First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether giving a powerful cholesterol-lowering drug (recaticimab) early after a heart attack can safely reduce future heart problems. About 2,442 adults who recently had a heart attack will receive the drug or standard care. The goal is to see if this approach lowers cholesterol, controls inflammation, and prevents major heart events like another heart attack or stroke.
