1. GR32191B is a potent and selective thromboxane receptor antagonist. Glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) also inhibits platelet function in vitro. Both have been reported to prolong bleeding time. Since they may be used together in patients with coronary artery disease, we have investigated the possibility of an interaction between them. 2. Twenty-four healthy male volunteers were treated with GR32191B using a double-blind placebo-controlled crossover design. Bleeding times were determined before and after GR32191B or placebo and during co-administration of GTN. Plasma GR32191B concentration was measured. Platelet aggregation in response to adenosine diphosphate and to a thromboxane mimetic, U46619, was measured ex vivo. Urinary excretion of thromboxane (TX)B2 and 2,3-dinor-TXB2 was determined in 24 h urine samples. 3. Twelve hours after GR32191B (80 mg; p.o.), the plasma concentration was 36.6 +/- 2.7 nM (mean +/- s.e. mean) and bleeding time was increased by 66%. Ninety minutes after a second dose (40 mg; p.o.) the plasma concentration was 431.9 +/- 23.6 nM but bleeding time was not further prolonged. 4. Responses of platelets to U46619 were selectively antagonised following GR32191B. Urinary excretion rates of TXB2 and 2,3-dinor TXB2 were similar after treatment with GR32191B or placebo. 5. GTN (1 mg sub-lingually) had no significant effect on bleeding time 90-100 min following either placebo or GR32191B. 6. We conclude that GR32191B, in a dose that causes profound yet specific blockade of thromboxane receptors, causes only a modest prolongation of bleeding time that is unaffected by a therapeutic dose of GTN. This may prove advantageous when GR32191B is used in patients with ischaemic heart disease.
