Current concepts of the pathophysiology of acute pancreatitis suggest that disease progression from acinar injury to systemic illness involves a complex interplay between cellular and soluble inflammatory mediators and endothelial beds. To date, there is no specific pharmacologic intervention for acute pancreatitis. Death from acute pancreatitis remains a major issue, and late deaths are often related to haemorrhage and are associated with unresolved intra-abdominal sepsis. Drotrecogin alfa, an analogue of endogenous protein C, has antithrombotic, anti-inflammatory and profibrinolytic properties, and it has been shown to reduce mortality in clinical sepsis. Modulation of the coagulation cascade, although probably essential to the mode of action of drotrecogin alfa, can lead to an increased risk of bleeding.
