Scientific titleBAIL-OUT: 'Bail-out Anticoagulation in coronary Intervention TriaL - OUTcomes': a randomised comparison of the real world use of bivalirudin versus abciximab as a 'bail out' anticoagulant following heparin in percutaneous coronary intervention with focus on patient safety
Study acronymBAIL-OUT
Study objectivesNon-inferiority exists in terms of bleeding complication rates between bivalirudin and abciximab (ReoPro) when used as provisional (Bail-out) anticoagulants during Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI).
Ethics approval(s)Leicestershire, Northamptonshire and Rutland REC 1, 13/10/2006, ref: 06/Q2501/197
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedCoronary artery disease
InterventionProvisional bivalirudin versus provisional Abciximab following bolus heparin (65 u/kg) during PCI. The trial anticoagulant is given as per normal protocol, i.e., Bivalirudin bolus 0.75 mg/kg followed by infusion of 1.75 mg/kg/hr for duration of procedure only and Abciximab bolus and infusion for 12 hours.

Data collected from baseline, day of discharge post PCI and 30 days post PCI.
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhasePhase IV
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Bivalirudin, abciximab (ReoPro), heparin
Primary outcome measureMajor and minor bleeding complication rate
Secondary outcome measures1. Major Adverse Coronary Events (MACE)
2. Peri-procedural Troponin T level
Overall study start date01/11/2006
Completion date01/04/2008

Eligibility

Participant type(s)Patient
Age groupNot Specified
SexNot Specified
Target number of participants50 per group = 100 patients
Key inclusion criteriaPatients undergoing planned elective PCI at Leicester Glenfield Hospital without requirement for up-front GlycoProtein (GP) IIb IIIa after consent from patient and operator, randomised when Bail out situation is deemed to have occurred by the operator, which requires additional anticoagulation. There will be no limitation of concomitant therapy. All therapeutic regimens will be documented on the Case Report Form (CRF).

Indications for additional anticoagulation (and hence randomisation) will include but not be restricted to:
1. Abrupt or side-branch closure
2. Obstructive dissection
3. New or suspected thrombus
4. Impaired or slow coronary blood flow
5. Distal embolisation of thrombus
6. Persistent residual stenosis
7. Unplanned stent placement
8. Prolonged ischaemia
9. Other clinical instability or at discretion of the operator
Key exclusion criteria1. Any contra-indication to Bivalirudin or ReoPro as per product licence
2. Primary PCI for acute myocardial infarction
3. Uncontrolled sustained Blood Pressure (BP) more than 200/110 mmHg
4. Previous PCI within one month
5. Active bleeding, surgery, trauma or Gastro-Intestinal (GI) bleeding within 6/52
6. Serious intracranial pathology or previous bleed
7. Disseminated malignancy
8. Potential bleeding diathesis or other contra-indication to anticoagulation
9. Platelet count less than 100
10. Serum creatinine more than 350 or dialysis dependent
11. Abciximab within seven days, eptifibitide or tirofiban within 12 hours
12. Any other medical condition, or the presence of extreme age or general frailty which would lead operator to reduce dose or omit anticoagulants in normal practice
