Using Henagliflozin to Reduce Heart Damage After Heart Attacks

Clinical Study on Reducing Myocardial Infarction Siez After Primary PCI in Patients With ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction by Using Henagliflozin

Phase 4 Interventional Chinese PLA General Hospital · NCT06187727

This study is testing if the medication Henagliflozin can help reduce heart damage and improve recovery in people who have just had a heart attack.

What this trial studies

This randomized controlled intervention involves 240 patients diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who are scheduled for emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Participants are divided into two groups: one receiving Henagliflozin orally for six months post-acute myocardial infarction and a control group. The study monitors dynamic changes in myocardial enzymes and assesses major cardiovascular events, including non-fatal myocardial infarction and hospitalization for heart failure, over a six-month follow-up period. The goal is to evaluate the effectiveness of Henagliflozin in reducing infarct size and improving left ventricular remodeling.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 80 who have experienced chest pain for less than 12 hours and are diagnosed with STEMI, planning to undergo primary PCI.

Not a fit: Patients with mechanical complications, cardiogenic shock, or other severe comorbidities may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this intervention could significantly reduce heart damage and improve recovery outcomes for patients after a heart attack.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise in using similar interventions for myocardial infarction, but this specific approach with Henagliflozin is relatively novel.
