ProUrokinase in Mild IsChemic strokE (PUMICE)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of rhPro-UK (35mg) versus standard medical treatment in acute mild ischemic stroke within 4.5 hours of symptom onset.
| Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |

Phase 3 |
Detailed Description
After being informed about the study and potential risks, patients who meet the eligibility requirements will be randomized to recombinant human Prourokinase for injection (rhPro-UK) or standard medical treatment in a 1:1 ratio. Written informed consent will be needed.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: rhPro-UK (35mg) rhPro-UK: 35 mg (5 mg per vial, 7 vials in total) Dissolve 15mg (3 vials) of rhPro-UK in 10ml of saline and intravenous bolus within 3 minutes, and dissolve the remaining 20mg (4 vials) in 90ml of saline and intravenous drip within 30 minutes. (Note: after adding saline, overturn it gently once to twice, do not shake vigorously, so as to avoid foaming of the rhPro-UK solution and reduce the efficacy). |
Drug: Recombinant Human Prourokinase for Injection (rhPro-UK)
15mg of rhPro-UK intravenous bolus within 3 minutes, and the remaining 20mg intravenous drip within 30 minutes.

-
Blood glucose <2.8 or >22.2 mmol/L (on random glucose testing is acceptable);

Any known impairment in coagulation due to comorbid disease or anticoagulant use. If on warfarin, then INR >1.7 or prothrombin time >15 seconds; if use of any direct thrombin inhibitors or direct factor Xa inhibitors or new oral anticoagulants (NOAC) during the last 48 hours unless reversal of effect can be achieved with a reversal agent (by idarucizumab) or sensitivity laboratory test values greater than the upper limit of normal (eg, activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), international normalized ratio (INR), platelet count, thrombin time (TT), or appropriate factor Xa activity assay); if on any full dose heparin/heparinoid during the last 24 hours or with an elevated aPTT greater than the upper limit of normal;
-
Known defect of platelet function or platelet count below 100,000/mm3 (but patients on antiplatelet agents can be included);
