ST ELEVATION MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

This study is observing patients who have a major type of heart attack (STEMI) to see how they do after being treated with a special drug-coated balloon instead of the standard metal stent. The goal is to collect real-world data on whether this balloon procedure is safe and works…

This study aims to find out if using a detailed imaging technique called OCT is better than standard angiography for guiding stent placement in people who have just had a major heart attack. Researchers will enroll 1,500 participants to see which method leads to fewer future hear…

This study is testing whether two different techniques during emergency heart attack treatment can improve patient outcomes. The first technique involves carefully controlling blood flow back to the heart after opening a blocked artery. The second uses ultrasound imaging during t…

This study is testing if a new drug called RTP-026 can help reduce heart muscle damage in people who have just had a major heart attack (STEMI). About 96 participants will receive either the drug or a placebo through three IV infusions shortly after their standard artery-opening …

This study is observing how well a special balloon works to treat blocked heart arteries. The balloon is coated with a medicine called sirolimus, which is meant to help keep the artery open after it's widened. Researchers are following over 1,100 patients with various types of co…

This study is testing whether a diabetes medication called dapagliflozin can help limit the amount of heart muscle damage in people who have just had a major heart attack (STEMI). The trial will enroll 256 patients who are undergoing emergency heart artery opening. Participants w…

This study is for people who have just had a major heart attack (STEMI) and received a stent to open a blocked artery. It is testing if a new type of stent, designed to help the artery heal faster, works well when patients take only one blood-thinner instead of the usual two. The…

This study is testing a new blood marker to detect active inflammation in the heart caused by sarcoidosis. It aims to provide a simpler and safer alternative to current complex scans. The research will involve 120 participants, including people with sarcoidosis, heart attack pati…

This study aims to understand which additional narrowed heart arteries are most likely to cause future problems in people who have just had a major heart attack. Researchers will use advanced heart scans and blood tests to examine 320 patients over several years. The goal is to c…

This study is collecting real-world information on 20,000 heart attack patients in London who were sent home early after a common artery-opening procedure. The goal is to understand how these patients fare after leaving the hospital, what medications they take, and their quality …
