Intra-arterial Tenecteplase for Acute Medium Vessel Occlusion Stroke
brief summary
The ANGEL-MeVO-TNK is a multicentered, prospective, randomized, open label, blinded endpoint (PROBE) phase III trial. A total of 488 AIS patients (age ≥18 years) with acute MeVO-AIS (occlusion of the M2/M3, the A1/A2/A3, the P1/P2/P3, and with baseline NIHSS score \>5 or disabling stroke with NIHSS score 3-5 \[such as neurological deficits in motor strength, language, vision, etc\]), will be enrolled. Patients fulfilling all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be randomized 1:1 into the IA TNK group or the control group after offering informed content. * The IA TNK group will receive IA TNK (0.2-0.3 mg/min, for 15 -30min), be infused slowly. * The control group will be given standard medical management. The study consists of four visits including the day of randomization, 48±12 hours after randomization, and 90±7 days after randomization. Demographic information, symptoms and signs, laboratory test, neuro-imaging assessment neurological function rating scale will be recorded during the program. The primary outcome is the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 0 to 1 at 90±7 days after onset. The primary safety outcome is the incidence of sICH within 48±12 hours after randomization (ECASS III).
