Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Expected performance of PCI /= 180/110 mm Hg (systolic BP >/= 180 mm Hg and/or diastolic BP >/= 110 mm Hg) prior to randomisation 7.

Recent administration of any i.v. or s.c. anticoagulation within 12 hours including unfractionated heparin, enoxaparin and/or bivalirudin or current use of oral anticoagulation (warfarin or coumadin) 9. Active bleeding or known bleeding disorder/diathesis 10. Any history of central nervous system damage (i.e. neoplasm, aneurysm, intracranial or spinal surgery) or recent trauma to the head or cranium (i.e. 10 minutes) within the past 2 weeks 14. Known acute pericarditis and/or subacute bacterial endocarditis 15. Known acute pancreatitis or known severe hepatic dysfunction, including hepatic failure, cirrhosis, portal hypertension (oesophageal varices) and active hepatitis 16.

| Main Objective: Evaluate in a proof of concept approach the outcome of pre-hospital patients presenting with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction randomised within 3 hours of onset of symptoms. The efficacy and safety of a strategy of pre-hospital fibrinolytic treatment with tenecteplase and additional antiplatelet and antithrombin therapy followed by catheterisation within 6-24 hours with timely coronary intervention as appropriate (or by rescue coronary intervention if required) will be compared to a strategy of primary PCI according to established local standards.;Secondary Objective: Evaluate single and composite safety and efficicacy endpoints up to or before 30 days following randsomisation;Primary end point(s): The study has an exploratory design; the following observations are considered as endpoints for safety and/or efficacy: Single efficacy endpoints within 30 days: - All cause mortality - Cardiogenic shock - Congestive heart failure - Recurrent myocardial infarction - Rehospitalisation for cardiac reasons - Rehospitalisation for non-cardiac reasons Single efficacy endpoints at or before discharge: - ECG and marker enzyme changes (infarct size; aborted myocardial infarction) Composite efficacy endpoints within 30 days: - Death and shock - Death and shock and CHF - Death and shock and reinfarction - Death and shock and CHF and reinfarction Single safety endpoints within 30 days: - Ischaemic stroke - Intracranial haemorrhage - Non-intracranial bleeds (total, major, minor, and blood transfusions) - Serious clinical events (resuscitated ventricular fibrillation, repeat target vessel recanalisation) Composite safety endpoints within 30 days: - Total stroke (fatal, disabling, non-disabling) - Disabling stroke Mixed (efficacy and safety) composite safety endpoints within 30 days: - Death and non-fatal stroke - Death and shock and CHF and reinfarction and disabling stroke | — |
