Official title

A Muticenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled Trial Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Reteplease and Abciximab Combination Therapy With Abciximab Alone Administered Early or Just Prior to Primary Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Acute Myocardial Infarction.

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

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.
