GP Ib inhibition strategies merit human translation studies; leaves open clinical efficacy and bleeding safety in arterial thrombosis.
Does inhibition of platelet GP Ib, GP IIb/IIIa, or both prevent arterial thrombosis in a baboon model of femoral artery stenosis?
Inhibition of platelet GP Ib alone or in combination with a low-dose GP IIb/IIIa blocker prevents arterial thrombosis without increasing bleeding time in a baboon model.
