In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

To date, the benefit of intravenous thrombolysis is confined within 4.5 hours of onset for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients without advanced neuroimaging selection. Unpublished pilot EXIT-BT (EXtending the tIme window of Thrombolysis by ButylphThalide up to 6 Hours after onset) suggest the safety, feasibility and potential benefit of intravenous tenecteplase (TNK) in AIS within 4.5 to 6 hours of onset. The current study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of TNK for AIS within 4.5 to 6 hours of onset.
