14. INTERACT Preliminary Results INTERACT: Summary Compared to a regimen of Eptifibatide and Unfractionated Heparin, Eptifibatide and Enoxaparin is associated with –Lower rates of major hemorrhage –Higher rates of minor hemorrhage –Lower rates of death or recurrent MI –Lower rates of ischemia during and immediately following treatment Compared to a regimen of Eptifibatide and Unfractionated Heparin, Eptifibatide and Enoxaparin is associated with –Lower rates of major hemorrhage –Higher rates of minor hemorrhage –Lower rates of death or recurrent MI –Lower rates of ischemia during and immediately following treatment Goodman et al, ACC 2002

15. INTERACT Preliminary Results LimitationsLimitations This was open-label study, but endpoints were adjudicated in a blinded fashion as was the continuous ECG monitoring The time to coronary angiography/ revascularization (median 110 hours) was longer than that in TACTICS TIMI 18 where the median time to catheterization was 21 hours This was open-label study, but endpoints were adjudicated in a blinded fashion as was the continuous ECG monitoring The time to coronary angiography/ revascularization (median 110 hours) was longer than that in TACTICS TIMI 18 where the median time to catheterization was 21 hours Goodman et al, ACC 2002

16. INTERACT Preliminary Results ConclusionsConclusions Among patients treated with eptifibatide in the setting of high risk non-ST elevation ACS, administration of enoxaparin is associated with improves outcomes compared to currently recommended therapy (UF Heparin) based on better safety and efficacy Goodman et al, ACC 2002
