Aprotinin may increase mortality in low and intermediate risk but not in high risk cardiac surgical patients compared to tranexamic acid and ε-aminocaproic acid -- a meta-analysis of randomised and observational trials of over 30.000 patients. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundTo compare the effect of aprotinin with the effect of lysine analogues (tranexamic acid and ε-aminocaproic acid) on early mortality in three subgroups of patients: low, intermediate and high risk of cardiac surgery.Methods and findingsWe ...

Safety of Perioperative Aprotinin Administration During Isolated Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery: Insights From the ART (Arterial Revascularization Trial) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
BackgroundThere is still uncertainty about the safety of aprotinin for coronary artery bypass graft surgery. The ART (Arterial Revascularization Trial) was designed to compare survival after bilateral versus single internal thoracic artery grafting. Many

Aprotinin revisited [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2012
In 2008, we saw the withdrawal of aprotinin from the US markets after preliminary results from a large, randomized clinical trial in Canada. This drug, a potent antifibrinolytic, was used primarily in complex and/or redo cardiac surgery as an adjunct to decrease postoperative bleeding and complications.

Inhibitory effects of aprotinin on influenza A and B viruses in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Influenza viruses cause significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Long-term or frequent use of approved anti-influenza agents has resulted in drug-resistant strains, thereby necessitating the discovery of new drugs. In this study, we found aprotinin,
