Conditions
Acute Coronary Syndrome
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00997750
Lead Sponsor
Central Clinical Hospital w/Outpatient Health Center of Business Administration for the President of Russian Federation
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug lornoxicam in combination with low dose aspirin (100mg/day) is effective and safe in patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome without persistent ST-segment elevation.

Detailed Description

Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the most frequently prescribed drugs in the world. There are a lot of controversial information published during recent years about NSAID cardiosafety. It is still unclear do NSAIDs develop cardioprotective or cardiotoxic effects in acute and chronic heart disease patients. Aim of the study was to investigate safety and efficacy of Lornoxicam, nonselective COX-inhibitor, in patients with acute coronary syndrome without ST-segment elevation (NSTEACS) and to evaluate the influence of Lornoxicam on C-reactive protein (CRP) and IL-6, IL-10 levels.
