Race against time: new stroke drug trial extends treatment window

NCT ID NCT06987305

Summary

This study is testing whether adding a clot-busting drug (rhTNK-tPA) before standard surgical clot removal improves recovery for stroke patients who arrive at the hospital 4.5 to 24 hours after their symptoms begin. About 820 adults with a major artery blockage will be randomly assigned to receive either the drug or a placebo before their surgery. The main goal is to see if the drug helps more people regain functional independence 90 days after their stroke.
