Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of early tirofiban administration in patients undergoing IVT

Detailed description

Nearly half of acute ischemic stroke patients underwent intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) failed to achieve excellent functional outcome. Some studies reported that early administrated tirofiban, a selective glycoproteinⅡb/Ⅲa receptor inhibitor, may greatly improve the outcome of patients who received IVT, however they only recruited small sample size. Thus, the investigators design early tirofiban administration after intravenous thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke (ADVENT) trial, aiming to evaluate the efficacy and safety of early tirofiban administration in patients undergoing IVT.

Interventions

DRUGTirofiban

Tirofiban is a selective glycoproteinⅡb/Ⅲa receptor inhibitor, which inhibits platelet aggregation and thrombi formation

DRUGTirofiban simulant

Tirofiban simulant is placebo packed the same style as tirofiban

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Proportion of patients of modified Rankin Scale (mRS)≤190±7 daysmRS depicts functional outcome of stroke, which ranges from 0-6, mRS 0-1 represents excellent functional outcome

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Proportion of patients of mRS≤290±7 daysmRS depicts functional outcome of stroke, which ranges from 0-6, mRS 0-2 represents favorable functional outcome
Distribution of mRS90±7 daysmRS depicts functional outcome of stroke, which ranges from 0-6
National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS)24 hours after IVT, 7 daysNational Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) ranges from 0 to 42, a low value represents a better outcome
