Background In diabetic patients undergoing PCI the use of platelet glycoprotein (Gp) IIb/IIIa inhibitors reduce short- and long-term mortality 1-3 Contemporaty guidelines recommend platelet Gp IIb/IIIa inhibitors administration in diabetic patients undergoing elective and urgent PCI4-5 1 Roffi M. et al.Circulation 2001; 104: 2767 2 Topol EJ. et al.Lancet 1999; 354: 2019 3 Bhatt DL. et al.JACC 2000; 35: 922 4 Ryden L. et al.Eur Heart J 2007; 28: 88 5 King SB. et al.JACC 2008; 51: 172
Background Bivalirudin is a direct thrombin inhibitor that demonstrated antiplatelet and anti-inflammatory properties similar to the combination of unfractionated heparin (UFH) plus Gp IIb/IIIa inhibitors 1-2 Unlike UFH, bivalirudin3-4 does not activate platelets is able to interfere with both circulating and clot-bound thrombin when added to clopidogrel, it achieves additional inhibition of platelet function decreasing platelet surfage coverage 1 Keating FK. et al.Thrombosis research 2004; 113: 27 2 Lev EI. et al.Thrombosis and Haemostasis 2006; 95: 441 3 Sibbing D. et al.Eur Heart J 2008; 29: 1504 4 Anand SX. et al.Am J Cardiol 2007; 100: 417
Background Few data exist comparing bivalirudin with UFH plus GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors in diabetic patients Post-hoc analysis of REPLACE-2 and ACUITY 1-2 no difference in short and long-term ischemic events lower rate of major bleeding 1 Gurm HS. et al.JACC 2005; 45: 1932 2 Feit F. et al.JACC 2008; 51: 1645
Purpose To compare the acute and 1-month safety, tolerability and efficacy of Bivalirudin alone as compared to unfractionated heparin (UFH) plus tirofiban in diabetic patients undergoing elective PCI
NAPLES • DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, double-arm, single-center clinical study Diabetic Patients Elective PCI Biomarker negative ASA Clopidogrel (loading dose 300 mg the day before procedure) Bivalirudin alone UFH + Tirofiban Elective PCI 30 day endpoints Death, MI, IUR, ACUITY major bleeding (net clinical outcome)
Sample size Hypothesis: Riduction in the primary composite endpoint from 38% in the UFH plus tirofiban group to 23.5% in the Bivalirudin alone group1 Sample size: A total of 316 patients (158 each group) will be necessary to gave the study 80% power and a significance level <0.05 1 REPLACE-2 trial - Lincoff AM, et al.JAMA 2003; 289: 853

Conclusions • In diabetic patients undergoing elective PCI the antithrombotic strategy of bivalirudin monotherapy compared with unfractionated heparin plus tirofiban is safe and feasible. • Antithrombotic regimen with bivalirudin alone suppresses adverse 30-day ischaemic events to a similar extent as does unfractionated heparin plus tirofiban. • Bivalirudin administration compared with unfractionatedheparin plus tirofiban is associated with a reduction of bleeding. • Bivalirudin administration, compared with unfractionatedheparin plus tirofiban, results in a significant decrease of the composite end-point of30-day death, urgent revascularization, myocardial infarction and bleeding.
