NCT06414499

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous tenecteplase (0.25 mg/kg) compared with standard therapy in patients with acute ischemic stroke presenting with mild symptoms-defined as a National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score ≤5 accompanied by persistent unilateral limb weakness or speech impairment within 4.5 hours of onset.

Study Arms (2)

Aspirin combined with clopidogrel

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Aspirin 100mg combined with clopidogrel 300mg, plus placebo intravenous rhTNK-tPA

Drug: Control group (Aspirin combined with clopidogrel)

rhTNK-tPA (0.25 mg/kg)

EXPERIMENTAL

rhTNK-tPA (0.25 mg/kg, max 25 mg) with placebo oral aspirin and clopidogrel

Drug: rhTNK-tPA

Interventions

rhTNK-tPA 0.25mg/kg, the maximum dose does not exceed 25mg: 1 vial is dissolved in 3ml of sterile water for injection to prepare a medicinal solution with a concentration of 5.33mg/ml. Calculate the total amount of the drug according to the weight of participant, and the maximum dose shall not exceed 25 mg. It is administered as a single bolus intravenous injection, and the injection is completed within 5-10 seconds. Additionally, placebo oral aspirin and clopidogrel are given. Aspirin 100 mg and clopidogrel 300 mg are administered within 6 ± 2 hours following thrombolytic therapy.

rhTNK-tPA (0.25 mg/kg)

Dual antiplatelets with aspirin 100mg and clopidogrel 300mg, plus placebo intravenous rhTNK-tPA. Placebo oral aspirin and clopidogrel are administered within 6 ± 2 hours following intravenous placebo.

Aspirin combined with clopidogrel
