Conditions

Non ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction, ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Brief summary

The CLEAR SYNERGY trial will study the long term effects of treatments following PCI to treat myocardial infarction. These treatments address both the culprit artery (PCI with SYNERGY stent) as well as the non-culprit arteries (randomization to routine colchicine and spironolactone).

Detailed description

This is a multicenter, international SYNERGY stent registry that is embedded within a randomized, blinded, double-dummy, 2x2 factorial design trial of colchicine versus placebo and spironolactone versus placebo in patients with myocardial infarction who have undergone primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Interventions

DRUGColchicine

Colchicine 0.5 mg once daily

DRUGSpironolactone

Spironolactone 25 mg once daily

DEVICESYNERGY Bioabsorbable Polymer Drug-Eluting Stent

Trial participants who receive a SYNERGY™ Bioabsorbable Polymer Drug-Eluting (everolimus) Stent during their index PCI for STEMI will be included in the SYNERGY Stent Registry.

Matching Colchicine-placebo once daily

DRUGSpironolactone-Placebo

Matching Spironolactone-Placebo once daily
