Conditions

Registration Number
NCT06078995
Lead Sponsor
Huashan Hospital
Brief Summary

The objective of the study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of rhTNK-tPA in acute ischemic stroke patients within 4.5 hours of symptom onset in a real-world clinical setting.

Detailed Description

Recombinant human tenecteplase tissue-type plasminogen activator (rhTNK-tPA) has the logistic advantage of a single bolus infusion over recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) which needs a 1-hour infusion. The non-inferiority of rhTNK-tPA compared to rt-PA was proved by two recent randomized controlled clinical trials but the evidence is lacking regarding the real-world effectiveness and safety of rhTNK-tPA.

This is a multi-center, observational, retrospective study that enrolled acute ischemic stroke patients treated with rhTNK-tPA thrombolysis in China.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of patients with symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage within 36 hours36 hours

Clinical deterioration or neurological decline causing an increase in NIHSS score of ≥4 points due to intracranial hemorrhage confirmed by brain imaging

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
discharge NIHSS scoreat discharge (up to 30 days)

The NIH Stroke Scale/Score (NIHSS) quantifies stroke severity based on weighted evaluation findings. Scores range from 0 to 42, with higher scores indicating greater severity.

discharge mRSat discharge (up to 30 days)

modified Rankin Scale score measures degree of disability/dependence after a stroke. Patients are graded on the scale of 0-6, with higher scores indicating worse functional outcome. 0 means no symptoms, 6 means death.

24 hours NIHSS scoreat 24 hours after receiving thrombolysis

The NIH Stroke Scale/Score (NIHSS) quantifies stroke severity based on weighted evaluation findings. Scores range from 0 to 42, with higher scores indicating greater severity.

Rate of patients with any intracranial hemorrhageduring hospital stay (up to 30 days)

Rate of patients with any intracranial hemorrhage without significant neurological deterioration on the brain imaging reflecting short term safety outcome

90 days mRS 0-1at 90±7 days

modified Rankin Scale score measures degree of disability/dependence after a stroke. Patients are graded on the scale of 0-6, with higher scores indicating worse functional outcome. 0 means no symptoms, 6 means death.

90 days mRS shiftat 90±7 days

a shift analysis of the distribution of modified Rankin Scale score which measures degree of disability/dependence after a stroke. Patients are graded on the scale of 0-6, with higher scores indicating worse functional outcome. 0 means no symptoms, 6 means death.

Rate of patients with any systematic bleedingduring hospital stay (up to 30 days)

Rate of patients with any systematic bleeding requiring blood infusion during hospital stay reflecting short term safety outcome

Rate of patients with 90 days mortalityat 90±7 days

Rate of patients with all-cause mortality within 90 days reflecting safety outcome
