Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Must have clinical symptoms consistent with AMI (e.g., angina or anginal equivalent)lasting \>20 minutes but \<12 hours in duration;
* ST-segment elevation of \>1 mm in \>2 contiguous leads, or (presumably new) left bundle branch block, or true posterior MI with ST depression of \>1 mm in \>2 contiguous anterior leads;
* The patient or guardian agrees to the study protocol and the schedule of clinical and angiographic follow-up, and provides informed, written consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
* The patient has a known hypersensitivity or contraindication to any of the following medications:
* Heparin, pork or pork products
* Both abciximab and eptifibatide
* Aspirin
* Both Clopidogrel and Ticlopidine
* Bivalirudin
* Paclitaxel or Taxol
* The polymer components of the TAXUS™ stent (SIBS)
* Stainless steel and/or
* Contrast media;
* Prior administration of thrombolytic therapy, bivalirudin, GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors, low molecular weight heparin or fondaparinux for this admission. Patients receiving prior unfractionated heparin may be enrolled, and treated per randomization;
* Current use of coumadin;
* Systemic (intravenous) Paclitaxel or Taxol use within 12 months;
* Female of childbearing potential, unless a recent pregnancy test is negative, who possibly plans to become pregnant any time after enrollment into this study;
* History of bleeding diathesis or known coagulopathy (including heparin-induced thrombocytopenia), or will refuse blood transfusions;
* History of intra-cerebral mass, aneurysm, arteriovenous malformation, or hemorrhagic stroke;
* Stroke or transient ischemic attack within the past 6 months, or any permanent residual neurologic defect;
* Gastrointestinal or genitourinary bleeding within the last 2 months, or major surgery within six weeks;
* Recent history or known current platelet count \<100,000 cells/mm3 or Hgb \<10 g/dL;
* Extensive peripheral vascular disease, such that emergent angiography and intervention in the opinion of the investigator is likely to be difficult or complicated;
* An elective surgical procedure is planned that would necessitate interruption of thienopyridines during the first six months post enrollment;
* Non-cardiac co-morbid conditions are present with life expectancy \<1 year or that may result in protocol non-compliance;
* Patients who are actively participating in another drug or device investigational study, which have not completed the primary endpoint follow-up period;
* Previous enrollment in this trial;
* Patients who underwent coronary stent implantation within the past 30 days.
