ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04750616
What this study is testing
What is Niacinamide?
Niacinamide is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for ischemia reperfusion injury.

- What it's testing
- A Randomized, Double-blind, placebo-controlled Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy of Oral Nam for the Prevention of Acute Kidney Injury in Patients Undergoing On-Pump Cardiac Surgery
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
