摘要:
A radiopharmaceutical capable of localizing at a site of thrombus containing activated platelets within a mammalian body is provided wherein the radiopharmaceutical comprises a linear peptidomimetic containing ligand capable of specifically binding to the GPIIb/IIIa integrin receptor of platelets in the thrombus and a radionuclide covalently bound to the peptidomimetic containing ligand. The ligand compositions of the invention are provided complexed with a selected metal radionuclide to form a diagnostic or therapeutic radiopharmaceutical to image a site of thrombus or provide radiotherapy to the site of thrombus, respectively. Methods of imaging a site of thrombus in a mammalian body by administering a diagnostically effective amount of the radiopharmaceutical composition of this invention complexed with a selected diagnostic metal radionuclide and methods of providing therapy to a site of thrombus in a mammalian body by administering a therapeutically effective amount of the radiopharmaceutical composition of this invention complexed with a selected therapeutic metal radionuclide are also provided as well as kits for preparing such radiopharmaceutical compositions.
摘要:
A method for determining the amount of an antiplatelet compound in a subject being treated with the compound which comprises calculating the ACT number of the subject's blood containing a reagent which immunoreacts with the antiplatelet compound and comparing the figure to a standardized concentration figure. In subjects concurrently being treated with heparin and antiplatelet compounds, the method can be practiced without additional heparin added to the blood sample. The invention also provides reagents which immunoreact with antiplatelet compounds and kits comprising immunoreactive reagents.
