Randomized, prospective, multicenter, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Randomization will be 1:1 according to reperfusion treatment modalities: (A) (with placebo TNK) direct mechanical thrombectomy vs. (B) Intravenous thrombolysis with TNK (0.25 mg/kg) plus mechanical thrombectomy. Randomization will be done by a minimization process using age, National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, and site of the occluded artery. For the primary outcome, the subjects will be followed up within 90 days after randomization. The primary outcome will be the ordinal distribution from the modified Rankin scale score (mRS).
A phase III randomized, multi-center, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial that will examine two strategies for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke associated with a large vessel anterior occlusion within 4.5 hours from symptoms onset: direct endovascular treatment vs. endovascular treatment preceded by intravenous tenecteplase.
