Abciximab i.v. Versus i.c. in Primary PCI Patients With STEMI

NCT00299377 ↗

Phase 2/3 Completed 150 enrolled University of Leipzig
RandomizedParallel-groupSingle-blindTreatment

Summary

Randomized comparison of abciximab i.v. versus i.c. in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI. The hypothesis is, that higher concentration of abciximab i.c. leads to improved epicardial flow, perfusion, reduction of no-reflow, reduction in infarct size and subsequently better outcome.

Outcome

Met primary endpoint

paper The median infarct size was 15.1% (interquartile range, 6.1% to 25.2%) in the intracoronary versus 23.4% (interquartile range, 13.6% to 33.2%) in the intravenous group (P=0.01). PMID 18559698 ↗

paper Similarly, the extent of microvascular obstruction was significantly smaller in intracoronary compared with intravenous abciximab patients (P=0.01). PMID 18559698 ↗
