Intra-arterial tenecteplase for acute stroke after successful endovascular therapy

JAMA

Peer-Reviewed Publication

About The Study: In patients with acute large vessel occlusion presenting between 4.5 and 24 hours of symptom onset, intra-arterial tenecteplase after successful thrombectomy had a greater likelihood of excellent neurological outcome at 90 days without increasing the risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage or mortality. However, because none of the secondary efficacy analyses supported the primary finding, further trials are needed to confirm the results.
