The Use of Roxifiban (DMP754), a Novel Oral Platelet Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Receptor Inhibitor, in Patients with Stable Coronary Artery Disease

Introduction: Intravenous platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptor inhibitors have a significant beneficial impact on the outcomes of patients undergoing high-risk coronary interventions and in the stabilization of patients with unstable angina pectoris refractory to conventional medical treatment.

Abstract

Introduction: Intravenous platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptor inhibitors have a significant beneficial impact on the outcomes of patients undergoing high-risk coronary interventions and in the stabilization of patients with unstable angina pectoris refractory to conventional medical treatment. The role of long-term treatment with oral platelet GP IIb/IIIa receptor inhibitors in patients with coronary artery disease is unproven. This study examined the dose-response effect on inhibition of platelet aggregation by roxifiban (DMP754), a novel oral platelet GP IIb/IIIa receptor inhibitor, and its safety and tolerability in patients with a history of chronic stable angina pectoris.
