We investigated the ability of various antithrombotic drugs, delivered locally, to prevent restenosis after angioplasty in hypercholesterolemic rabbits. After dilating atherosclerotic iliac stenoses by balloon angioplasty, a low dose of heparin or a new antithrombotic drug, such as low molecular weight heparin (fragmin), argatroban, or batroxobin, was delivered locally using the balloon double-occlusion technique. In 1 group, high-dose heparin was administered intravenously. Animals that received no drugs served as a control group. After angioplasty, the stenotic segment was dilated and the mean percentage luminal stenosis fell from 89% to 9% in the group that received locally delivered heparin, from 88% to 7% in the group that received locally delivered argatroban, from 87% to 11% in the group that received locally delivered fragmin, from 88% to 15% in the group that received locally delivered batroxobin, from 82% to 18% in the group that received iv heparin (p<0.0001 compared with before angioplasty in each case), and from 84% to 17% in the control group (p<0.005 compared with before angioplasty). Twenty-eight days after angioplasty, the percentage luminal stenosis remained at 14% in the group that received locally delivered argatroban, 15% in the group that received locally delivered fragmin, and 28% in the group that received locally delivered batroxobin, whereas it increased to 45% in the group that received iv heparin, 30% in the group that received locally delivered heparin and 72% in the control group (p<0.05 compared with after angioplasty in each case). Thus, Iocal delivery low doses of new antithrombotic drugs prevents restenosis after angioplasty without affecting systemic coagulability; heparin, whether administered locally or intravenously, was less effective than the new drugs in preventing restenosis.
