PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Saline + Enoxaparin

Drug: 0.9% Saline + Enoxaparin

1

EXPERIMENTAL

Tenecteplase + Enoxaparin

Drug: Tenecteplase + Enoxaparin

Interventions

Enoxaparin: 1 mg/kg within 12 hours before receiving tenecteplase.Subsequently, patients will receive 1 mg/kg enoxaparin SQ Q12 hours until discontinuation is clinically indicated. Tenecteplase:will be administered using a tiered-dosing schedule according to patient weight: \<60Kg=30mg; ≥60Kg to \<70Kg=35mg; ≥70Kg to \<80Kg=40mg; ≥80Kg to \<90Kg=45mg; ≥90Kg=50mg

Enoxaparin: 1 mg/kg within 12 hours before receiving saline.
