Filter by:Rationale: Recently, one prospective multicenter RCT reported a potential beneficial effect of intra-arterial alteplase following successful endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with an acute intracranial large vessel occlusion. In 2018, another prospective multicenter RCT supported the superiority of tenecteplase over alteplase in ischemic stroke patients with large vessel occlusion. Objective: To assess the effect of EVT in addition to intra-arterial tenecteplase compared to EVT alone, in patients with large vessel occlusion of posterior circulation, on functional and safety outcomes. Study design: This is a parallel group, randomized clinical trial of EVT with IA-TNK versus EVT. The trial has observer blind assessment of the primary outcome and of neuro-imaging at baseline and follow-up. Study population: Patients with acute intracranial large vessel occlusion of posterior circulation and an eTICI 2b-3 after EVT. Main study parameters/outcomes: The primary effect parameter will be excellent functional status at day 90 defined as a modified Rankin Score (mRS) of 0-1. The estimate will be adjusted for the known prognostic variables age, pre-stroke mRS, time from onset to randomization, stroke severity (NIHSS) and collaterals and adjusted and unadjusted estimates with corresponding 95% confidence intervals will be reported.
This study is a prospective, open-label, multi-center, registry study, designed to show that rescue stenting is safe and effective for emergency large vessel occlusion (ELVO) patients who have mechanical thrombectomy failure. Participants with ELVO will initially underwent mechanical thrombectomy usig stent retriever, contact aspiration or both. After failure of mechanical thrombectomy, rescue stenting will be performed.
