Condition(s) studied

Acute Ischemic StrokeLarge Vessel OcclusionTenecteplaseThrombolysis

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

TNK →Standard medical treatment

TNK: a dose of 0.25 mg/kg (max 25 mg) administered as a bolus

Standard medical treatment: antiplatelet drugs, anticoagulation or combinations of these treatment modality according to national and institutional guidelines.

Study summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if tenectplase works to acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with onset 4.5-9 hours. It will also learn about the safety of tenectplase in AIS with onset 4.5-9 hours. The main question it aims to answer is: Does tenectplase improve the 90-days functional outcome in participants with acute large vessel occlusion? Researchers will compare tenectplase thrombolysis to non-use to see if tenectplase works to improve the functional outcome in participants with onset 4.5-9 hours. Participants will:\* Receive 0.25mg/kg (max 25mg) tenectplase at admission (after randomization) .\* Receive neurological assessment at admission, Day 5-7 or on hospital discharge (whichever earlier). Audio or video of the assessment may be recorded if possible.\* Receive brain CT + CT angiogram + CT perfusion and MRI after randomization, where the CT scan may be repetitive.
