Evidence Based Results

The primary endpoint of the EPIC trial was death, MI, or urgent intervention at 30 days (placebo 12.8% [n=696], ReoPro 8.3% [n=708], P=0.008, relative reduction 35%).10
The primary endpoint of the EPILOG trial was death, MI, or urgent revascularization at 30 days (placebo + standard-dose heparin 11.7% [n=939], ReoPro + low-dose heparin 5.2% [n=935], P<0.001 vs placebo + standard-dose heparin, relative reduction 56%; ReoPro + standard-dose heparin 5.4% [n=918], P<0.001 vs placebo + standard-dose heparin, relative reduction 54%).11
The primary endpoint of the CAPTURE trial was death, MI, or an urgent intervention within 30 days (placebo 15.9% [n=635] vs. ReoPro 11.3% [n=630], P=0.012). THe troponin data above are from patients without an MI within 14 days prior to randomization.12
The primary endpoint of the EPISTENT trial was death, MI or an urgent intervention within 30 days (placebo+stent 10.8% [n=809] vs. ReoPro+stent 5.3% [n=794], P<0.001). The troponin data above are from patients with an evaluable troponin T at baseline.13
The primary endpoint in TARGET was deathm MI, or an urgent intervention within 30 days (tirofiban 7.6% [n=2398] vs. ReoPro+stent 6.0% [n=2411], P=0.038). The troponin data above are from patients with a recent MI.14
