Common gout drug tested to shield heart nerves after attack

NCT ID NCT04420624

Summary

This study tested whether adding the anti-inflammatory drug colchicine to standard care could protect the heart's nervous system after a heart attack. It involved 54 patients who had a recent heart attack and received a stent. The goal was to see if this protection could lower the future risk of dangerous heart rhythms and heart failure. The trial was terminated early, so its final results are unknown.
