Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Antagonists in Acute Coronary Syndromes Undergoing PCI: A Long Way to Select Optimal Agent and Route

Abstract: Antiplatelet treatment in patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS), without or with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), forces to keep the balance between potential threats and optimal clinical advantages. Apart from clopidogrel, glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa inhibitors (abciximab and 2 small molecules, tirofiban and eptifibatide) have come to the clinical scene. Recent evidence (2009)(2010)(2011) is reviewed pointing to pharmacoeconometric considerations of concern in times of budget restri… Show more

“…Aspirin kullanımı trombin oluşumunu tam olarak etkilememektedir. Aspirin kullanan bazı bireylerde doku faktörle uyarıya bağlı olarak yüksek oranda trombin oluşumu görülmüştür [21,22]. eptifibatide ve abciximab trombin oluşumunu engellemiştir [22,23].…”

“…Men may experience a greater benefit than women from angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors whereas β-blockers substantially improve survival in women, with possibly a greater benefit than in men. Clopidogrel appears to be equally effective in reducing cardiovascular events in both men and women [ 26 ], as were glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonists in randomized trials [ 10 , 37 ].…”

“…Long-term antiplatelet agents are key components of secondary prevention after acute coronary syndromes (ACS), including STEMI. However, there might be a critical balance to monitor: any effective antiplatelet regimen may be closely related to increased risk for bleeding, often necessitating discontinuation of treatment and directly impinging on a potentially worse long-term outcome [ 6 , 7 ].…”
