Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim
67 words
A method for dissolving and preventing reformation of an occluding thrombus precipated by rupture of and atheorosclerotic plaque in a mammal in need thereof comprising, adminstering to said mammal a tissue factor protein antagonist which neutralizes the procoagulant activity of tissue factor in an amount effective to prevent the reformation of the occluding thrombus and a thrombolytic agent in an amount effective to dissolve the occluding thrombus.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
67 words
A method for dissolving and preventing reformation of an occluding thrombus precipated by rupture of and atheorosclerotic plaque in a mammal in need thereof comprising, adminstering to said mammal a tissue factor protein antagonist which neutralizes the procoagulant activity of tissue factor in an amount effective to prevent the reformation of the occluding thrombus and a thrombolytic agent in an amount effective to dissolve the occluding thrombus.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said throbolytic agent is selected from the group consisting of streptokinase, urokinase, prourokinase and tissue-type plasminogen activator.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
13 words
The method of claim 2 wherein said thromolytic agent is tissue-type plasminogen activator.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
51 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the tissue factor protein antagonist is given at a dose of about in the range of 0.01-25.0 mg per kg of patient weight and the thrombolytic agent is given at a dose of about in the range of 0.01-2.5 mg per kg of patient weight.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
12 words

Dependent Claim
12 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the adminstration by the intraveous infusion.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
30 words
The method according to claim 5 wherein the mammal is administered a first bolus containing the tissue factor protein antagonist and subsequently administered a second bolus containing the thrombolytic agent.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
30 words
The method according to claim 5 wherein the patient is administered a first bolus containing the thrombolytic agent and subsequently administered a second bolus containing the tissue factor protein antagonist.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
16 words
The method according to claim 7 in which the tissue factor protein antagonist is an antibody.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
14 words
The method according to claim 9 in which the antibody is a polyclonal antibody.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
14 words
The method according to claim 9 in which the antibody is a monoclonal antibody.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
13 words
The method according to claim 10 in which the mammal is a human.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
16 words
The method according to claim 8 in which the tissue factor protein antagonist is an antibody.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
13 words
The method according to claim 11 in which the mammal is a human.
