Fibrinolytic therapy

All India Institute of Medical Sciences · Phase 3 active Small molecule

Fibrinolytic therapy is a Fibrinolytic agent / Thrombolytic Small molecule drug developed by All India Institute of Medical Sciences. It is currently in Phase 3 development for Acute myocardial infarction (ST-elevation MI), Acute ischemic stroke, Pulmonary embolism. Also known as: Thrombolytic therapy, DNAse / tPA combination therapy..

Fibrinolytic therapy dissolves blood clots by activating plasminogen to plasmin, which breaks down fibrin and restores blood flow.

Likelihood of approval
56.3% vs 58.3% industry baseline
If approved by FDA: likely 2028–2030
Steps remaining: NDA/BLA submission
Confidence: High
Why this estimate
  • Baseline phase 3 → approval rate +58.3pp
    Industry-wide phase 3 drugs reach approval ~58.3% of the time (BIO/Informa 2023 industry benchmark across all therapeutic areas).
  • Cardiovascular Phase 3 risk -2.0pp
    Modern cardiovascular outcome trials are large + long; many fail to beat aggressive standard-of-care.
Predicted approval windows by jurisdiction (conditional on FDA approval)
Regulator Country Likely year Lag vs FDA
FDA US 2028–2030
EMA EU 2029–2031 +0.7 yr
MHRA GB 2029–2031 +0.7 yr
Health Canada CA 2029–2032 +0.9 yr

Mechanism of action

Fibrinolytic agents (thrombolytics) work by converting the inactive zymogen plasminogen into its active form, plasmin, which then degrades fibrin—the structural protein that holds blood clots together. This enzymatic degradation dissolves existing thrombi and restores perfusion to ischemic tissues. Common fibrinolytic agents include tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), streptokinase, and urokinase.
