Brief Summary
The primary focus of this study is to explore the safety of a range of doses of rNAPc2 in subjects who are managed in hospitals that most typically practice an early invasive strategy (catheterization...
Detailed Description
Acute coronary syndromes (ACS), which include unstable angina and non-ST-elevation (non-STE) myocardial infarction, represent a serious clinical condition affecting over 1,000,000 people in the US alo...

- Able to be randomized within 48 hours of recent ischemic events
- At least one of the following criteria (A, B, or C): A. Elevation of CK-MB or troponin above upper limit of normal OR B. ST segment deviation (depression or transient elevation) of at least 0.5 mm OR C. TIMI risk score \>= 3, defined as three or more of the following:
- Age \>= 65;
- At least 3 of the following risk factors: hypertension, diabetes mellitus, current smoker (within 1 year), dyslipidemia, family history of premature coronary artery disease (\< age 60);
- Known or prior coronary artery stenosis \> 50%;
- Daily aspirin use for at least 7 days;
- \>= 2 ischemic episodes at rest lasting \>= 15 minutes each within the prior 24 hours;
- Elevation of CK-MB OR troponin above upper limit of normal;
- ST segment deviation (depression or transient elevation) of at least 0.5 mm.
- Ability to understand and willingness to give written informed consent
- Planned early invasive strategy in the index hospitalization
Exclusion
- Index event is ST-segment elevation MI or new LBBB
- CABG is planned within 7 days
- ACS is secondary to non-atherosclerotic mechanism (e.g. thyrotoxicosis, anemia)
- Prior participation in ANTHEM-TIMI 32, prior exposure to rNAPc2, or participation in a study with any experimental drug or device within 30 days

- Active renal disease, Cr \> 4 mg/dl, or history of renal transplantation
- History of a bleeding diathesis or recurrent bleeding episodes
- Medical comorbidities which place subject at risk for hemorrhage, including, but not limited to, prior cerebral hemorrhage, arteriovenous malformation, non-hemorrhagic CVA or TIA, GI bleed, active PUD, advanced liver or renal disease. Major trauma, surgery, CNS, spinal or eye surgery within 6 months, or parenchymal organ biopsy within 14 days.
- Uncontrolled hypertension (SBP \> 180, DBP \> 100) despite 1 hour of adequate treatment
- Gross hematuria within 1 month unless catheterized and subsequently resolved
- Chronic warfarin (INR \> 1.4) or anticipated therapy for warfarin
- Platelet count \< 120,000/mm3 at randomization or history of thrombocytopenia (confirm in a blue-top tube using sodium citrate)
- Significant anemia (M: Hg \< 11 g/dL, F: Hg \< 10 g/dL) at randomization
- Active liver disease or ALT and AST \> 3 x ULN not felt to be part of presenting ACS
- Fibrinolytic agent within 24 hours or planned use of fibrinolytics
- Known allergy or intolerance to aspirin
- Known allergy to heparin, enoxaparin or pork-based products
- History of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (type 1 or 2)
- Any condition for which the investigator feels enrollment in the study would place the subject at unacceptable risk (e.g. substance abuse)
- Part 2 ONLY: Use of LMWH or Xa inhibitor (e.g. Angiomax, Argatroban) \>= 12 hours before randomization
