The APRICOT-3 will be the first randomized trial in the current era of improved angioplasty techniques to study the question of whether a routine invasive strategy after successful thrombolysis can reduce the incidence of reocclusion and subsequently improve clinical outcome and LV-function. After successful thrombolysis, patients will be randomized to either a routine invasive strategy or an ischemia-guided strategy. The investigators expect to demonstrate a lower reocclusion rate at the 6-month follow-up angiography (primary endpoint) and fewer associated events (death, reinfarction, revascularization, admissions for heart failure) in the routine invasive arm. In search of non-invasive parameters predictive of reocclusion, laboratory analysis of several coagulation and inflammatory markers will be performed. Finally, pooled analysis of all 3 APRICOT trials will focus on the identification of clinical predictors of reocclusion that can easily be obtained by history and physical examination.
