About this trial

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.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Proportion of patients with functional independence outcome (mRS 0-2) at day 90

modified Rankin scale (range, 0 to 6, with a score of 0 indicating no disability, 1 no clinically significant disability, 2 slight disability, 3 moderate disability but remaining able to walk unassisted, 4 moderately severe disability, 5 severe disability, and 6 death)

Time frame
90 days after procedure

Secondary outcomes

1

The ordinal shift of modified Rankin Scale

The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) measures degree of disability/dependence after a stroke, with a score of 0 indicating no disability, 1 no clinically significant disability, 2 slight disability, 3 moderate disability but remaining able to walk unassisted, 4 moderately severe disability, 5 severe disability, and 6 death

Time frame
90 days after procedure
2

Proportion of patients with functional independence outcome (mRS 0-1) at day 90

Modified Rankin scale (range, 0 to 6, with a score of 0 indicating no disability, 1 no clinically significant disability, 2 slight disability, 3 moderate disability but remaining able to walk unassisted, 4 moderately severe disability, 5 severe disability, and 6 death)

Time frame
90 days after procedure
3

Recanalization of occlusion site according to the arterial occlusive lesion (AOL) scale

It specifically measures the mechanical success of recanalization at the site of the original occlusion.The scale ranges from 0 to 3, with higher scores indicating better recanalization. Grade 0: No recanalization (persistent occlusion). Grade 1: Incomplete recanalization (partial reopening with minimal flow). Grade 2: Partial recanalization (significant flow but residual stenosis or thrombus). Grade 3: Complete recanalization (full restoration of flow with no residual occlusion).

Time frame
24 hours after randomization
4

Change in Neurological Function of Participants Assessed by National Institute of Health Stroke Scale

Zero indicates no stroke symptoms, 1-4 , 5-15, 16-20, 21-42 indicate minor, moderate, moderate to severe, and severe stroke, respectively.

Time frame
Baseline and 7-days after randomization (or at discharge)
