Race to save hearts from cancer drug side effect

NCT ID NCT05335928

Recruiting now Disease control Sponsor: Massachusetts General Hospital Source: ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Summary

This study is testing whether a drug called abatacept can reduce serious heart complications in people who develop heart inflammation (myocarditis) as a side effect of immune-based cancer treatments. It will involve 390 hospitalized patients who are already receiving standard steroid treatment. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either abatacept or a placebo to see which is more effective at preventing major heart events.
