Scope: KYNETIC-Liposomal azithromycin to reduce cardiac inflammation”

Grants and Contracts Details

Description

Inflammation is a major cause of secondary injury after a heart attack that results in poor patient prognosis. Uncontrolled inflammation can cause a buildup of scar tissue and thickening of blood vessel walls. Many therapies given after a heart attack (myocardial infarction (MI)), are used to restore blood flow and prevent clotting, but none are designed to target inflammation. There is a need for a potent medication that can be used to limit cardiac inflammatory damage.
