Abstract Background: Inflammation plays a vital role in the development of secondary brain injury after spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). Interleukin-1 beta is an early pro-inflammatory cytokine and a potential therapeutic target.
Aim: To determine the effect of treatment with recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist anakinra on perihematomal oedema (PHO) formation in patients with spontaneous ICH compared to standard medical management, and investigate whether this effect is dose-dependent.
Methods: ACTION is a phase-II, prospective, randomised, three-armed (1:1:1) trial with open-label treatment and blinded end-point assessment (PROBE) at three hospitals in The Netherlands. We will include 75 patients with a supratentorial spontaneous ICH admitted within 8 h after symptom onset. Participants will receive anakinra in a high dose (loading dose 500 mg intravenously, followed by infusion with 2 mg/kg/h over 72 h;
Outcomes: Primary outcome is PHO, measured as oedema extension distance on MRI at day 7 ± 1. Secondary outcomes include the safety profile of anakinra, the effect of anakinra on serum inflammation markers, MRI measures of blood brain barrier integrity, and functional outcome at 90 ± 7 days.
Discussion: The ACTION trial will provide insight into whether targeting interleukin-1 beta in the early time window after ICH onset could ameliorate secondary brain injury. This may contribute to the development of new treatment options to improve clinical outcome after ICH.
