Colchicine Versus Beta-blockers, Angiotensin-converting Enzyme Inhibitors, and Statins for Prevention of Chemotherapy-Induced Cardiomyopathy

Summary

BASiC-CIC Trial is a multicenter, double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to investigate whether repurposing colchicine or a combination of beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, and statins will be effective as a prophylactic treatment for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced cardiomyopathy, reduction of major adverse cardiovascular events, and all-cause mortality.
