Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Multicenter, double blind, randomized trial to assess the effect of low-dose colchicine (0.5mg/day) on overall mortality, new coronary syndromes, and ischemic stroke at 2 years after an acute coronary syndrome. The study hypothesis is that colchicine may reduce the specified combined endpoint from 16% to 7-8% at a 2-years follow-up.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Multicenter, double-blind randomized trial to evaluate the efficacy of low dose colchicine (0.5mg once daily for 2 years) to reduce the incidence of subsequent overall mortality, new acute coronary syndromes, and ischemic stroke in patients admitted for an acute coronary syndrome.
