High-affinity Class I GPIIb/IIIa antagonists may enhance r-tPA thrombolysis in vitro; leaves open in vivo efficacy and clinical translation.
High-affinity Class I GPIIb/IIIa antagonists, but not low-affinity Class II antagonists, synergistically enhance thrombolysis when combined with low levels of r-tPA in vitro.
Shaker A. Mousa (2006) studied this question. r-tPA and GPIIb/IIIa antagonists (roxifiban or orbofiban) vs. Class II antagonists (orbofiban) was evaluated on clot lysis. Combination of r-tPA with the high-affinity Class I GPIIb/IIIa antagonist roxifiban synergistically enhanced clot lysis in vitro, whereas the Class II antagonist orbofiban did not.
