Effects of the P-selectin antagonist inclacumab on myocardial damage after percutaneous coronary intervention for non-st-segment elevation myocardial infarction: Results of the SELECT-ACS trial

摘要

Objectives: The study aimed to evaluate inclacumab for the reduction of myocardial damage during a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Background: P-selectin is an adhesion molecule involved in interactions between endothelial cells, platelets, and leukocytes. Inclacumab is a recombinant monoclonal antibody against P-selectin, with potential anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic, and antiatherogenic properties. Methods: Patients (N = 544) with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction scheduled for coronary angiography and possible ad hoc PCI were randomized to receive 1 pre-procedural infusion of inclacumab 5 or 20 mg/kg or placebo. The primary endpoint, evaluated in patients who underwent PCI, received study medication, and had available efficacy data (n = 322), was the change in troponin I from baseline at 16 and 24 h after PCI. Results: There was no effect of inclacumab 5 mg/kg. Placebo-adjusted geometric mean percent changes in troponin I with inclacumab 20 mg/kg were -24.4% at 24 h (p = 0.05) and -22.4% at 16 h (p = 0.07). Peak troponin I was reduced by 23.8% (p = 0.05) and area under the curve over 24 h by 33.9% (p = 0.08). Creatine kinase-myocardial band yielded similar results, with changes of -17.4% at 24 h (p = 0.06) and -16.3% at 16 h (p = 0.09). The incidence of creatine kinase-myocardial band increases >3 times the upper limit of normal within 24 h was 18.3% and 8.9% in the placebo and inclacumab 20-mg/kg groups, respectively (p = 0.05). Placebo-adjusted changes in soluble P-selectin level were -9.5% (p = 0.25) and -22.0% (p < 0.01) with inclacumab 5 and 20 mg/kg. There was no significant difference in adverse events between groups. Conclusions: Inclacumab appears to reduce myocardial damage after PCI in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
