Low-dose colchicine after heart bypass surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether taking a low dose of colchicine, an anti-inflammatory medicine, after heart bypass surgery can help keep the new blood vessels open and working well. It may help reduce the chance of the bypass grafts failing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must be within 3 days of having coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG).
- You must not need additional heart valve surgery.
- You must not have had cancer (other than skin cancer) in the last 3 years.
- You must not have inflammatory bowel disease or chronic diarrhea.

This trial tests whether a low dose of the anti-inflammatory drug colchicine can help people who have recently had a heart attack or unstable angina. It aims to see if colchicine reduces the risk of future heart problems.
This study tests whether a low dose of colchicine, an anti-inflammatory drug, can help prevent the graft (new blood vessel) from failing after heart bypass surgery. It's for people who just had a bypass and are still in the hospital.
This trial tests whether the drug colchicine can reduce inflammation after planned coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. It may help patients recover better by lowering inflammatory markers.
This study tests whether a low dose of the medicine colchicine can help prevent blood clots after a TAVR procedure, which replaces a narrowed heart valve. If you've recently had TAVR, taking colchicine might lower your risk of clots.
This study tests whether taking colchicine (a common anti-inflammatory medication) before and after bypass heart surgery can prevent atrial fibrillation—an irregular heartbeat that sometimes occurs after surgery. Researchers hope this simple treatment might reduce complications and improve recovery.
This trial tests whether taking colchicine around the time of surgery can reduce bad events after surgery in people at higher heart risk. It focuses on helping prevent complications related to inflammation after an operation.
