About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Randomised, Parallel-group Comparison to Investigate the Procoagulant Effect of Tenecteplase (TNK-tPA), Alteplase (Rt-PA) and Streptokinase (SK) Administered to Patients With AMI

Primary objective: to evaluate the procoagulant effect of TNK-tPA compared to rt-PA and streptokinase, administered to patients with AMI, by measuring the concentration of TAT at 2 hours after the start of treatment versus baseline values.

Secondary objective: change from baseline in concentration of TAT at 6 and 24 hours; change from baseline in concentration of D-dimers, F1+2, PAI-1, PAP at 2, 6 and 24 hours. Incidence of adverse events (AE's), in -hospital complications, major or minor bleedings and serious adverse events.

Being tested
Tenecteplase, Alteplase, Streptokinase

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes from baseline in concentration of thrombin anti-thrombin complex (TAT)

    Measured: Baseline, 2 hours after start of treatment

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Changes from baseline in TAT

    Measured: Baseline, 6 and 24 hours after start of treatment

  2. Changes from baseline in D-dimers

    Measured: Baseline, 2, 6 and 24 hours after start of treatment

  3. Changes from baseline in prothrombin fragments 1+2 (F1+F2)

    Measured: Baseline, 2, 6 and 24 hours after start of treatment

  4. Changes from baseline in plasminogen-activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1)

    Measured: Baseline, 2, 6 and 24 hours after start of treatment

  5. Changes from baseline in plasmin-antiplasmin complex (PAP)

    Measured: Baseline, 2, 6 and 24 hours after start of treatment

  6. Occurrence of adverse events (AE's)

    Measured: Up to 30 days

  7. Occurrence of major bleedings

    Measured: Up to 30 days

  8. Occurrence of minor bleedings

    Measured: Up to 30 days

  9. Occurrence of serious adverse events (SAE's)

    Measured: Up to 30 days

  10. Occurrence of in-hospital complications

    Measured: Start of treatment until discharge from hospital

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Tenecteplase, Alteplase and Streptokinase in people with Myocardial Infarction, run by Boehringer Ingelheim.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jul 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes from baseline in concentration of thrombin anti-thrombin complex (TAT) (time frame: Baseline, 2 hours after start of treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jul 2014.
