MATERIALS AND METHODS: Randomised controlled trial was conducted on STEMI patients who undergo PCI in two hospitals in Jakarta, 104 patients enrolled to this study, and 77 patients completed the trial. 37 patients were randomly assigned to receive colchicines (2 mg loading dose; 0.5 mg thereafter every 12 hour for 48 hours) while 40 patients received placebo. NLRP3 level was measured from venous blood at baseline (BL), after procedure (AP), dan 24-hour post procedure (24H).

RESULTS: No NLRP3 difference was observed initially between colchicine arm and placebo arm 38,69 and 39,0138, respectively (p >0.05). Measurement conducted at 24H, patients received colchicine demonstrate reduction in NLRP3 level (37.67), while placebo arm results increase in NLRP3 level (42.89) despite not statistically significant (p >0,05).

METHODS: Seven (7) ASPECT members were approached to provide a harmonised anonymised dataset from their local registry. Patient characteristics were summarised and associations between the characteristics and in-hospital outcomes for STEMI patients were analysed.

RESULTS: Six (6) participating sites (86%) provided governance approvals for the collation of individual anonymised patient data from 2015 to 2017. Five (5) sites (83%) provided >90% of agreed data elements and 68% of the collated elements had <10% missingness. From the registry (n=12,620), 84% were male. The mean age was 59.2±12.3 years. The Malaysian cohort had a high prevalence of previous myocardial infarction (34%), almost twice that of any other sites (p<0.001). Adverse in-hospital outcomes were the lowest in Hong Kong whilst in-hospital mortality varied from 2.7% in Vietnam to 7.9% in Singapore.
