Abstract
Although combination therapies were not associated with increased reperfusion compared with full-dose tenecteplase alone, similar TIMI flow grades were achieved despite reductions in tenecteplase doses. ST-segment resolution was more rapid and complete with combination therapy versus full-dose tenecteplase, suggesting enhanced microcirculatory perfusion to the infarct zone in this dose-ranging trial.
