What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of two drugs, intravenous tenecteplase and intravenous alteplase, for treating acute ischemic stroke. This condition can cause serious disability and death, and timely treatment is crucial. Tenecteplase is a newer drug with potential advantages, such as easier administration and longer action, compared to the standard alteplase. The study aims to compare these treatments when given on mobile stroke units within 4.5 hours of stroke symptom onset. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either tenecteplase at a dose of 0.25 mg/kg or alteplase at 0.9 mg/kg intravenously. Both treatments are administered on mobile stroke units shortly after stroke symptoms begin. This study is a prospective multicenter randomized controlled trial conducted by Mahidol University to assess which drug may offer better neurological outcomes and safety in the early treatment of stroke. During the trial, researchers will monitor participants' neurological status using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at 3 months and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at 24 hours. The study includes follow-up visits to assess recovery and any side effects. Participation involves receiving study treatment promptly and attending scheduled assessments to track progress and safety over time.
