Summary

Despite being the standard pharmacological reperfusion therapy for acute ischemic stroke, intravenous thrombolysis is limited by suboptimal recanalization rates. Tenecteplase (TNK), a newer thrombolytic agent, offers practical advantages over alteplase, including single bolus administration. However, a significant proportion of patients fail to achieve early clinical improvement after standard thrombolysis, likely due to persistent vessel occlusion.

This study proposes to investigate a rescue strategy for patients who do not show significant neurological improvement within one hour after receiving standard intravenous tenecteplase within 3 hours of stroke onset. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of administering a second dose of tenecteplase in this scenario. The study will also explore the potential efficacy of this approach in improving recanalization and functional outcomes.
