Summary
The DAPA-STEMI trial investigates whether dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), reduces heart muscle scarring (fibrosis) and improves heart function after a ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The trial will use cardiac MRI to measure changes in heart structure and function over six months. Patients aged 30-85 who have had a recent STEMI will receive either dapagliflozin or a placebo. The study aims to provide mechanistic insights into heart failure prevention after heart attacks.
