Amplified inhibition of atherosclerotic plaque-induced platelet activation by glenzocimab with dual antiplatelet therapy
CONCLUSIONS: Addition of glenzocimab to aspirin and ticagrelor enhances platelet inhibition via multiple mechanisms of atherothrombosis. Compared to a GPIIb/IIIa inhibitor, glenzocimab shares multiple antithrombotic effects, with less inhibition of mechanisms involved in general haemostasis.PMID:37541591 | DOI:10.1016/j.jtha.2023.07.018 (Source: Thrombosis and Haemostasis)

O-015 The safety and efficacy of cangrelor use in endovascular thrombectomy compared with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors
ConclusionCangrelor use was associated with a decreased risk of hemorrhagic conversion and may lead to favorable functional outcomes for patients during hospitalization when compared to GPI use. Future prospective studies are warranted to investigate its use in EVT.Disclosures A. Devarajan: None. S. Gottiparthi: None. J. Zhang: None. D. Goldman: None. A. Schupper: None. C. Rossitto: None. J.

E-014 Stent-assisted coiling for treatment of acutely ruptured cerebral aneurysm
ConclusionSAC is an effective and feasible procedure for acutely ruptured aneurysm. Despite relatively high ischemic complication, favorable outcome could be achieved in majority of patients even in patients with high grade SAH. Usage of Dual antiplatelets in these patients could increase hemorrhagic complications of neurosurgical procedures.Disclosures H. Baharvahdat: None. F. Qoorchi Moheb Seraj: None. M. Vaezi: None. F.

E-033 Optimization of endovascular treatment for patients with acute carotid plaque rupture and free- floating thrombus by use of two overlapping closed-cell stents with different radial force
ConclusionUse of the Carotid Wallstent as the first stent to secure the free-floating thrombus allows save delivery of the Xact stent which then adds a second closed-cell mesh layer as well as the needed radial force to expand the stent construct. This approach may decrease if not eliminate the need for post-stent angioplasty in the acute setting thus decreasing risk of thromboembolic complication.Disclosures A. Kuhn: None. J. Singh: None. S.

E-073 Acute loading doses of antiplatelets and long-term antiplatelets regimen in stent-assisted repair of intracranial aneurysms
ConclusionsOur study revealed that LDAC in SARIA is associated with a low immediate and long-term TEE without added risk of ICH and good outcome with no mortality or permanent disability. Our antiplatelets regimen may be an option in SARIA. Further studies are required to evaluate our antiplatelets strategies on FD.Disclosures Y. Lodi: None. V. Reddy: None.

How an Aggressive Treatment of No-reflow Phenomenon in Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with High Thrombus Burden can Achieve a Grade III TIMI-flow: A Case Report
Conclusion Aggressive and precise treatment with a drug of choice is required to counteract the no-reflow phenomenon. Presently, only a limited range of first-line medications are available to treat this condition. Not only that, but several of the prescribed medications are not easily accessible, especially in developing countries. Therefore, we offer a novel combination medicaments consisting of nitroglycerin, heparin, and glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor as an alternative treatment of the no-reflow phenomenon.

Fibrin-glycoprotein VI interaction increases platelet procoagulant activity and impacts clot structure
CONCLUSION: Our findings showed that GPVI-fibrin interaction significantly contributes to the development of procoagulant platelets and that inhibition of GPVI signaling increases clot porosity. Clot contractibility was impaired by the integrin αIIbβ3 and Btk pathway inhibition. Thus, inhibition of GPVI-fibrin interactions can alleviate structural characteristics that contribute to a prothrombotic clot phenotype, having potential important implications for novel antithrombotic interventions.PMID:36696196 | DOI:10.1016/j.jtha.2022.09.004 (Source: Thrombosis and Haemostasis)

An Updated Review on Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Inhibitors as Antiplatelet Agents: Basic and Clinical Perspectives
AbstractThe glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptor is found integrin present in platelet aggregations. GP IIb/IIIa antagonists interfere with platelet cross-linking and platelet-derived thrombus formation through the competition with fibrinogen and von Willebrand factor. Currently, three parenteral GP IIb/IIIa competitors (tirofiban, eptifibatide, and abciximab) are approved for clinical use in patients affected by percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) in the location of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). GP IIb/IIIa antagonists have their mechanism of action in platelet aggregation prevention, distal thromboembolism, and thr...
