Phase III Clinical Trial of rhTNK-tPA in Treating Acute Ischemic Stroke With Extended Time Window.
Recruiting now · Phase 3 · Has a placebo group
Conditions studied: Acute Ischemic Stroke
In brief
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III clinical study designed to evaluate the efficacy of recombinant human tissue-type plasminogen activator variant (rhTNK-tPA) (0.25 mg/kg, maximum dose 25 mg) compared with placebo in patients with acute large vessel occlusive stroke who present within 4.5 to 24 hours of symptom onset. The study plans to enroll patients with acute large vessel occlusive stroke who present within 4.5 to 24 hours of symptom onset (including wake-up strokes and strokes without witnesses). A centralized 1:1 randomization will be adopted, and eligible participants will be randomly assigned to two groups: the experimental group will receive rhTNK-tPA at a dose of 0.25 mg/kg, while the placebo group will receive rhTNK-tPA placebo.

You may qualify if…
- Aged ≥ 18 years, regardless of gender;
- Time from symptom onset to treatment is 4.5 - 24 hours(Including the boundary values.), including patients with wake-up stroke or stroke without witnesses; the time of symptom onset is defined as the "last known normal time";

- Baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score ≥ 6;
- Neuroimaging findings: occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA), M1 or M2 segment of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) confirmed by computed tomography angiography (CTA)/magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), which is the responsible vessel for the signs and symptoms of acute ischemic stroke; presence of target mismatch on computed tomography perfusion (CTP) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) + magnetic resonance perfusion (MRP) (ischemic core volume < 70 mL, mismatch ratio ≥ 1.8, mismatch volume ≥ 15 mL);
- Voluntary signing of the informed consent form by the participant or their legal guardian.
You may not qualify if…
- Patients with known allergy to recombinant human tissue plasminogen activator (rhTNK-tPA);
- Patients with an expected life expectancy of less than 1 year;
- Patients with rapidly improving symptoms (which may indicate spontaneous recanalization), as determined by the investigator;
- Patients with a score of > 2 on Item 1a (Level of Consciousness) of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), or those who had a seizure at stroke onset, or had hemiplegia after seizure, or had other neurological/psychiatric disorders that rendered them unable or unwilling to cooperate;
