The GUARDIAN Trial(Guard During Ischemia Against Necrosis) • A multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, phase IIb/III trial • The first large-scale trial to test the hypothesis that potent and selective Na+/H+ (NHE) inhibition with cariporide provides direct cardiocellular protection in high-risk coronary situations
GUARDIAN Study Design Randomization Patients at riskMI / Death • Entry groups: • UA / non-Q-wave MI • High-risk PCI • High-risk CABG Drug administration IV cariporide for 2 to 7 days • Treatment arms: • Placebo • 20 mg tid • 80 mg tid • 120 mg tid Follow - up • 10 days • 36 days (primary endpoint) • 180 days • Primary Endpoint: • Death or MI • (ECG and CK-MB • evaluation by Core Lab)

APEX AMI Trial: Study Design 5745 patients > 18 yrs with acute MI within 6 hours of symptom onset; high-risk anterior lateral or inferior MI; planned primary PCI; or new left-bundle branch block excluding those with prior fibrinolytic therapy for treatment of the index MI; complement deficiency; pregnant; breast-feeding; isolated, low-risk, inferior wall MI Prospective. Double-Blind. Placebo-Controlled. Randomized. Mean follow-up 90 days. 23% female, mean age 61 years, mean follow-up 90 days. R Placebo 2 mg/kg bolus + 0.05 mg/kg/hr for 24 hours n=2885 Pexelizumab 2mg/kg bolus + 0.05 mg/kg/hr for 24 hours n=2860 90 days follow-up • Primary Endpoint: All-cause mortality through 30 days. • Secondary Endpoint: Death at day 90 and the composite of death, cardiogenic shock, or congestive heart failure through days 30 or 90. Armstrong et al., JAMA. 2007 Jan; 297(1):43 - 51.
APEX AMI Trial: Primary Endpoint Primary endpoint of 30 day mortality • There was no difference in the primary endpoint (mortality at 30 days) between placebo and pexelizumab (3.9% vs 4.1% respectively), ie, each experiencing a low mortality. p = 0.78 % patients Armstrong et al., JAMA. 2007 Jan; 297(1):43 - 51.
F.I.R.E. – a Phase II trial of FX06 in STEMI FX06: A Novel Compound Small peptide derived from the human fibrin sequence Human fibrinopeptide Bß15-42, MW 3039 D Prepared by solid phase peptide synthesis Mode of action FX06: peptide that potently inhibits the binding of fibrin E1 fragment to vascular endothelial (VE) cadherin Preserves endothelial barrier function, prevents capillary leak Inhibits transmigration of inflammatory cells through endothelium Exhibits anti-inflammatory effect F.I.R.E. - Rationale To investigate the cardioprotective efficacy of FX06 as an adjunct to reperfusion therapy in patients with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) To assess safety and tolerability

Mortality in Men and Women, by Age Adapted from Chandra NC et al. Arch Intern Med 1998
STEMI In-hospital mortality 40% 20% <10%
Conclusions Lack of myocardial reperfusion is not uncommen despite angiographic patency of the infarct related coronary (epicardial) artery Hybrid reperfusion strategies have not overcome this limitation after either fibrinolysis or primary PCI
Conclusions With the current <10% case fatality rate in STEMI, it becomes increasingly difficult for new treatment principles to demonstrate superiority on hard endpoints. Conditioning currently holds the greater potential. In the quest to salvage more mycardium and save more lives, there remains a large potential in optimizing the STEMI networks and improving pre-hospital and hospital organisations.
