Who might be able to join this trial:

- People who have had an acute stroke caused by a blocked blood vessel, treated with a standard dose of clot-dissolving medication (given through a vein) within 4.5 hours of symptoms starting, and for whom no surgical clot-removal procedure is planned
- People who had a measurable level of neurological impairment before the first clot-dissolving treatment, based on a standard stroke severity score (NIHSS score of 4 or higher)
- People whose brain scans show a certain minimum level of healthy brain tissue remaining (specific scoring thresholds apply — confirm with trial site)
- People who showed little or no improvement, or who got worse after initially improving, within 1 hour of receiving the first clot-dissolving treatment
- People whose follow-up brain scan (taken 1 hour after the first treatment) confirms a blocked vessel is still present and rules out bleeding in the brain
- People for whom a second dose of clot-dissolving medication can be given within 6 hours of stroke symptoms starting
- People experiencing their first stroke, or who have had a previous stroke but with little or no lasting disability (confirm with trial site)
- People who have signed a consent form agreeing to take part
Who may not be able to join:

- People who took two different blood-thinning/antiplatelet medications within 24 hours before the clot-dissolving treatment
- People who are pregnant
