Selected clinical studies targeting immune inflammatory pathways in myocardial infarction.

Trial Conditions Interventions Outcomes Ref.
ASSAIL-MI First-time STEMI Single dose of tocilizumab (IL-6R antibody) vs. placebo Improved myocardial salvage with tocilizumab NCT03004703
[125]
CLEAR-SYNERGY STEMI treated with primary PCI SYNERGY stent plus colchicine and spironolactone or placebo Ongoing NCT03048825
COVERT-MI First STEMI treated with primary PCI 5-day administration of colchicine vs. placebo Colchicine did not reduce infarct size NCT03156816
[120]
LILACS Stable CAD and ACS Low-dose aldesleukin (recombinant IL-2) This phase I/II trial showed safety and tolerability of aldesleukin NCT03113773
[128]
RITA-MI Acute anterior STEMI treated with primary PCI Single intravenous injection of rituximab (anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody) This phase I/IIa trial showed safety and tolerability of rituximab NCT03072199
[129]
VCUART3 Acute STEMI Anakinra (IL-1R antagonist) vs. placebo Anakinra significantly reduced systemic inflammatory response NCT01950299
[122]
VCUART4 Acute STEMI Anakinra (IL-1R antagonist) vs. placebo Not yet recruiting.
Planned to assess how well anakinra can protect participants from developing heart failure
