Giving clot-busting medicine directly into the brain after successful blood flow restoration
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a clot-busting drug given directly into the brain artery can improve recovery after a major stroke caused by a blockage in the front part of the brain. The study is for people whose blood flow has already been successfully restored with standard treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You had a stroke caused by a large blockage in the front part of the brain (internal carotid, M1, or M2 artery)
- You started treatment within 24 hours of stroke symptoms
- Blood flow was successfully restored (score of eTICI 2b-2c-3) after standard clot removal or clot-busting medicine
- You are mentally and physically able to come to a 3-month follow-up visit

This trial tests whether giving a clot-busting drug (alteplase) directly into the brain artery after a successful clot removal improves recovery in people with severe stroke. It is for patients who have had a thrombectomy and still have a large blocked artery in the front of the brain.
This trial tests whether giving a clot-dissolving medication directly into the brain's blood vessels during a standard procedure (mechanical thrombectomy) can improve outcomes for people with a stroke caused by a blockage in a medium-sized artery. It may be an option for patients who arrive at the hospital within 24 hours of symptom onset and have enough salvageable brain tissue.
This trial tests whether giving a clot-busting drug called tenecteplase directly into the blocked blood vessel in the brain can help people with a medium-sized vessel occlusion stroke. The drug may help restore blood flow and reduce disability, and it is given within 24 hours of symptom onset.
This trial tests a new clot-busting medicine called tenecteplase, given directly into the blood vessel in the brain, to treat strokes caused by a blockage in a medium-sized artery. The goal is to see if it can help restore blood flow and reduce disability, especially for patients who can be treated within 24 hours of stroke onset.
This trial tests whether giving a clot-busting medication (tenecteplase) before the standard clot-removal procedure (thrombectomy) helps patients with a large stroke more than just the procedure alone. If the treatment works, it could improve recovery and reduce disability after a severe stroke.
This trial tests if giving a clot-busting drug (tenecteplase) directly into the brain artery after a successful clot-removal procedure can improve outcomes for people with a major stroke. It is for patients who had a large vessel blockage and received endovascular thrombectomy within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
