NCT04256473

Brief Summary

Randomized controlled phase II trial to test the safety and preliminary efficacy of a dual thrombolytic treatment consisting of a small intravenous (IV) bolus of alteplase followed by IV infusion of mutant pro-urokinase against usual treatment with IV alteplase in patients presenting with ischemic stroke.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Any intracranial hemorrhage according to the Heidelberg Bleeding Classification on MRI

    24-48 hours post-treatment

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Score on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)

    at 24 hours and 5-7 days post-treatment

  • Score on the modified Rankin Scale (mRS)

    at 30 days

  • Infarct volume on MRI

    at 24-48 hours

  • Change (pre-treatment vs. post-treatment) in abnormal perfusion volume based on TTP/MTT maps measured with CT perfusion at baseline and MRI

    at 24-48 hours post treatment.

  • Secondary blood biomarkers of thrombolysis: d-dimer levels and fibrinogen levels.

    1 hour post-treatment, after 3 hours, and after 24 hours post-treatment,

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Bolus of IV alteplase (5 mg) followed by continuous infusion of HisproUK 40 mg/hr during 60 minutes. Depending on results of interim analyses, the alternate dose may be revised to a lower dose (30mg/hr during 60 minutes) or a higher dose (50mg/hr during 60 minutes).

Drug: mutant pro-urokinase

Control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Usual care with alteplase 0.9 mg/kg in 60 minutes

Drug: Alteplase

Interventions

Intravenous administration

Also known as: HisproUK

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • A clinical diagnosis of ischemic stroke;
  • A score of at least 1 on the NIH Stroke Scale;
  • CT ruling out intracranial hemorrhage;
  • Treatment possible within 4.5 hours from symptom onset or last seen well;
  • Meet the criteria for standard treatment for IV alteplase according to national guidelines27;
  • Age of 18 years or older;
  • Written informed consent (deferred).

You may not qualify if:

  • Candidate for endovascular thrombectomy (i.e., a proximal intracranial large artery occlusion on CTA);
  • Contra-indication for treatment with IV alteplase according to national guidelines27:
  • Arterial blood pressure exceeding 185/110 mmHg and not responding to treatment
  • Blood glucose less than 2.7 or over 22.2 mmol/L
  • Cerebral infarction in the previous 6 weeks with residual neurological deficit or signs of recent infarction on neuro-imaging
  • Head trauma in the previous 4 weeks
  • Major surgery or serious trauma in the previous 2 weeks
  • Gastrointestinal or urinary tract hemorrhage in the previous 2 weeks
  • Previous intracerebral hemorrhage
  • Use of anticoagulant with INR exceeding 1.7 or APTT exceeding 50 seconds
  • Known thrombocyte count less than 90 x 109 /L
  • Treatment with direct thrombin or factor X inhibitors, unless specific antidotum has been given, i.e. idarucizumab in case of dabigatran use.
  • Pre-stroke disability which interferes with the assessment of functional outcome at 90 days, i.e. mRS \> 2;
  • Known pregnancy or if pregnancy cannot be excluded, i.e. did not have intercourse for \> 6 months and no clinical signs of pregnancy, adequate use of any contraceptive method (e.g. intrauterine devices) or sterilization of the subject herself.
  • Contra-indication for an MRI scan, i.e.:
  • +9 more criteria
