Clot-Busting copycat put to the test in heart attack care
NCT ID NCT05601999
First seen Sep 21, 2026 · Last updated Sep 21, 2026
Summary
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a tenecteplase biosimilar called GNR-060 works as well as the reference drug Metalyse in people having a severe heart attack known as ST elevation myocardial infarction. Participants receive a single weight-based intravenous dose of one drug or the other. Researchers compare how fully blood flow returns to the heart muscle, measured by coronary angiography and ECG changes, along with safety.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- a tenecteplase biosimilar called GNR-060
- What this could lead to
- If it works as well as the reference drug, it could give patients another clot-dissolving option for heart attacks and widen access to this treatment.
- What could go wrong
- Biosimilars can differ slightly from the original drug in ways that affect how well they work or how the body reacts. The trial may show GNR-060 is not equivalent, and even a successful result would not change the need for emergency care and follow-up procedures.
