Background: Currently available fibrinolytic agents are limited by their ability to restore normal blood flow in only half of patients, the risk of reocclusion, and the risk of intracranial hemorrhage. The genetically engineered agent BB-10153 is activated by thrombin, not plasminogen activator enzymes, which limits its activity to the site of thrombus which may in turn reduce the risk of systemic bleeding. BB-10153 also has a relatively long half-life of 3-4 hours, which may also limit the potential for early reocclusion [1, 2].
