Advancing Reperfusion Therapy for Ischemic Stroke (ARTS): Tenecteplase in Medium Vessel Occlusion (MeVO) for Acute Ischemic Stroke
Beijing Tiantan Hospital
596 participants
Jul 30, 2025
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Results from recent several trials provided data showing limits to the effectiveness of thrombectomy for ischemic stroke due to medium vessel occlusions.The benefit-risk profile of thrombolysis for these patients has never been investigated. We initiated a multicenter, prospective, randomized, open label, blinded-endpoint (PROBE) controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tenecteplase (0.25mg/kg, maximum dose 25mg) compared to standard medical care for patients with acute ischemic stroke due to medium vessel occlusion (MeVO) within 4.5 to 24 hours from symptom onset.

Interventions
Each vial of tenecteplase is reconstituted with 3 ml sterile water for injection and adjusted to a concentration of 5.33 mg/ml. Calculate the total amount of drug according to the subject's actual body weight and measure the required drug volume. The maximum dose should not exceed 25mg. Tenecteplase should be given as a single, intravenous bolus (within 5-10 seconds).
Aspirin combined with clopidogrel, aspirin alone, or clopidogrel alone after randomization at the discretion of site researchers according to Chinese Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke 2023.
