About this trial

The study objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Intra arterial (IA) Tenecteplase (TNK) as an adjunctive therapy in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with large vessel occlusions (LVO) in the anterior circulation of Internal Carotid Artery (ICA), Middle Cerebral Arteries (M1 and M2) who achieve a reperfusion grade of Modified Treatment in Cerebral Ischemia Scale (mTICI) 2b or higher post-mechanical thrombectomy using Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved devices.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age 18-85

Anterior circulation ischemic stroke symptoms with confirmed occlusion (ICA, M1, or M2) on angiogram and mechanical thrombectomy initiated within 24 hours since last known well

Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) Score ≥6 on baseline Non-contrast Head CT (NCCT)

Post-mechanical thrombectomy with ≤5 device passes and mTICI grade 2b or higher.

Disqualifiers

Premorbid modified Rankin scale (mRS) score >1

Imaging evidence of hemorrhage or mass effect at baseline

Platelet count <100,000

Active hemorrhagic diathesis, or known hereditary or acquired hemorrhagic diathesis, coagulation factor deficiency

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Primary Efficacy Endpoint- Modified Rankin Scale (mRS)

Proportion of patients with Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-1 at 90-days. The mRS is the standard tool to assess neurological outcome in trials with acute severe brain disease. The scale runs from 0-6, running from perfect health without symptoms (= 0) to death (= 6).

Time frame
90 days (+/- 30 days) post treatment.
2

Primary Safety Endpoint- Incidence of Intracranial hemorrhage and Neurologic Worsening

Incidence of any intracranial hemorrhage and neurologic worsening of at least 4 points on the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) associated with a Parenchymal hematoma, Type 2 (PH2) brain hemorrhage, according to the Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke-Monitoring Study (SITS-MOST) criteria, within 24 (±12) hours from randomization.

Time frame
24 hours (+/-12 hours) post treatment.

Secondary outcomes

1

Ordinal Modified Rankin Scale (mRS)

Ordinal mRS at 90 day. The mRS is the standard tool to assess neurological outcome in trials with acute severe brain disease. The scale runs from 0-6, running from perfect health without symptoms (= 0) to death (= 6).

Time frame
90 days (+/-30 days) post treatment.
2

Functional Independence

Proportion of patients with functional independence, defined as a mRS of 0-2 at 90 days.

Time frame
90 days (+/- 30 days) post treatment.
3

Final Revascularization Grade

Final revascularization grade at end of IA treatment among those with less than mTICI 3 prior to IA-TNK administration.

Time frame
Immediate post treatment.
4

Mortality rate at 90 days

Mortality rate at 90-days

Time frame
Mortality rate at 90-days (+/- 30 days) post treatment.
