Background and Aims:
Intravenous tPA remains the standard of care, with MT currently indicated within 8 hours for IV tPA failures or patients with IV tPA contraindications. Whether LVO patients should receive IV tPA treatment or instead be triaged directly to MT therapy is currently unknown but greatly debated. The Trevo Registry is a real world, multi-center, international study of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) patients treated from 0-24 hours. Evaluation of the Trevo Registry clinical and procedurals outcomes of MT patients treated with or without IV tPA could provide insight into the benefit of IV tPA in MT patients. We hypothesized that in MT patients treated within 8 hours, pretreatment with intravenous tPA would lead to better clinical outcomes compared to patients who did not receive IV tPA.
Method:
Consecutively enrolled patients treated within 8 hours with ICA, M1, or M2 occlusions were selected for analysis. Univariate and multivariable regressions were conducted to identify clinical and radiographic independent variables that correlate best with the dependent variable of functional outcome: mRS 0-2, with a focus on intravenous tPA treatment.
Results:
A total of 1183 Trevo Registry patients (overall enrolled, n=2010) qualified for analysis, of whom 380 were not treated with IV tPA. Demographics were similar, however atrial fibrillation (46.3% vs 27.2%) and previous ischemic stroke (14.1% vs 7.5%) were higher in the no IV tPA group. The median time to treatment was similar (3.8 vs. 3.6 hrs). First pass mTICI ≥ 2B (63.6% vs 66.4%) and final revascularization (91.1% vs 92.8%) were similar between no IV tPA and IV tPA groups.Unadjusted, there were similar rates of functional outcome (90 day mRS 0-2; 60.9% vs. 62.5%). After adjustment, patients who did not receive IV-tPA had similar rates of good outcome (aOR 1.08, 95% CI [0.87-1.34]. P=0.58) as well as reduction (shift) in disability (aOR 1.08, 95% CI [0.87-1.34]. P=0.49). Safety outcomes (mortality, sICH) were similar between both groups.
Conclusion:
In the Trevo Registry of MT patients treated within 8 hours, patients who did not receive IV tPA had similar endovascular and clinical outcomes as patients pretreated with IV tPA. The added benefit of IV tPA for MT patients should be further investigated.
