Abstract | BACKGROUND: STUDY DESIGN: The EMINENCE trial is a prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter phase 2 study that will evaluate the safety and feasibility of M118 as an anticoagulant versus unfractionated heparin in subjects with stable coronary artery disease undergoing PCI. The primary end point of the study will be the combined incidence of clinical events defined as the composite of 30-day death, myocardial infarction, repeat revascularization, catheter thrombus, stroke, thrombocytopenia, bailout use of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors, and major or minor bleeding. CONCLUSION: The EMINENCE trial will assess the safety and feasibility of M118 as an anticoagulant in the setting of PCI and will provide important information to determine the appropriate therapeutic range of activated clotting time for M118 and the appropriate dose or doses to be explored in a phase 3 clinical trial.
