Frequently asked questions about Colchicine

What is Colchicine used for in ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction?

Colchicine is an investigational small molecule being studied for use in ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). It is being evaluated in a Phase 3 clinical trial to determine its safety and efficacy in patients who have experienced this type of heart attack. The drug is not yet approved and remains in clinical development.

What does Colchicine target?

Colchicine is a small molecule that works by targeting inflammatory pathways. While the specific molecular target is not detailed, its mechanism involves reducing inflammation, which is relevant in the setting of myocardial infarction. The drug is being studied for its potential to improve outcomes in patients with ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction.

Who makes Colchicine?

Colchicine is being developed by Boston Scientific Corporation, a company publicly traded under the ticker symbol BSX. Boston Scientific is conducting a Phase 3 clinical trial to evaluate the drug for the treatment of ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction. The trial is sponsored and managed by the company.

What phase is Colchicine in?

Colchicine is currently in Phase 3 clinical development for ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. The Phase 3 trial, which is completed, enrolled 7,264 participants and was randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled.

What clinical trials is Colchicine in?

Colchicine is being studied in a Phase 3 clinical trial with the identifier NCT03048825, titled "Colchicine and Spironolactone in Patients with MI / SYNERGY Stent Registry." The trial has been completed and enrolled 7,264 patients with ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction and Non ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction across multiple countries.

Is Colchicine the same as any other drug?

Colchicine is a distinct drug and is not known to be the same as any other medication under a different name. It is being developed by Boston Scientific Corporation for the treatment of ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction. No alternative names have been associated with this drug in the context of this development program.
