Pivotal Trial
Summary
This trial will test if SGLT2i can help reduce infarct size in patients having a heart attack & referred for PPCI. Cardiac MRI will measure the effect.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients who have had a severe type of heart attack known as STEMI and are going to undergo primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). The specific details about who can join or must avoid the trial aren't provided here.
What is being tested?
The study is testing if a diabetes medication called Dapagliflozin can reduce the damage to the heart muscle in patients with STEMI. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Dapagliflozin or a placebo, alongside their standard treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
While not specified here, common side effects of Dapagliflozin may include yeast infections, urinary tract infections, increased urination, and potential risk of dehydration.
