Could a simple inhaler shield your heart during stent surgery?
NCT ID NCT07397351
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests an inhaled medicine called Aroxxen to see if it can reduce heart damage during and after a common procedure to open blocked heart arteries (stent placement). About 180 adults with coronary artery disease will receive either Aroxxen or standard care. Researchers will measure heart injury markers in the blood to find the best dose and duration of treatment.
