NCT ID NCT07293832

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

Summary

This study looks at whether giving the beta-blocker landiolol early, during a heart attack, can reduce the amount of heart muscle that dies. It will follow 100 patients who get either landiolol or a standard oral beta-blocker, based on their doctor's choice. The main goal is to measure heart damage with an MRI three months later.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ€” not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
landiolol (a cardio-selective beta-blocker)
What this could lead to
If results are promising, it could suggest that early landiolol use helps limit heart muscle damage after a heart attack.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a randomized trial, so results may be influenced by patient differences. The study is small (100 people) and early, so findings may not be conclusive.
