for the patient. - Non-convexity chronic subdural hematoma, as the middle meningeal artery will not supply this area. - Coagulation abnormalities, including platelet count \<100,000 and/or international normalized ratio of \<1.5 despite attempts for correction. - Patients with known contraindications for angiography. Patients with contrast allergy will be premedicated with diphenhydramine and steroids. - Patient has known active systemic infection or sepsis. - Patient has contradiction to anesthetic agents used for conscious sedation/monitored anesthesia care (MAC). - Patient has life expectancy of less than six months due to comorbid terminal conditions. - Patient has a premorbid modified Rankin score (mRS) of 5 or greater. - Concurrent participation in another research protocol for investigation of an experimental therapy. Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
