The Effect of Colchicine on Platelet Function Profiles in Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease (ECLIPSE)

August 5, 2025 updated by: Naveen Seecheran, The University of The West Indies

The Effect of Colchicine on Platelet Function Profiles in Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease in Trinidad and Tobago. The Pilot ECLIPSE Study.

The effects of colchicine on cardiovascular health in patients with stable coronary artery disease have been shown to be beneficial due to its anti-inflammatory properties. This present study aims to explore the effects of colchicine on platelet reactivity in patients with coronary artery disease on dual antiplatelet therapy.

Detailed Description

Recent landmark clinical trials on the use of colchicine in patients with chronic coronary artery disease has led to its implementation as an FDA approved drug for secondary prevention in patients with coronary artery disease. Colchicine exerts a range of anti inflammatory effects which plays a major role in reduction of atherosclerosis and prevention cardiovascular events. This current study aims to investigate the effect of colchicine on platelet reactivity in patients with stable coronary artery disease already on dual anticoagulants.
