| NCT04181996 ↗ | Canadian Study of Arterial Inflammation in Patients With Diabetes and Vascular Events: EvaluatioN of Colchicine | Recruiting | Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) | Phase 3 | 2020-08-01 | Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death in the developed world. Atherosclerosis causes plaques in the blood vessels and is a common form of CVD. Inflammation is now recognized as a major cause of atherosclerosis. Therapies that target inflammation are being examined as a potential treatment option. Imaging to detect inflammation may be a solution to understand mechanisms and to optimize patient selection and outcomes for these drugs. Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET imaging can detect inflammation in the plaque and identify patients vulnerable to plaque rupture which cause events such as myocardial infarctions (MI) and strokes. The primary objective of this proposal(CADENCE) is to determine if the drug colchicine has an effect on plaque inflammation in patients at high risk for events (patients with diabetes or pre-diabetes and recent myocardial infarction, stroke or transient ischemic attacks (TIAs)). This mechanistic and proof-of-concept study will set the stage for future studies that will determine if inflammation imaging can be integrated into clinical practice to personalize decisions for anti-inflammation therapies. |

| NCT06130059 ↗ | Efficacy of LoDoCo in Improving Exercise Capacity Among Patients With HFpEF and Inflammation | Recruiting | University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center | Phase 2 | 2024-04-24 | The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness of low dose colchicine (LoDoCo) on measures of exercise capacity, physical function, frailty, and quality of life, among patients with heart failure with chronic stable preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and systemic inflammation. The use of LoDoCo in this study is considered investigational as it has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of exercise capacity in patients with HFpEF. Participants will undergo a 1-day screening that includes a blood draw and physical examination. If deemed eligible for the study, participants will undergo a baseline visit within 2 weeks of screening visit that includes physical examination, exercise testing, echocardiography and completion of quality-of-life surveys. Participants will also be randomized at this visit (randomly assigned to a group) to receive either LoDoCo or placebo (inactive substance) for 3 months. Participants will be called back at 3 months for repeat physical examination, blood draws, echocardiography, exercise testing and completion of quality-of-life surveys. Each visit will take about 3 hours. Total study duration is about 3 months. |
