Novartis tests pill to calm heart disease inflammation

NCT ID NCT06031844

Summary

This study tested whether a new daily pill called DFV890 could safely reduce specific markers of inflammation in the blood of people with coronary heart disease. About 24 adults who had a prior heart attack and high inflammation levels took either the drug or a placebo for 12 weeks. The main goal was to see how well the drug lowered inflammation markers like IL-6 and IL-18, which are linked to heart disease risk.
