What this Trial Is About
The purpose of this pilot study is to determine the safety and optimal dose of clot lysis with rhTNK-tPA for intraventricular hemorrhage, using stereotactic guidance for extraventricular drain placement.

Who Can Participate
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if you...
- Age 18-80 years
- Symptom onset within 24 hours before diagnostic CT scan; unknown onset time excluded
- Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) 64 30 ml with intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) > 20 ml blocking third and/or fourth ventricles
- External ventricular drain (EVD) placed using robotic stereotactic guidance into largest CSF pool or least bloody lateral ventricle site
- Stability CT scan 65 6 hours after EVD placement showing ICH volume change 64 5 ml; repeated scans allowed if needed
- IVH clot stability with lateral ventricle width change 64 2 mm confirmed by stability CT scans
- Catheter tract bleeding 64 5 ml on stability CT scans; total hematoma volume along tract 64 10 ml
- Third and/or fourth ventricles occluded with blood on stability CT
- Primary IVH with no ICH (ICH = 0) eligible
- Sustained systolic blood pressure < 180 mmHg for at least 6 hours before enrollment
- No intraventricular thrombolytic treatment within 12 hours of symptom onset
- Enrollment completed within 72 hours of diagnostic CT scan (may extend with approval)
- Pre-morbid modified Rankin Scale score of 0 or 1
You will not qualify if you...
- Hemorrhage caused by aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, tumors, or other identifiable causes unless ruled out by imaging
- Presence of choroid plexus vascular malformation or Moyamoya disease
- Hypercoagulable state or coagulopathy; long-term anticoagulation excluded
- Use of anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents (except aspirin) within one week before symptom onset
- Platelet count < 100,000 or INR > 1.4
- Pregnancy
- Infratentorial hemorrhage
- Thalamic hemorrhage with midbrain involvement or severe nerve palsy
- Subarachnoid hemorrhage or atypical hematoma locations unless no bleeding source identified
- Unstable ICH/IVH with ongoing hematoma growth
- Indications for craniotomy such as brain herniation signs or superficial hematoma
- Ongoing internal bleeding in major organ systems unless stable for 65 12 hours
- Multiple superficial bleedings at vascular puncture or surgical sites
- Conditions posing significant risk or unsuitability as judged by investigator
- Participation in other interventional clinical trials
- Inability to obtain informed consent from patient or legal representative
