A phase III, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effects of dalcetrapib on cardiovascular (CV) risk in a genetically defined population with a recent Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS): The DAL-302 (dal-GenE-2) trial
Status: Recruiting
This research study is testing whether a medication called dalcetrapib can help lower the risk of future heart attacks in people who were recently hospitalized for acute coronary syndrome and have a certain genetic profile. The study compares dalcetrapib to a placebo to see if personalized, genetics-based treatment can better prevent serious heart problems.
