Evolving Thrombolytics: from Alteplase to Tenecteplase
AbstractAlteplase has been the primary thrombolytic used in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke since thrombolysis was first established as an effective treatment of acute ischemic stroke in 1995. Tenecteplase, a genetically modified tissue plasminogen activator, has gained attention as an attractive alternative to alteplase given its practical workflow advantages and possible superior efficacy in large vessel recanalization. As more data is analyzed both from randomized trials and non-randomized patient registries, there is mounting support that tenecteplase appears to be at least equally, if not more, safe and potenti...

Intravenous thrombolysis of ischemic stroke-Current status
Nervenarzt. 2023 May 30. doi: 10.1007/s00115-023-01500-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIntravenous thrombolysis (IVT) treatment with alteplase (rtPA) is an essential part of the routine treatment of patients with ischemic stroke since its introduction in the late 1990s. Rapid treatment is of essential importance. For patients with an unclear time window, various mismatch concepts have been established to identify salvageable brain tissue prior to IVT. Numerous official contraindications for rtPA are not evidence-based; for example, current data from observational studies show that systemic thrombolytic treatment is possib...

Cost-effectiveness of endovascular thrombectomy with alteplase versus endovascular thrombectomy alone for acute ischemic stroke secondary to large vessel occlusion
CMAJ Open. 2023 May 16;11(3):E443-E450. doi: 10.9778/cmajo.20220096. Print 2023 May-Jun.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Recent randomized trials have suggested that endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) alone may provide similar functional outcomes as the current standard of care, EVT combined with intravenous alteplase treatment, for acute ischemic stroke secondary to large vessel occlusion. We conducted an economic evaluation of these 2 therapeutic options.METHODS: We constructed a decision analytic model with a hypothetical cohort of 1000 patients to assess the cost-effectiveness of EVT with intravenous alteplase treatment versus EVT alo...
