New treatment option for STEMI (ST Elevation MI)
Official title Inhibition of Late Sodium Current (INa) to Prevent Coronary MICROvascular Dysfunction in Patients Presenting With ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction and Multivessel Disease: INaMICRON Study
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07380919
What this study is testing
What is Ranolazine?
Ranolazine is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for stemi (st elevation mi).
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a Phase IIb, multicentric, prospective, randomized (1:1 ratio), open label, and no profit study, with the aim of evaluating the efficacy of late INa current inhibition to improve coronary microcirculation in patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction and multivessel disease. All consecutive patients presenting with acute MI undergoing primary PCI (pPCI) on a major coronary artery, and with at least one remaining angiographically significant (% diameter stenosis \> 50%) non-culprit stenosis will be enrolled.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
