Titles & IDs
Public title
Triple therapy prevention of Recurrent Intracerebral Disease EveNts Trial (TRIDENT) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Sub-study: Effect of intensive blood pressure lowering treatment provided by a Triple Pill strategy on chronic markers of cerebral small vessel disease in patients with a history of acute stroke due to intracerebral haemorrhage, as assessed by Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
Scientific title
A sub-study of an investigator initiated and conducted, multicentre, international, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, randomised controlled trial (TRIDENT) to determine the effect of more intensive long-term intensive blood pressure control, provided by a fixed low-dose combination blood pressure lowering pill (“Triple Pill”) strategy on top of standard of care, on chronic markers of cerebral small vessel disease in patients with a history of acute stroke due to intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH), as assessed by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

Description of intervention(s) / exposure
TRIDENT:
Triple Pill (active treatment) - telmisartan 20mg, amlodipine 2.5mg and indapamide 1.25mg; taken orally, once daily for 36 months. Medication adherence and accountability is monitored through self-reports of doses missed and pill counts at every visit until end of treatment (Visits 3-9).

MRI Sub-study:
Participants at participating sites with MRI scanners capable of the tests required will be considered to be eligible for the study if they meet all inclusion criteria and do not meet any exclusion criteria. Those that are eligible for the sub-study will undergo MRI scans at baseline (6 weeks - 6 months post-randomisation into the main study) and at 36-month follow-up time points to analyse chronic markers of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) – white matter hyperintensities (WMH), cerebral microbleeds (CMB), lacunes, perivascular spaces, cerebral atrophy, and cortical superficial siderosis (CSS).

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. Eligible for, randomised and continuing in TRIDENT Main Study
2. No contraindications to MRI scan of the brain
3. Provide informed consent for the MRI Sub-Study
Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age
No limit
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
1. Any MRI contraindications (e.g. metallic implants, claustrophobia, etc.).
2. Less than 6 weeks or greater than 6 months post-randomisation (however, where possible the baseline MRI Sub-Study scan should be conducted as soon as possible after the qualifying ICH. e.g. if the qualifying ICH was 4 months prior to randomisation, the baseline scan should be done as close to 6 weeks post-randomisation as possible).

Statistical methods / analysis
A sample size of 750 patients will provide 90% power (alpha=0.05) to detect more than a 20% difference between the two randomised groups in the primary outcome measure, assuming equal participation between the two treatment groups. A 20% dropout per year was estimated for a 3-year follow-up.

The intention-to-treat principle will be applied in the analysis. The primary endpoint of proportion of white matter lesions (WML) will be analysed by logistic regression models.
