  • Title: [Effects of 2 single oral doses of mesoglycan on the coagulation-fibrinolysis system in man. A pharmacodynamic study].

    Abstract:
    In this study the profibrinolytic activity of two single oral doses of mesoglycan was evaluated. Furthermore, a mathematical model describing the patterns of the resulting phenomena was applied. Ten patients with impaired fibrinolytic system (euglobulin lysis time > 180 min) were enrolled in the study. In the morning following a 24 hour fast period, the patients were given orally a single dose (100 and 50 mg) of mesoglycan and placebo, with an interval of 48 hours between each treatment. The following parameters were evaluated at the time 0 and after 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours from each administration: tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) and its inhibitor PAI-1, euglobulin lysis time, plasminogen and alfa-2-antiplasmin as indexes of the fibrinolytic system; aPTT, TT, fibrinogen as indexes of the hemostatic-coagulative system. Mesoglycan showed a dose-dependent profibrinolytic activity, that was also present after placebo but in a less entity. The mathematical study confirms the experimental observations and thus may allow to describe, with a high degree of approximation, the in vivo pharmacology of mesoglycan through the use of the mathematical function.
