A Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Intracoronary Stenting With or Without Abciximab, an Anti-Platelet Therapy, and Conventional Coronary Angioplasty With Abciximab
A Multicenter, Randomized Trial Evaluating 30-day and 6-month Clinical Outcomes With Three Different Treatment Strategies (Coronary Angioplasty + Abciximab, Intracoronary Stent + Abciximab, and Intracoronary Stent + Placebo) in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of intracoronary stenting with or without abciximab, an anti-platelet therapy, and conventional coronary angioplasty with abciximab in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

Study Arms (3)
Angioplasty With Abciximab Plus Low-Dose Heparin
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive conventional angioplasty/atherectomy along with bolus abciximab 0.25 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) of body weight followed by a 0.125 microgram per kilogram per minute (mcg/kg/minute) infusion for 12 hours plus 7 unit per kilogram per hour (U/kg/hr) continuous infusion of heparin.
Intracoronary Stent With Reo Pro Plus Low Dose Heparin
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive intracoronary stent along with receive bolus abciximab 0.25 mg/kg of body weight followed by a 0.125 mcg/kg/minute infusion for 12 hours plus 7 U/kg/hr continuous infusion of heparin (low dose).
Intracoronary Stent With Placebo Plus Standard Dose Heparin
PLACEBO COMPARATORParticipants will receive intracoronary stent along with bolus placebo followed by placebo infusion for 12 hours plus 10 U/kg/hr continuous infusion of heparin (standard dose).
Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients referred for elective or urgent percutaneous coronary intervention
- Who are suitable candidates for either conventional angioplasty or primary intracoronary stent implantation
- Having a target artery (native or graft) stenosis of \>= 60% (visual estimation)
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction within the previous 12 hours
- With a planned staged procedure or having an unprotected left main coronary artery stenosis \> 50%
- With active internal bleeding, having a condition that may increase the risk of bleeding, or receiving ongoing treatment with an oral anticoagulant at the time of study entry
- Having had a percutaneous coronary intervention within the previous 3 months or prior intracoronary stent placement in a target vessel
- Having hypertension with systolic blood pressure \> 180 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure \> 100 mm Hg at the time of study entry, or a platelet count \< 100,000/μL at baseline
