Publication Associations of Early Systolic Blood Pressure Control and Outcome After Thrombolysis- Eligible Acute Ischemic Stroke: Results From the ENCHANTED Study(2022) Wang, Xia; Minhas, Jatinder S.; Moullaali, Tom J.; Di Tanna, Gian Luca; Lindley, Richard I.; Chen, Xiaoying; Arima, Hisatomi; Chen, Guofang; Delcourt, Candice; Bath, Philip M.; Broderick, Joseph P.; Demchuk, Andrew M.; Donnan, Geoffrey A.; Durham, Alice C.; Lavados, Pablo; Lee, Tsong-Hai; Levi, Christopher; Martins, Sheila O.; Olavarría, Verónica V.; Pandian, Jeyaraj D.; Parsons, Mark W.; Pontes-Neto, Octavio M.; Ricci, Stefano; Sato, Shoichiro; Sharma, Vijay K.; Silva, Federico; Thang, Nguyen H.; Wang, Ji-Guang; Woodward, Mark; Chalmers, John; Song, Lili; Anderson, Craig S.; Robinson, Thompson G.BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In thrombolysis-eligible patients with acute ischemic stroke, there is uncertainty over the most appropriate systolic blood pressure (SBP) lowering profile that provides an optimal balance of potential benefit (functional recovery) and harm (intracranial hemorrhage). We aimed to determine relationships of SBP parameters and outcomes in thrombolyzed acute ischemic stroke patients. METHODS: Post hoc analyzes of the ENCHANTED (Enhanced Control of Hypertension and Thrombolysis Stroke Study), a partial-factorial trial of thrombolysis-eligible and treated acute ischemic stroke patients with high SBP (150–180 mm Hg) assigned to low-dose (0.6 mg/kg) or standard-dose (0.9 mg/kg) alteplase and intensive (target SBP, 130–140 mm Hg) or guideline-recommended (target SBP <180 mm Hg) treatment. All patients were followed up for functional status and serious adverse events to 90 days. Logistic regression models were used to analyze 3 SBP summary measures postrandomization: attained (mean), variability (SD) in 1–24 hours, and magnitude of reduction in 1 hour. The primary outcome was a favorable shift on the modified Rankin Scale. The key safety outcome was any intracranial hemorrhage. RESULTS: Among 4511 included participants (mean age 67 years, 38% female, 65% Asian) lower attained SBP and smaller SBP variability were associated with favorable shift on the modified Rankin Scale (per 10 mm Hg increase: odds ratio, 0.76 [95% CI, 0.71–0.82]; P<0.001 and 0.86 [95% CI, 0.76–0.98]; P=0.025) respectively, but not for magnitude of SBP reduction (0.98, [0.93– 1.04]; P=0.564). Odds of intracranial hemorrhage was associated with higher attained SBP and greater SBP variability (1.18 [1.06–1.31]; P=0.002 and 1.34 [1.11–1.62]; P=0.002) but not with magnitude of SBP reduction (1.05 [0.98–1.14]; P=0.184). CONCLUSIONS: Attaining early and consistent low levels in SBP <140 mm Hg, even as low as 110 to 120 mm Hg, over 24 hours is associated with better outcomes in thrombolyzed acute ischemic stroke patients.Item Low- versus standard-dose alteplase in patients on prior antiplatelet therapy: the ENCHANTED trial (enhanced control of hypertension and thrombolysis stroke study)(American Heart Association, 2017) Robinson, Thompson; Wang, Xia; Arima, Hisatomi; Bath, Philip; Billot, Laurent; Broderick, Joseph; Demchuk, Andrew M; Donnan, Geoffery; Kim, Jong S; Lavados, Pablo; Lee, Tsong-Hai; Lindley, Richard; Martins, Sheila; Olavarria, Veronica; Pandian, Jeyaraj; Parsons, Mark W.; Pontes-Neto, Octavio; Ricci, Stefano; Sato, Shoichiro; Sharma, Vijay; Nguyen, Thang; Wang, Ji-Guang; Woodward, Mark; Chalmers, John; Anderson, Craig; ENCHANTED InvestigatorsBACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Many patients receiving thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke are on prior antiplatelet therapy (APT), which may increase symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage risk. In a prespecified subgroup analysis, we report comparative effects of different doses of intravenous alteplase according to prior APT use among participants of the international multicenter ENCHANTED study (Enhanced Control of Hypertension and Thrombolysis Stroke Study). METHODS: Among 3285 alteplase-treated patients (mean age, 66.6 years; 38% women) randomly assigned to low-dose (0.6 mg/kg) or standard-dose (0.9 mg/kg) intravenous alteplase within 4.5 hours of symptom onset, 752 (22.9%) reported prior APT use. Primary outcome at 90 days was the combined end point of death or disability (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] scores, 2-6). Other outcomes included mRS scores 3 to 6, ordinal mRS shift, and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage by various standard criteria. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in outcome between patients with and without prior APT after adjustment for baseline characteristics and management factors during the first week; defined by mRS scores 2 to 6 (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 1.01; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.81-1.26; P=0.953), 3 to 6 (OR, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.75-1.20; P=0.662), or ordinal mRS shift (OR, 1.03; 95% CI, 0.87-1.21; P=0.770). Alteplase-treated patients on prior APT had higher symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (OR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.00-3.30; P=0.051) according to the safe implementation of thrombolysis in stroke-monitoring study definition. Although not significant (P-trend, 0.053), low-dose alteplase tended to have better outcomes than standard-dose alteplase in those on prior APT compared with those not using APT (mRS scores of 2-6; OR, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.62-1.12 versus OR, 1.16; 95% CI, 0.99-1.36). CONCLUSIONS: Low-dose alteplase may improve outcomes in thrombolysis-treated acute ischemic stroke patients on prior APT, but this requires further evaluation in a randomized controlled trial.
