Study objectives | Whether the patients without occlusion or significant stenosis of the large vessels should receive thrombolysis had been focused on and questioned for a long time. However, there is still no large Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT) to prove if these patients can benefit from thrombolysis. The objective of this trail is to investigate: 1. For the selected acute ischemic stroke patients without large vessels occlusion or significant stenosis, whether the IntraVenous (IV) thrombolysis can improve the clinical outcome if the mismatch exists on CTP/Computed Tomography Angiography-Source Images (CTA-SI) scan in 3-9 hr time-window 2. For the selected acute ischemic stroke patients without large vessels occlusion or significant stenosis, whether the IV thrombolysis can improve the blood perfusion of brain if the mismatch exists on CT perfusion (CTP)/CTA-SI scan in 3-9 hr time-window 3. For the selected acute ischemic stroke patients without large vessels occlusion or significant stenosis, but the mismatch exists on CTP/CTA-SI scan in 3-9 hr time-window, whether the safety of IV thrombolysis is better than the NINDS trial which was in 3 hr window or implemented on the patients with large vessels occlusion or significant stenosis in 3-9 hr time-window. |
Ethics approval(s) | Approval gained from the Beijing Tiantan Hospital Capital Medical University Ethics Board on October 10, 2006. |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Acute ischemic stroke |
Intervention | Patients included were divided into recombinant tissue Plasminogen Activator (rt-PA) (0.9 mg/kg) intravenous thrombolysis group and regular treatment group according to the intention of doctors and patients. |
Intervention type | Drug |
Pharmaceutical study type(s) | |
Phase | Not Specified |
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Recombinant tissue Plasminogen Activator (rt-PA) |
Primary outcome measure | Proportion of participants who achieve the following: 1. Reperfusion improvement, assessed 24 to 48 hours post-treatment and defined as either greater than or equal to 30% reduction of Mean Transit Time (MTT) volume of abnormality 2. Good clinical outcome at 90 days defined as a modified Rankin score (mRS) of 0-1 3. Intracerebral haemorrhage within 24-36 h after thrombolysis |
Secondary outcome measures | Proportion of participants who achieve the following: 1. mRS 0 to 2 at 90 days 2. Barthel Index (BI) score 75 to 100 at 90 days 3. NIHSS 4 points improvement or 0-1 at 2 hours after treatment 4. NIHSS 4 points improvement or 0-1 at 24 to 48 hours 5. NIHSS 4 points improvement or 0-1 at day 7 |

Perfusion abnormality of CT scan >2cm in diameter involving hemisphere 9. CT Perfusion/CTA source image mismatch greater than or equal to 20% 10. CTA shows occlusion or significant stenosis of large vessels (Thrombolysis In Cerebral Ischemia [TICI] grade is 0 or 1) 11. Patients are willing to receive thrombolysis treatment and to give informed consent 12. Patients are willing and able to comply with the study protocol |
Key exclusion criteria | 1. Evidence of IntraCranial Haemorrhage (ICH), brain tumors, vascular malformation, aneurysm, SubArachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH) 2. Major infarct involving greater than 1/3 of Middle Cerebral Artery (MCA) territory on the CTA-SI 3. Presenting obvious neurologic deficits because of past stroke (mRS >2) 4. Severe stroke as assessed clinically (e.g. The National Institute of Health Stroke Scale [NIHSS] >25) and/or by appropriate magnetic imaging techniques. 5. Seizure at onset of stroke 6. Prior stroke within the last 3 months 7. Patients with any history of prior stroke and concomitant diabetes 8. Administration of heparin within the previous 48 hours and a thromboplastin time exceeding the upper limit of normal for laboratory 9. Platelet count of below 100,000/mm3 10. Uncompensated hypertension at study entry or hypertension requiring aggressive treatment to reduce blood pressure to nonhypertensive limits.

Any history of severe central nervous system damage (i.e. neoplasm, aneurysm, intracranial or spinal surgery) 17. Haemorrhagic retinopathy,e.g. in diabetes (vision disturbances may indicate haemorrhagic retinopathy) 18. Bacterial endocarditis, pericarditis 19. Prolonged traumatic external heart massage, or recent (less than 10 days) obstetrical delivery or recent puncture of a non-compressible blood-vessel (e.g. subclavian or jugular vein puncture) 20. Acute pancreatitis 21. Documented ulcerative gastrointestinal disease during the last 3 months, 22. Oesophageal varices, arterial aneurysm, arterial/venous malformation 23. Neoplasm with increased bleeding risk 24. Severe liver disease including hepatic failure, cirrhosis, portal hypertension, oesophageal varices and active hepatitis 25.
