Sponsor's own description

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, dose-titrating phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of firibastat administered orally BID (2 daily doses) versus ramipril administered orally BID over 12 weeks after acute anterior MI. Subjects will be followed for 12 weeks (over 4 study visits). A total of 294 male and female subjects with a diagnosis of first acute anterior MI will be randomized. The subjects will need to have a primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of the index MI related artery within 24 hours after MI.
