Abstract
This trial targeted to analyze the effects of different doses of tirofiban combined with dual antiplatelet drugs on platelet indices, vascular endothelial function, and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with acute ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A total of 180 patients with STEMI who underwent PCI were divided into Group A, Group B, and Group C (60 cases per group). Group A was given conventional medication, and Groups B and C were given a standard dose (10 μg/kg) and a high dose (20 μg/kg) of tirofiban on the basis of Group A, respectively. Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) myocardial perfusion grade and TIMI blood flow grade were compared. Myocardial enzymes, platelet indices, vascular endothelial function, inflammatory factors, and cardiac function indices were detected. In-hospital bleeding events and follow-up MACE were recorded. After PCI, Group C had a higher number of TIMI myocardial perfusion grade III and TIMI blood flow grade III versus Group A. Group C achieved the greatest changes in myocardial enzymes, platelet indices, vascular endothelial function-related factors, inflammatory factors, and cardiac function indices, followed by Group B and Group A. The incidence of bleeding events was higher in Group C than in Group A, and that of MACE in Group C was lower than in Group A. The addition of high-dose tirofiban to PCI and dual antiplatelet drugs for STEMI patients can improve myocardial blood perfusion, cardiac function, and vascular endothelial function, inhibit platelet activation and aggregation, and reduce the occurrence of MACE.

Early tirofiban versus heparin for bridging dual antiplatelet therapy in patients undergoing coronary endarterectomy combined with coronary artery bypass grafting: a multicenter randomized controlled trial protocol (the THACE-CABG trial). Trials 2024; 25:52. [PMID: 38225640 PMCID: PMC10789027 DOI: 10.1186/s13063-023-07737-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/17/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND For complete revascularization, patients with diffuse coronary artery disease should have a coronary endarterectomy and a coronary artery bypass graft (CE-CABG). Sadly, CE can lead to a lack of endothelium, which raises the risk of thrombotic events. Even though daily dual antiplatelet therapies (DAPT) have been shown to reduce thrombotic events, the risk of perioperative thrombotic events is high during the high-risk period after CE-CABG, and there is no consistent protocol to bridge DAPT. This trial aims to compare safety and efficacy between tirofiban and heparin as DAPT bridging strategies after CE-CABG. METHODS In phase I, 266 patients undergoing CE-CABG will be randomly assigned to tirofiban and heparin treatment groups to compare the two treatments in terms of the primary safety endpoint, chest tube drainage in the first 24 h. If the phase I trial shows tirofiban non-inferiority, phase II will commence, in which an additional 464 patients will be randomly assigned. All 730 patients will be studied to compare major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) between the groups in the first 30 days after surgery. DISCUSSION Given the possible benefits of tirofiban administration after CE-CABG, this trial has the potential to advance the field of adult coronary heart surgery.

Ann Cardiol Angeiol (Paris) 2023; 72:101609.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The presence of angiographic thrombus is associated with poor outcomes in contemporary cardiology practice. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in such lesions is associated with slow flow and no-reflow phenomenon which translate into poor clinical outcomes. METHODS This was a single-centre, prospective, open-label, randomized controlled study with 50 patients each in intervention group and control group. Patients with angiographically proven large thrombus burden were recruited. In the intervention group, patients were given loading dose of intracoronary tirofiban (25 mcg/kg infused over 5 minutes) followed by prolonged infusion of tirofiban (0.15 mcg/kg/min for 12-18 hours) followed by PCI after 48-72 hours interval. In control group patients were taken up directly for PCI during the index procedure. Outcomes were assessed angiographically and in terms of clinical endpoints. RESULTS The primary composite-endpoint of recurrent angina, myocardial infarction, cardiovascular death, target lesion revascularization and unscheduled CABG was significantly lower in the intervention arm compared to control arm (4% vs 16%, p = 0.04). Amongst the secondary endpoints, a statistically significant 30-day increase in ejection fraction from baseline was observed in the intervention group compared to the control group (1.6 ± 1.3 vs 0.2 ± 0.4, p = 0.0001). Overall mortality was similar in the two groups (4% vs 8%, p = 0.39). The primary safety endpoint of major bleeding was also similar in the 2 groups (2% vs 0%, p = 0.31). CONCLUSIONS Tirofiban use prior to PCI in high thrombus burden was associated with improved clinical and angiographic endpoints with similar adverse events compared to controls.

Abstract
Anticoagulation therapy is critical to avoiding thrombotic events in patients following cranial surgery. Although Aspirin, Plavix, and Aggrastat are used as anticoagulants for this purpose, there is no consensus on which agent is the most effective and safe. In this comparative study, we analyze the current evidence on the efficacy and safety of these three anticoagulants in the context of cranial surgeries. This review focuses on the advantages and disadvantages of each anticoagulant, such as its pharmacokinetics, indications, contraindications, and possible consequences. The outcomes of this study will help physicians choose the best anticoagulant for their patients based on individual patient characteristics and the kind of cranial procedure. Aggrastat's potential to be included as a recommended anticoagulant for cranial procedures warrants further study.

Efficacy and safety of intracoronary versus intravenous tirofiban in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Heliyon 2023; 9:e15842. [PMID: 37180928 PMCID: PMC10172923 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e15842] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2022] [Revised: 04/22/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Effective antiplatelet therapy is critical for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and receiving primary percutaneous coronary interventions (PPCI). Intracoronary (IC) and intravenous (IV) administration of tirofiban are commonly used during the procedure of PPCI. However, which is the better administration route of tirofiban have not been fully evaluated. Methods A comprehensive literature search of RCTs that comparing IC with IV tirofiban in STEMI patients undergoing PPCI was conducted, which were published as of May 7, 2022, in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Scopus and ClinicalTrials.gov. The primary efficacy endpoint was 30-day major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and the primary safety endpoint was in-hospital bleeding events. Results This meta-analysis included 9 trials involving 1177 patients. IC tirofiban significantly reduced the incidence of 30-day MACE (RR 0.65, 95% CI: 0.44 to 0.95, P = 0.028) and improved the rate of the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) grade 3 flow in high-dose (25 μg/kg) group (RR = 1.13, 95% CI: 0.99-1.30, P = 0.001), in-hospital (WMD 2.03, 95% CI: 1.03 to 3.02, P < 0.001), and 6-month left ventricular injection fraction (LVEF) (WMD 6.01, 95% CI: 5.02 to 6.99, P < 0.001) compared with IV. There was no significant difference in the incidences of in-hospital bleeding events (RR 0.96, 95% CI: 0.67 to 1.38, P = 0.82) and thrombocytopenia (RR 0.63, 95% CI: 0.26 to 1.57, P = 0.32) between the two groups. Conclusions IC tirofiban significantly improved the incidence of TIMI 3 in the high-dose group, in-hospital and 6-month LVEF, and reduced the 30-day MACE incidence without increasing the risk of bleeding compared with IV.
