Methods for targeting and prolonging association of a selected drug to the
luminal surface of pulmonary vascular endothelium of an animal are
provided wherein a selected drug is administered to an animal in
combination with a non-internalizable ICAM-1 antibody which binds to an
antigen on the luminal surface of the pulmonary vasculature. This method
is particularly useful in dissolution of fibrin clots or prevention of
the intravascular coagulation in the pulmonary vasculature.
