Effect of GLS-409 and vehicle control (saline) on coronary patency as measured by % flow-time area in a canine model of recurrent arterial thrombosis. % Flow-time area, quantified before and after treatment, in cohorts treated with saline (Control n = 3) and GLS-409 doses 1, 2 and 3. Dose 1: 0.054 mg/kg bolus + 0.00018 mg/kg/min infusion maintained for 2 hours (same bolus + 1/10 of the infused dose administered in the initial GLS-409 study, n = 3)12. Dose 2: 0.0054 mg/kg bolus + 0.00018 mg/kg/min infusion for 2 hours (1/10 of the bolus + 1/10 of the infused dose administered in the initial study, n = 5). Dose 3: 0.00054 mg/kg bolus + 0.000018 mg/kg/min infusion for 2 hours (1/100 of the bolus + 1/100 of the infused dose administered in the initial study: n = 5). Insert: for purposes of comparison, data from the current study are plotted together with results obtained previously with high-dose GLS-409 (0.054 mg/kg IV bolus followed by a continuous intravenous infusion of 0.0018 mg/kg/min) and matched (historical) controls12. Data are mean ± SEM, *p < 0.05 versus pretreatment and p < 0.05 versus controls.
