Interventional Pharmacology • Heparin (UFH) • GP IIb/IIIa Receptor Antagonists • Low Molecular Weight Heparins • Direct Thrombin Inhibitors • Thienopyridines

Unfractionated Heparin Advantages Disadvantages • Multiple sites of action in coagulation cascade (IIa,Xa) • Long history of successful clinical use • Readily monitored by aPTT and ACT • Very inexpensive • Indirect thrombin inhibitor (does not inhibit clot-bound thrombin) • Nonspecific binding to: • Plasma proteins • Endothelial cells (variable anticoagulation level) • Inhibited by platelet factor 4 • reduced effect in ACS • Causes platelet aggregation • Risk of HIT Hirsh J, et al. Circulation. 2001;103:2994-3018

STEEPLE Trial: Primary Endpoint Non-CABG Major or Minor Bleeding at 48 hrs p=0.052 vs UFH p=0.014 vs UFH Lower bleeding rate was observed overall and in the GP IIb/IIIa subgroup Montalescot: NEJM 2006;355:1006-1017
STEEPLE Trial Analysis of Major Bleeding p=0.007 vs UFH p=0.005 vs UFH 57% lower with Enoxaparin Montalescot: NEJM 2006;355:1006-1017
STEEPLE Trial: Secondary Endpoint Patients reaching target anticoagulation levels at the start and end of procedure p<0.001 vs Enox Montalescot: NEJM 2006;355:1006-1017
STEEPLE Trial Summary • Reduced dose enoxaparin had less major or minor bleeding at 48 hrs than UFH • Lower dose IV enoxaparin for PCI offers a safety advantage over ACT-guided UFH
