Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Related to colchicine use: known intolerance, previous use for another condition (e.g., gout), severe liver disease (e.g., severe liver disease).

Other illness

  • ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (undergoing emergency angioplasty therefore not allowing time for the administration and effect of colchicine).
  • Any other disease that limits life expectancy to \<1 year.
  • Medical history of a disorder that could, in the opinion of the treating physician, place the participant at significant risk if they were to participate in the trial.

Lab values

  • Advanced heart failure, left ventricular ejection fraction \<35%.
  • Severe liver disease (transaminase elevation 3 times above normal), blood dyscrasia (leukocyte or platelet count lower than normal), glomerular filtration rate (MDRD), use of CYP3A4 or calcineurin inhibitors, active autoimmune disease or the use of chronic anti-inflammatory therapy, concomitant infection, pregnancy or concomitant infection, pregnancy or lactation.

Other

  • Severe left main stenosis.

Who the study is looking for

  • Age ≥18 years.
  • Adults hospitalized at the Clinical Hospital of the Catholic University for an ACS condition, defined as:
    • \- Presence of chest pain, associated with enzymatic elevation (increase of ultrasensitive troponin above normal value (99th percentile)) with or without electrocardiographic changes.
  • Patients undergoing coronary angiography with the intention of angioplasty in the next few days (during the index hospitalization).
  • Ability and willingness to provide written informed consent.

Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
