Abstract: | Pharmacokinetics of fibrin degradation products (FbDP), D-dimers, fibrinogen degradation products (FgDP) and total degradation products (TDP) in plasma were investigated using ELISA methods in 12 patients undergoing therapy with alteplase (100 mg/3 h) for acute myocardial infarction. Peak concentrations of all degradation products occurred significantly later (1.6–2.5 h) than peak alteplase levels (2 min). Peak D-dimer concentrations (mean 2.6 μg/ml) were significantly lower than those of FbDP (7.1 μg/ml) or FgDP (7.8 μg/ml). However, the half-life of D-dimers (mean 13.3 h) was more than 4.5-fold longer than that of FbDP (2.9 h) or FgDP (2.8 h) (p<0.001). Consequently, areas under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of D-dimers were comparable with those of FbDP or FgDP The ratios AUC(FbDP)/AUC(FgDP) and AUC(D-dimers)/AUC(FgDP) are proposed as new indices of fibrin specificity. Their values in this study (geometric mean, 95% CI) were 1.15 (0.60–2.20) and 1.30 (0.52–3.24) respectively. It is concluded that cross-linking may prolong the half-life of fibrin degradation products, and that complete time profiles of fibrin- and fibrinogen degradation products in plasma, rather than single point measurements, are essential for reliable quantification of fibrin specificity. |
