Brief Summary

ABYSS is a national, multicenter, randomised, open label trial using the PROBE study design, that will evaluate the non-inferiority of the interruption of ΒB therapy after an uncomplicated MI after six months or more of follow-up compared to the continuation of βB evaluated by the primary endpoint or death, MI, Stroke and rehospitalization for others cardiovascular reasons.

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

1850 post-MI patients treated with chronic βB treatment will be continued under their usual βB treatment without modification.

Drug: Continuation of the Betablockers (βB) treatment

Interventions

Discontinuation of the Betablockers (βB)

Use Betablockers treatment

Continuation of the Betablockers (βB)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subjects meeting all of the following criteria will be considered for enrolment into the study:
  • Male or female +/=18 years of age
  • Current treatment with βB whatever the drug or the dose used
  • Prior acute myocardial infarction 6 months or more before randomisation defined either by:
  • AβYSS protocol, version 3.0 of 25/05/2021 Page 32 / 65
  • An episode of ST elevation MI with ST segment elevation (STEMI) and/or the presence of Q wave (Type I MI)
  • an episode of Non ST Elevation MI (NSTEMI) with preferably at least one of the followings:
  • i) a documented hypokinetic or akinetic segment on echo or any other imaging technique
  • ii) segmental hypoperfusion Thallium or any other imaging technique
  • iii) segmental aspect of necrosis on MRI
  • An episode of silent MI discovered on ECG or Cardiac Imaging. Importantly = The mention of an MI on a report is enough to be considered as a prior MI and it is not necessary to retrieve the source document and/or documentation of this prior MI .
  • Patient affiliated to Social Security
  • Informed consent obtained in writing at enrolment into the study

You may not qualify if:

  • Subjects presenting with any of the following will not be included in the study:
  • Uncontrolled arterial hypertension according to investigator decision
  • Prior episode of heart failure in the past two years of follow-up and/or low left ventricular ejection fraction \<40% requiring the use of βB;
  • New ACS (in the past 6 months) including UA/NSTEMI and STEMI;
  • Persistent angina or ischemia (\>10% viable myocardium) requiring the use of βB;
  • Prior episode of ventricular or supraventricular arrhythmia in the past year of follow-up requiring the use of ΒB;
  • Treatment with other investigational agents or devices within the previous 30 days, or previous enrolment in this trial.
  • Pregnant Women or breast feeding women
  • Patient under legal protection (protection of the court, or in curatorship or guardianship).
