Brief Summary:
This study will evaluate whether the anti-inflammatory effect of colchicine is beneficial in ACS patients

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Acute Coronary Syndrome STEMI Drug: Colchicine Tablets Phase 3

Detailed Description:
This study will evaluate the effect of colchicine on inflammation, cardiac remodeling, and atherosclerotic risk in STEMI patients through the assessment of the IL-1β, sST2, and lipid profile parameters as well as to examine the drug safety and tolerability in these patients.

    sST2 level in pg/ml is measured using ELISA method before PCI and after 3 months


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Effect of colchicine therapy on occurrence of ischemic events in ACS patients [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Effect of colchicine on the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) during the study period

  2. Change in left ventricular ejection fraction [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Effect of colchicine therapy on left ventricular ejection fraction percentage (%)

  3. Change in serum levels of IL-1beta [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Effect of colchicine therapy on the change in IL-1beta serum levels in pg/L

  4. Lipid profile parameters and TG/HDL-C ratio [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Effect of colchicine therapy on the change in lipid profile parameters and TG/HDL-C ratio
