Adjunctive Intra-arterial Tenecteplase Following Mechanical Thrombectomy (ALLY) II Trial
ProMedica Health System
132 participants
Jul 30, 2025
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The study objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Intra arterial (IA) Tenecteplase (TNK) as an adjunctive therapy in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with large vessel occlusions (LVO) in the anterior circulation of Internal Carotid Artery (ICA), Middle Cerebral Arteries (M1 and M2) who achieve a reperfusion grade of Modified Treatment in Cerebral Ischemia Scale (mTICI) 2b or higher post-mechanical thrombectomy using Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved devices.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria5

- Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) Score ≥6 on baseline Non-contrast Head CT (NCCT)
- Post-mechanical thrombectomy with ≤5 device passes and mTICI grade 2b or higher.
- Ability to obtain signed informed consent prior to randomization from LAR or Subject
Exclusion Criteria22
- Premorbid modified Rankin scale (mRS) score \>1
- Imaging evidence of hemorrhage or mass effect at baseline
- Platelet count \<100,000
- Active hemorrhagic diathesis, or known hereditary or acquired hemorrhagic diathesis, coagulation factor deficiency
- Active anticoagulation treatment with novel oral anticoagulant (NOACs) taken within the last 48 hours, or INR \>1.7

- Patient is on or requires dialysis
- History of intracranial hemorrhage or serious head trauma at any time
- Any condition in the opinion of the enrolling physician that would preclude the patient from participating
- Pre-existing medical, neurological, or psychiatric disease that would confound the neurological or functional evaluation
- Severe, uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure \>180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \>110 mmHg) that is refractory to treatment
- History of acute ischemic stroke in the last 60 days and/or has received previous treatment with a thrombolytic within the last 90 days
- Presumed septic embolus; suspicion of bacterial endocarditis
- Suspicion of aortic dissection
- Intracranial neoplasm
- Any terminal medical condition with life expectancy less than 6 months
- Concurrent enrollment in another trial that could confound the results of this study
- Patient is unlikely to return for 90-day follow-up.
- Intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) administered concurrently with Intra-arterial TNK
