Antioxidant treatment for first heart attack
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether combining antioxidant supplements with standard heart attack care can reduce heart muscle damage. It may help people who are getting emergency treatment for their first heart attack.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are having your first heart attack (a type called STEMI)
- Your symptoms started within the last 6 hours
- You are eligible for a procedure to open the blocked artery (called PCI)
- You do not have certain health conditions like severe heart failure, kidney disease, or liver disease

This trial tests whether patients who have had a heart attack with a specific type of artery blockage can be safely treated without placing a metal stent (tube) in their artery. Doctors will monitor whether the blockage stays open on its own.
This study uses advanced CT scans and blood tests to look at how the heart is damaged and recovers after a first heart attack. It may help doctors find better ways to treat heart attacks in the future.
This study uses advanced heart scans (MRI) before and after a common artery-opening procedure to see how the heart heals. It only includes people having their first heart attack who get emergency treatment with a stent.
This trial tests a heart medication (a cardio-selective beta-blocker) given during a heart attack to see if it reduces damage to the heart muscle. It might help people having their first heart attack who are treated quickly with angioplasty (a procedure to open blocked arteries).
This trial tests a new drug given shortly after a first heart attack to see if it can reduce heart damage when blood flow is restored. It is for patients having a specific type of heart attack (STEMI) and getting a procedure to open the blocked artery within 6 hours of symptoms starting.
This trial tests how well a heart MRI can be used soon after a first heart attack, especially when a blocked artery is opened quickly with angioplasty. It may help doctors better assess heart injury and guide care after an emergency heart event.
