Two randomized trials in China find that intra-arterial thrombolysis with urokinase or tenecteplase does not significantly improve functional recovery after successful EVT in patients with stroke.

Intra-arterial thrombolysis via urokinase following reperfusion by endovascular thrombectomy for stroke does not affect survival without disability.

It estimated that 20% of stroke patients could benefit from thrombolysis, a drug that breaks down a clot and returns blood supply to the brain, which should be administered within four and a half ...

Recombinant human prourokinase is noninferior to alteplase in acute ischemic stroke, with symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and major bleeding decreased.

A new meta-analysis examines the effects of dual antiplatelet therapy after thrombolysis in minor stroke patients. Findings ...

Tenecteplase provides comparable safety and effectiveness outcomes for acute ischemic stroke as alteplase, new research ...

For patients with ischemic stroke, tenecteplase seems to be a reasonable alternative to alteplase in terms of effectiveness and safety outcomes.

Tenecteplase thus officially joins the other stroke thrombolytic approved stateside, alteplase (Activase), which is also marketed by Genentech. Notably, off-label tenecteplase had already become ...
