Endpoints

Primary endpoints

  • {"endpoint_text":"- Primary endpoint will be the infarct size, as assessed by cardiac MRI performed at 3-month follow-up, in the two arms. The adjudication of the primary outcome will be performed by a centralized, completely blinded analysis. Infarct size will be measured as percentage of left ventricular mass. Gadobutrol at the dose of 0.15 mmol/Kg will be used as contrast agent, with late gadolinium enhancement starting at 15 min onward. 5-SD will be utilized as method for quantification of infarct size.","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Infarct size assessed by cardiac MRI at 3-month follow-up; measured as percentage of left ventricular mass; contrast agent gadobutrol 0.15 mmol/kg; late gadolinium enhancement from 15 minutes onward; 5-SD method for quantification; adjudication by centralized, completely blinded analysis."}

Secondary endpoints

  • {"endpoint_text":"- Clinical secondary outcomes: Time to occurrence of the composite outcome measure including cardiovascular death, worsening HF during index hospitalization or post-discharge HF requiring repeat hospitalization within 3 months. Occurrence of re-MI, stroke or unplanned coronary revascularization at 3 months. All-cause death at 3 months. Duration of in-hospital stay for the index event.
