Brief Summary:
Patients presenting to the emergency department with acute ischemic stroke, who are are eligible for standard intravenous thrombolytic therapy within 4.5 hours of stroke onset will be assessed for major vessel occlusion to determine their eligibility for the trial. All participants will receive intravenous tenecteplase and endovascular thrombectomy as standard care. The trial is a Bayesian Optimised Phase 2 dose-finding umbrella trial (single arm versus objective performance criterion of 20% substantial reperfusion prior to endovascular thrombectomy based on the EXTEND-IA TNK trials NCT02388061, NCT03340493). The aim is to determine the optimal dose of intravenous dornase alfa (recombinant human DNase 1) with sufficient promise to take forward in a seamless phase 2b/3 design.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Intravenous Dornase alfa (DNase)
Patients will receive a single intravenous dose of dornase alfa (at either 0.125mg/kg, 0.25mg/kg, or 0.5mg/kg in escalating tiers), administered as a bolus over ~30 seconds.
Drug: Dornase Alfa
Intravenous Dornase alfa
Other Names:
  • DNase
  • Pulmozyme




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Proportion of patients with substantial angiographic reperfusion or absence of retrievable intracranial thrombus at initial angiogram without symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage [ Time Frame: 24 hours post-treatment ]
    composite outcome of reperfusion on initial angiogram (day 0 - expanded Treatment In Cerebral Infarction [eTICI] 2b-3 or no retrievable intracranial thrombus) and assessment of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage on brain imaging 24h post-treatment. eTICI 2b-3 indicates reperfusion of >50% of the initially involved arterial territory.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 3 months [ Time Frame: 3 months post stroke ]
    ordinal analysis versus EXTEND-IA TNK I & II historical control, adjusted for age and baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score. mRS is a functional outcome/disability score from 0 (no disability) to 6 (death). NIHSS is a neurological impairment score from 0 (no deficit) to 42 (death)

  2. modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-1 or no change from baseline at 3 months [ Time Frame: 3 months post stroke ]
    versus EXTEND-IA TNK I & II historical control, adjusted for age and baseline NIHSS score

  3. modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-2 or no change from baseline at 3 months [ Time Frame: 3 months post stroke ]
    versus EXTEND-IA TNK I & II historical control, adjusted for age and baseline NIHSS score

  4. Proportion of patients with 8 point reduction in NIHSS or reaching 0-1 at 3 days (early neurological improvement) [ Time Frame: 3 days post stroke ]
    versus EXTEND-IA TNK I & II historical control, adjusted for age and baseline NIHSS score

  5. Proportion of patients with near-complete reperfusion (eTICI 2c/3) at conclusion of the endovascular procedure [ Time Frame: day 0 (end of endovascular thrombectomy) ]
    versus EXTEND-IA TNK I & II historical control

  6. Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (SICH) [ Time Frame: 36 hours post treatment ]
    Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage includes any sub-arachnoid bleeding associated with clinical symptoms and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH). SICH is defined as "Intracerebral hemorrhage (parenchymal hematoma type 2 - PH2 within 36 hours of treatment) combined with neurological deterioration leading to an increase of ≥4 points on the NIHSS from baseline, or death"

  7. Death due to any cause [ Time Frame: up to 3 months post stroke ]
    versus EXTEND-IA TNK I & II historical control, adjusted for age and baseline NIHSS
