6. History of intracranial or intraspinal surgery within the past 90 days.
7. Major surgery or severe trauma in the past 14 days.
8. History of cerebral amyloid angiopathy.
9. History of systemic malignancy, except for locally excised basal cell or squamous cell skin carcinoma with clear margins.
10. Diagnosis of serious, advanced, or terminal illness with anticipated life expectancy of less than 1 year.
11. Participation in other interventional clinical trials within the previous 90 days.
12. Known life-threatening hypersensitivity reaction to TAK-755 or its components.
13. Any prior administration of TAK-755.
14. Administration of caplacizumab in the past 30 days.
15. Administration of von Willebrand factor-containing products in the past 14 days.
16. Baseline conditions (prior to the index AIS event) that prevent an understanding of the nature, scope, and possible consequences of the trial, in the judgment of the investigator.
Current Stroke Management:
17. Any prior administration (intravenous or intra-arterial) of alteplase or tenecteplase for the index AIS event, as well as any prior administration of prourokinase or reteplase for the index AIS event in countries where approved.
18. Eligible for administration of intravenous thrombolysis (alteplase or tenecteplase, as well as prourokinase or reteplase in countries where approved) for the index AIS event, based on the site's standard clinical guidelines and direct availability.
19. Intent to proceed with endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for the index AIS event based on eligibility and direct availability.
20. Seizure at time of index AIS event onset.
21. Persistent blood pressure elevation (systolic \>=185 millimeters of mercury \[mmHg\] or diastolic \>=110 mm Hg) prior to randomization.
22. Blood glucose \<50 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or \>400 mg/dL.
Current Medical Conditions:
23. Active, uncontrolled bleeding.
24. Bleeding diathesis or any other conditions that would pose significant bleeding risk.
25. Inability to undergo MRI or CT.
26. Rapidly improving AIS symptoms.
27. Chronic causative intracranial occlusion.
28. Causative total occlusion of the extracranial ICA.
29. Evidence of septic emboli or bacterial endocarditis.
30. Another clinically significant concomitant disease that may pose additional risks for the participant in the opinion of the investigator.
31. Pregnancy, lactation, or unable to comply with birth control methods or abstinence as specified in the protocol in the opinion of the investigator.
Imaging:
32. Poor quality imaging that precludes interpretation according to trial protocol.
33. Evidence of significant intracranial mass effect or midline shift.
34. Evidence of occlusion in \>1 vascular territory.
35. Evidence of acute or chronic intracranial hemorrhage.
36. Evidence of extensive early ischemic change estimated to be greater than one-third of the middle cerebral artery territory.
37. Evidence of intracranial tumor (except incidental, small meningioma), cerebral aneurysm, or arteriovenous malformation.
Laboratory:
38. Platelet count \<50,000/ cubic millimeters (mm\^3).
Other:
39. Identification by the investigator as being potentially unable or unwilling to cooperate with trial procedures.
