Acute Ischemic Stroke
Conditions
Brief summary
DATE-MeVO is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled, open-label, blinded endpoint (PROBE) clinical trial aiming at evaluating the efficacy and safety of tenecteplase combined with standard medications in acute ischemic stroke patients with medium vessel occlusion stroke within 24 hours of onset.
Interventions
A standardized microcatheter-based technique was used to administer recombinant TNK-tPA directly into the thrombus. The total dose (0.0625 mg/kg, max 6.25 mg) was delivered in three equal parts: distally, within the mid-clot, and proximally. Angiographic reassessment at 5 minutes determined if a second identical dose was required (max cumulative dose: 0.125 mg/kg). The procedure was continuously monitored and could be terminated immediately for safety concerns.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Age ≥18 years old 2. Acute isolated intracranial medium vessel occlusion (Distal middle cerebral artery M2; M3 and M4 segments of the middle cerebral artery; A1-A4 segments of the anterior cerebral artery; P1-P3 segments of the posterior cerebral artery), confirmed by imaging, with symptom onset to randomization within 24 hours; 3. NlHSS score ≥ 5 4. CT scan performed within 24 hours confirming that the ischemic lesion does not involve more than one-third of the territory supplied by the responsible vessel (no evidence of early large infarction) 5. Patients with premorbid mRS 0 or 1 6. Written informed consent obtained from the participant or a legally authorized representative

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of Participants With Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) Score of 0 or 1 | At Day 90±7 days | Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is a standardized measure that describes the extent of disability after a stroke. The mRS is a single item scale. It increases from 0 (no symptoms at all) to 6 (death). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of Participants With Symptomatic Intracerebral Haemorrhage (sICH) | up to 48 hours | sICH via criteria adapted from the European Cooperative Acute Stroke Study (ECASS III), defined as any apparent extravascular blood in the brain or within the cranium that is associated with clinical deterioration defined by an NIHSS score increase of four points or more from baseline. |
| Improvement in NIHSS between baseline and 5-7 days | at 5-7 days from randomization | National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) is a 11-item neurologic examination stroke scale used to evaluate the effect of acute cerebral infarction on the levels of consciousness, language, neglect, visual-field loss, extraocular movement, motor strength, ataxia, dysarthria, and sensory loss. A trained observer rates the patent's ability to answer questions and perform activities. Ratings for each item are scored with 3 to 6 grades with 0 as normal, and there is an allowance for untestable items.Total NIHSS score (0-42) = sum of 11 individual item scores, higher total scores meaning more severe deficits |
| Distribution of Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) | At Day 90±7 days | Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is a standardized measure that describes the extent of disability after a stroke. The mRS is a single item scale. It increases from 0 (no symptoms at all) to 6 (death). |
| Percentage of Participants With Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) Score of 0-2 | At Day 90±7 days | Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is a standardized measure that describes the extent of disability after a stroke. The mRS is a single item scale. It increases from 0 (no symptoms at all) to 6 (death). |
| EQ-5D-5L score | At Day 90±7 days | Health-related quality of life (the score on the EuroQol Group 5-Dimension 5-Level \[EQ-5D-5L\] questionnaire, range,-0.39 to 1, with higher scores indicating better quality of life) |
| All-cause mortality | up to 90 days | All-cause mortality at 90 days |
