Prolonged Clinical Follow-up of OPTIMA-5

February 22, 2024 updated by: Chunjian Li, The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University

A Single Bolus r-SAK Prior to Primary PCI for ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (OPTIMA-5): 1-Year Follow-up

The OPTIMA-5 trial is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, patient blinded, controlled trial comparing a single bolus of half-dose recombinant staphylokinase (r-SAK) with normal saline (NS) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) presenting ≤12 hours of symptom onset and expected to undergo primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) within 120 minutes. The results of OPTIMA-5 showed that a single bolus r-SAK prior to PPCI for STEMI improves infarct related artery (IRA) patency and reduces infarct size without increasing major bleeding. On this basis, this study was designed to investigate the effect of the novel reperfusion strategy on 1-year outcomes of patients with STEMI.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the leading causes of death all over the world, and accounted for more than 100 thousand deaths in the US in 2019. Early PPCI reduces mortality in patients with STEMI. If PPCI cannot be performed within 120 minutes of presentation, guidelines recommend the use of thrombolytic therapy. However, it remains uncertain whether adjunctive thrombolytic therapy administered immediately prior to PPCI improves outcomes in patients undergoing the procedure within 120 minutes.

SAK is a fibrin specific fibrinolytic agent produced by Staphylococcus aureus that was first discovered in 1948. A recombinant form of SAK was approved by China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) for treatment of patients with STEMI. It has been demonstrated that r-SAK is more potent than urokinase and recombinant streptokinase in rabbit models.

The OPTIMA-5 trial is an investigator-initiated, prospective, multi-center, randomized, patient blinded, controlled trial comparing a single bolus of half-dose r-SAK with NS in patients with STEMI presenting ≤12 hours of symptom onset and expected to undergo PPCI within 120 minutes. Between October 29, 2021 and August 14, 2022, 283 STEMI patients were screened in 8 centers in China and 200 were randomized to r-SAK group or control in a 1:1 ratio using a computer-generated randomization sequence.

On this basis, this study was aimed to conduct a 1-year follow-up study to further confirm the efficacy and safety of this novel reperfusion strategy for patients with STEMI.
