A randomized trial to evaluate the relative protection against post-percutaneous coronary intervention microvascular dysfunction, ischemia, and inflammation among antiplatelet and antithrombotic agents: the PROTECT-TIMI-30 trial.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:The goal of this study was to evaluate glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibition with eptifibatide when administered with indirect thrombin inhibition as compared with monotherapy with direct thrombin inhibition with bivalirudin among patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (ACS). BACKGROUND:The optimal combination of antiplatelet and antithrombin regimens that maximizes efficacy and minimizes bleeding among patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unclear. METHODS:A total of 857 patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS were assigned randomly to eptifibatide + reduced dose unfractionated heparin (n = 298), eptifibatide + reduced-dose enoxaparin (n = 275), or bivalirudin monotherapy (n = 284). RESULTS:Among angiographically evaluable patients (n = 754), the primary end point of post-PCI coronary flow reserve was significantly greater with bivalirudin (1.43 vs. 1.33 for pooled eptifibatide arms, p = 0.036). Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) myocardial perfusion grade more often was normal with eptifibatide treatment compared with bivalirudin (57.9% vs. 50.9%, p = 0.048). The duration of ischemia on continuous Holter monitoring after PCI was significantly longer among patients treated with bivalirudin (169 vs. 36 min, p = 0.013). There was no excess of TIMI major bleeding among patients treated with eptifibatide compared with bivalirudin (0.7%, n = 4 vs. 0%, p = NS), but TIMI minor bleeding was increased (2.5% vs. 0.4%, p = 0.027) as was transfusion (4.4% to 0.4%, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS:Among moderate- to high-risk patients with ACS undergoing PCI, coronary flow reserve was greater with bivalirudin than eptifibatide. Eptifibatide improved myocardial perfusion and reduced the duration of post-PCI ischemia but was associated with higher minor bleeding and transfusion rates. Ischemic events and biomarkers for myonecrosis, inflammation, and thrombin generation did not differ between agents.
