Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether abciximab given in combination with reteplase, before patients have a coronary intervention (a standard treatment where a catheter is inserted into the heart artery to get blood flowing past the clot), is safe and effective in the treatment of heart attacks compared to only abciximab given during coronary intervention.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this medical research study is to determine whether abciximab given in combination with reteplase, before patients have a coronary intervention (a standard treatment where a catheter is inserted into the heart artery to get blood flowing past the clot), is safe and effective in the treatment of heart attacks compared to only abciximab given during coronary intervention. This medical research study will also help determine if the combination of abciximab and reduced dose reteplase will decrease the risk of death, and reduce complications of a heart attack at 90 days compared to abciximab alone which is a standard treatment.

Patients will receive either abciximab and reteplease or abciximab alone. Safety evaluations will be performed at specified intervals throughout the study and will consist of laboratory tests, vital signs (such as blood pressure), physical examinations and the occurrence and severity of adverse events as well as other study specific procedures. Patients will receive either abciximab and reteplease or abciximab and placebo into a vein in their arm for up to 12 hours.

Study Results

Participant Flow

Recruitment Details The study was conducted in 20 countries. The FINESSE (Facilitated INtervention with Enhanced Reperfusion Speed to Stop Events) study began enrollment in August 2002. It was planned that approximately 3,000 subjects would be enrolled. Because of enrollment difficulty, subject enrollment was stopped on 30 Dec 2006.
Pre-assignment Detail A total of 2,461 subjects were enrolled in the study according to the sponsor's clinical trial management system. Out of 2461 subjects, 2,452 subjects were randomly assigned to the 3 treatment groups.

Comments The null hypothesis is if reteplase/abciximab facilitated PCI is the same as the primary PCI in terms of the primary efficacy outcome. Assuming the relative risk reduction for the reteplase/abciximab facilitated PCI group versus the Primary PCI group is 15% in lower risk, 25% in medium risk, and 35% in high risk, the power of this comparison (1,000 subjects per group) is 83.4 %.
