Sponsor's own description
Empagliflozin is a drug given to lower glucose. It is used in the treatment of diabetes. However, it was shown to improve symptoms and survival of patients who are suffering from heart failure. The exact mechanism of this effect is currently not clearly understood. He hypothesize that empagliflozin has other properties than glucose lowering, that can explain its efficacy. One of these properties, is an anti-inflammatory effect. To document this, we are using a model of inflammation following percutaneous coronary scenting. We know that patients who get a stent will develop inflammation following stenting. This is documenting by a higher level of C-Reactive Protein 24 hours after the procedure. Patients who will participate in the study, will receive empagliflozin or a placebo tablet for 3 days prior to the revascularisation procedure. CRP and other inflammatory markers will be measured before intervention and 24 hours later. The goal is to demonstrate a lower rise in CRP following intervention in patients treated with empagliflozin vs. those who have received a placebo.
