An additional injection of cyclodextrin or poloxamer was given at another site to investigate whether the vehicle itself had any additional effect. All injections were given 30 min before induction of thrombus formation. Thrombus formation was induced by ferric chloride, together with stenosis of the caval vein, during a short period of inhalation anaesthesia. Five hours later the thrombi were harvested and their wet weight determined. Thrombus size was comparable across the vehicle\u2010only groups. The antithrombotic effects of melagatran in saline or poloxamer were comparable while melagatran in cyclodextrin was less effective. The effects of melagatran in saline, cyclodextrin or poloxamer were not enhanced by additional cyclodextrin or poloxamer. Thrombin time (TT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) at the end of the experiment were prolonged to a greater extent in the groups receiving melagatran in cyclodextrin or poloxamer compared with those receiving melagatran in saline.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>\u2014In this vena cava thrombosis model, no enhanced antithrombotic effect was observed with melagatran given as a s.c. depot formulation in cyclodextrin or poloxamer compared with that in saline.
