    Measured: 7±2days or discharge

  3. Modified Rankin Scale(mRS)

    Proportion of subjects with mRS scores of (0-2) at 90±7 days.(Comments:The minimum and maximum values are from 0 to 6,and higher scores mean a worse outcome.)

    Measured: 90±7 days

  4. Modified Rankin Scale(mRS)

    mRS scores at 90±7 days.(Comments:The minimum and maximum values are from 0 to 6,and higher scores mean a worse outcome.)

(including: carotid endarterectomy, intracranial and extracranial artery interventional therapy, intracranial and extracranial artery bypass surgery, coronary interventional or bypass therapy)

    Measured: 90±7 days

  6. Deaths

    Measured: 90±7 days

  7. EQ-5D

    EQ-5D scores at 90±7 days.(Comments:The minimum and maximum values are from 0 to 100,and higher scores mean a better outcome.)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Alteplase and Tenecteplase in people with Acute Ischemic Stroke, run by Beijing Tiantan Hospital at 28 sites in China.

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 5 inclusion and 22 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 28 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Modified Rankin Scale(mRS) (time frame: 90±7 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05281549, which also lists 14 linked publications.

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 31 Mar 2022.
