Grant Activity:
Colchicine After Stroke to Prevent Event Recurrence (CASPER) Study
Purpose:
Inflammation plays a critical role in the rupture of artery plaques, leading to acute stroke. Despite current best treatments, many people remain at high risk of recurrent stroke events, predominantly because current therapies do not specifically target the inflammatory component of arterial disease. This project investigates the ability of colchicine, a safe and commonly used anti-inflammatory drug, to inhibit vascular disease-associated inflammation, thereby improving clinical outcomes.
