Fondaparinux Trial with Unfractionated Heparin (UFH) during Revascularization in Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS)FUTURA/OASIS 8
Trial overview
Number of participants with composite of major bleeding, minor bleeding, or major vascular access site complications during the peri-PCI period
Timeframe: Peri-PCI Period: occurred at randomization (from randomization to 48 hours after end of PCI procedure, typically 49 hours total)
Number of participants with composite of major bleeding during the peri-PCI period, with death, MI, or TVR at Day 30
Timeframe: Peri-PCI period for major bleeding (during the time from randomization up to 48 hours after the end of PCI [typically 49 hours total] ) and from randomization up to Day 30 for death, MI, or TVR
Number of participants with major bleeding during the peri-PCI period
Timeframe: Peri-PCI Period: occurred at randomization (from randomization to 48 hours after end of PCI procedure, typically 49 hours total)
Number of participants with minor bleeding during the peri-PCI period
Timeframe: Peri-PCI Period: occurred at randomization (from randomization to 48 hours after end of PCI procedure, typically 49 hours total)
Number of participants with major vascular access site complications during the peri-PCI period
Timeframe: Peri-PCI Period: occurred at randomization (from randomization to 48 hours after end of PCI procedure, typically 49 hours total)
Number of participants with major PCI-related procedural complications
Timeframe: During PCI procedure: immediately after randomization (approximately 10-75 minutes)
Number of participants with composite of death, MI or TVR during the peri-PCI period and at Day 30
Timeframe: Peri-PCI (during the time from randomization up to 48 hours after the end of PCI, typically 49 hours total) and from randomization up to Day 30
Number of participants experiencing death, MI, TVR, definite/probable stent thrombosis, or stroke, assessed separately during the peri-PCI period and at Day 30
Timeframe: Peri-PCI (during the time from randomization up to 48 hours after the end of PCI, typically 49 hours total) and from randomization up to Day 30

- Inclusion Criteria:
- The following are inclusion and exclusion criteria for enrollment in the study: Inclusion Criteria:
- Presenting or admitted to hospital with symptoms suspected to represent UA or NSTEMI, i.e., clinical history consistent with new onset, or a worsening pattern of, characteristic ischemic chest pain or ischemic symptoms occurring at rest or with minimal activity (lasting longer than 5 minutes or requiring sublingual nitro-glycerine for relief of the pain).
- Available to be enrolled within 48 hours of the onset of the most recent episode of symptoms.
- Planned coronary angiography, with PCI if indicated, within 72 hours of enrollment where possible.
- At least two of the three following additional criteria:
- Age greater than or equal to 60 years
- Troponin T or I or CK-MB above the upper limit of normal for the local institution;
- Electrocardiogram (ECG) changes compatible with ischemia, i.e., ST depression at least 1 mm in 2 contiguous leads or T wave inversion > 3 mm or any dynamic ST shift or transient ST elevation. -Written informed consent dated and signed Exclusion Criteria:
- Age < 21 years.
- Any contraindication to UFH or fondaparinux
- Contraindication for angiography or PCI at baseline
- Subjects requiring urgent (<120 minutes) coronary angiography as characterized by those with:
- refractory or recurrent angina associated with dynamic ST-deviation
- heart failure
- life-threatening arrhythmias
- hemodynamic instability
- Subjects already receiving treatment with enoxaparin (or other LMWH), bivalirudin or UFH for treatment of the qualifying events unless the last administered (intravenous(i.v.) or s.c.) dose was:
- ≥ 8 hours for low molecular weight heparin (LMWH)
- ≥60 minutes for bivalirudin
- ≥90 minutes for unfractionated heparin (UFH)
- Hemorrhagic stroke within the last 12 months.
- Indication for anti-coagulation other than acute coronary syndrome (ACS) during the index hospitalization.
- Pregnancy or women of childbearing potential who are not using an effective method of contraception. -Co-morbid condition with life expectancy less than 6 months.
- Currently receiving an experimental pharmacological agent.
- Revascularization procedure already performed for the qualifying event.
- Severe renal insufficiency (i.e., estimated creatinine clearance <20 ml/min) Following angiography and confirmation that the subject is to undergo PCI, the subject must also meet all of the following additional criteria in order to be randomised:
- Subjects will have received at least 1 dose of open-label fondaparinux
- The most recent dose of open-label fondaparinux will not have been more than 24 hours before the start of the PCI procedure.
