中风协会理事会包括静脉注射重组组织纤溶酶原激活剂(rtPA)的具体建议。1尽管rtPA能有效改善神经系统结局,但大多数缺血性卒中患者并未接受rtPA治疗,主要是因为他们在目前批准的3小时给药时限后到达。增加治疗机会的一个潜在办法是指定一个较长的治疗时间窗。2-4最近的一项前瞻性研究,欧洲急性卒中合作研究(ECASS)-3,提供了关于rtPA(阿替普酶)治疗3-4.5小时窗口期的新数据。5.围绕这项研究的情况很重要。2002年,欧洲药品评价机构批准在症状发作后3小时内使用rtPA治疗缺血性卒中患者,条件是(1)完成症状发作后3小时窗口内使用rtPA的患者治疗经验的前瞻性登记研究(安全实施卒中溶栓监测研究,或SITS-MOST)6和(2)完成一项前瞻性、随机、安慰剂对照试验,在卒中发作后3至4.5小时内给予rtPA,ECASS-3。5使用特定方案的SITS-MOST报告称,rtPA后24小时症状性脑出血(根据SITS-MOST定义)的频率为1.7%(95%置信区间[CI] 1.4%至2.0%; Wahlgren等人6的图3)。rtPA后24小时,根据科克伦/国家神经疾病和卒中研究所(NINDS)定义的症状性脑出血的频率为7.3%(95% CI 6.7%-7.9%)。相比之下,在随机对照试验汇总数据中,该频率略低于8.6%(Wahlgren等人6的图2)。对于疗效,rtPA患者中90天时改良兰金量表评分为0、1和2的频率为54.8%(95% CI 53.5%-56.0%),与合并样本相当。6这些发现似乎证实了欧洲中心在3小时窗口内rtPA的潜在安全性。此外,安全实施脑卒中溶栓治疗-国际脑卒中治疗注册3至4.5小时研究(SITS-ISTR 3至4.5小时),对2002年12月至2007年11月期间从正在进行的国际登记系统中获得的有限数据进行事后抽样(SITS-ISTR),比较了11865例在症状发作3小时内接受rtPA治疗的患者与664例在3 - 4.5小时内接受治疗的患者。7大多数(72%)在3小时后接受治疗的患者在3至3.5小时之间接受治疗。尽管该研究存在一些缺陷,但在症状性脑出血、死亡率或90天时改良兰金量表评分(0 - 2分)方面,3-4.5小时队列与3小时队列之间无明显差异。7 SITS-ISTR是一项正在进行的登记研究,包括来自SITS-MOST、非欧洲中心和正在进行的研究的经验。美国心脏协会尽一切努力避免因外部关系或撰写小组成员的个人、专业或商业利益而可能产生的任何实际或潜在的利益冲突。具体而言,要求编写小组的所有成员填写并提交一份披露问卷,显示可能被视为真实的或潜在利益冲突的所有此类关系。该咨询于2009年4月22日获得美国心脏协会科学咨询和协调委员会的批准。个...
Association Stroke Council include specific recommendations for the administration of intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA). 1 Despite its effectiveness in improving neurological outcomes, the majority of patients with ischemic stroke are not treated with rtPA, largely because they arrive after the currently approved 3-hour time limit for administration of the medication. One of the potential approaches to increase treatment opportunities has been the designation of a longer time window for treatment. 2–4 A recent prospective study, the European Cooperative Acute Stroke Study (ECASS)-3, has provided new data on rtPA (alteplase) treatment in the 3-to-4.5–hour window. 5 The circumstances surrounding this study are important. In 2002, the European Medicines Evaluation Agency granted license for the use of rtPA for the treatment of ischemic stroke patients within 3 hours of symptom onset on condition of (1) the completion of a prospective registry of patient treatment experience with rtPA given within the 3-hour window from symptom onset (Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke–Monitoring Study, or SITS-MOST) 6 and (2) the completion of a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of rtPA administered between 3 and 4.5 hours after stroke onset, ECASS-3. 5 SITS-MOST, which used a specified protocol, reported that the frequency of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (per the SITS-MOST definition) at 24 hours after rtPA was 1.7%(95% confidence interval [CI] 1.4% to 2.0%; Figure 3 in Wahlgren et al6). The frequency of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage per the Cochrane/National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) definition at 24 hours after rtPA was 7.3%(95% CI 6.7% to 7.9%). By comparison, this frequency was slightly less than 8.6% in data taken from a pool of randomized, controlled trials (Figure 2 in Wahlgren et al6). For efficacy, the frequency of scores of 0, 1, and 2 on the combined modified Rankin scale at 90 days was 54.8%(95% CI 53.5% to 56.0%) among rtPA patients, which was comparable to the pooled sample. 6 These findings appear to confirm the potential safety of rtPA within the 3-hour window in European centers. In addition, the Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke–International Stroke Treatment Registry 3-to-4.5–hour study (SITS-ISTR 3-to-4.5 hour), a post hoc sampling of limited data acquired between December 2002 and November 2007 from the ongoing international registry (SITS-ISTR), compared 11 865 patients treated with rtPA within 3 hours of symptom onset with 664 patients who received treatment within 3 to 4.5 hours. 7 Most (72%) of the patients treated after 3 hours were treated between 3 and 3.5 hours. Although there were several weaknesses in that study, no differences between the 3-to-4.5–hour cohort and the 3-hour cohort were apparent with respect to symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage, mortality, or modified Rankin Scale score of 0 to 2 at 90 days. 7 SITS-ISTR is an ongoing registry that includes experience from SITS-MOST, non-European centers, and active studies.The American Heart Association makes every effort to avoid any actual or potential conflicts of interest that may arise as a result of an outside relationship or a personal, professional, or business interest of a member of the writing panel. Specifically, all members of the writing group are required to complete and submit a Disclosure Questionnaire showing all such relationships that might be perceived as real or potential conflicts of interest.
