Description

Seeking men and women 18 years of age or older who have had a stroke caused by bleeding in their brain to help determine is a new drug called recombinant factor VIIa (rFVIIa) can improve outcomes compared to a placebo when added to the standard care provided after a stroke.

The medicine is called Recombinant Factor VIIa (rFVIIa). Participants in this study will receive either the medicine or a placebo that contains no active medications.

What we're hoping for
