Summary
Subjects with ST-elevation myocardial infarction will be randomized, to one of the following: abciximab infusion with the ClearWay coronary catheter (C), standard abciximab infusion (A), thrombectomy followed by abciximab infusion with the ClearWay catheter (T+C), or thrombectomy followed by standard abciximab infusion (T+A). The primary objective is to demonstrate that abciximab infusion with the ClearWay catheter with or without manual thrombus aspiration (groups C or T+C) will result in a significant reduction of intra-stent thrombus formations when compared to intravenous or intracoronary abciximab with or without thrombectomy (groups A or T+A). The primary endpoint will be the number of cross sections with thrombus area >10% immediately after stent implantation as assessed with OCT. Additional angiographic, ECG, and clinical endpoints will be collected and adjudicated. This trial is currently being registered at ClinicalTrials.gov.
