Summary

This trial tests if IV nimodipine is as safe and well-tolerated as the pill form.

Who is the study for?
Adults diagnosed with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) can join this trial. They must have a certain severity score, agree to contraception if applicable, and start treatment within 96 hours of aSAH onset. Excluded are those allergic to nimodipine or GTX-104, pregnant women, anyone who's taken too much oral nimodipine already or other recent investigational treatments.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the safety and tolerability of GTX-104 given intravenously compared to standard oral nimodipine capsules in patients with bleeding from a brain aneurysm. The goal is to see if IV delivery is as safe as taking the drug by mouth.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects may include hypersensitivity reactions for those allergic to ingredients in GTX-104 or nimodipine, heart-related issues like low heart rate or atrioventricular block for at-risk individuals, and potential liver enzyme elevations.
