Could a cheap, old drug ease the struggle of heart failure?

NCT ID NCT06130059

Summary

This study is testing if a low dose of an anti-inflammatory drug called colchicine can help people with a specific type of chronic heart failure (HFpEF) who also have body-wide inflammation. For 3 months, 60 participants will take either the drug or a placebo pill to see if it improves how far they can walk, their exercise capacity, and their quality of life. The goal is to see if reducing inflammation can make daily physical activities easier for these patients.
