Objectives

Narrative objectives1

To test the hypothesis that ischaemic stroke patients of similar age and stroke severity selected with significant perfusion-diffusion mismatch at 3-9 hours post onset of stroke (based on local legally accepted practice and guideline) will have improved clinical outcomes when given intravenous tPA compared to placebo.

Interventions/Control_1

tPA: Tissue Plasminogen Activator (tPA) is given intravenously at the dose of 0.6mg/kg up to a maximum of 60mg, 10% as bolus and the remainder over 1 hour.

Interventions/Control_2

Placebo: Placebo is given intravenously, 10% as bolus and the remainder over 1 hour.

Key inclusion criteria

1. Patients presenting with acute ischemic stroke.
2. Patient, family member or legally responsible person depending on local ethics requirements has given informed consent.
3. Treatment onset can commence after 3 hours and up to and including 9 hours after stroke onset according to registered product information.
4. Patients who wake with stroke may be included if neurological and other exclusion criteria are satisfied. These wake up strokes are defined as having no symptoms at sleep onset, but stroke symptoms on waking. The time of stroke onset is to be taken as the mid-point between sleep onset (or last known to be normal) and time of waking. The maximum time window for randomisation is then 9 hours from the mid-point as described.
5. NIHSS score of 4 - 26 with clinical signs of hemispheric infarction.
Imaging inclusion criteria.
6. Perfusion-diffusion mismatch: Using a Tmax > 6 second delay, a perfusion volume (PWI) to DWI volume (DWI) ratio of greater than 1.2, and a PWI-DWI difference of greater than 10 ml.
7. A DWI lesion of less than or equal to 70 ml.

Key exclusion criteria

1. Intracranial haemorrhage identified by CT or MRI.
2. Rapidly improving symptoms, particularly if in the judgment of the managing clinician that the improvement is likely to result in the patient having an NIHSS score of < 4 at randomization.
3. Pre-stroke mRS score of >= 2.
4. Contra indication to imaging with MR with contrast agents.
5. Infarct core >1/3 MCA territory.
6. Participation in any investigational study in the previous 30 days.
7. Any terminal illness such that patient would not be expected to survive more than 1 year.
8. Any condition that could impose hazards to the patient if study therapy is initiated or affect the participation of the patient in the study.
9. Pregnant women.
10. Previous stroke within last three months.
11. Recent past history or clinical presentation of ICH, subarachnoid haemorrhage, arterio-venous malformation, aneurysm, or cerebral neoplasm.
12. Current use of oral anticoagulants and a prolonged prothrombin time (INR > 1.6).
13. Use of heparin, except for low dose subcutaneous heparin, in the previous 48 hours and a prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time exceeding the upper limit of the local laboratory normal range.
14. Use of glycoprotein IIb - IIIa inhibitors within the past 72 hours. Use of single or dual agent oral platelet inhibitors (clopidogrel and/or low-dose aspirin) prior to study entry is permitted.
15. Clinically significant hypoglycaemia.
16. Uncontrolled hypertension defined by a blood pressure > 185 mmHg systolic or >110 mmHg diastolic on at least 2 separate occasions at least 10 minutes apart, or requiring aggressive treatment to reduce the blood pressure to within these limits.
17. Hereditary or acquired haemorrhagic diathesis.
18. Gastrointestinal or urinary bleeding within the preceding 21 days.
19. Major surgery within the preceding 14 days which poses risk in the opinion of the investigator.
20. Exposure to a thrombolytic agent within the previous 72 hours.

Other related information

In April 2012, the principal investigator concluded that we were not able to participate the EXTEND trial because of a low dose (0.6mg/kg) use of tPA in Japan.
Consequently, we abandoned to start the trial.
