Recruitment Details
Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
A total of 2,452 subjects from 20 countries were randomized in this study. The FINESSE (Facilitated INtervention with Enhanced Reperfusion Speed to Stop Events) study began enrollment in August 2002. It was planned that approximately 3,000 subjects would be enrolled. Because of enrollment difficulty, subject enrollment was stopped on 30 Dec 2006.
