Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in mitral regurgitation severity

    Incidence of more than mild MR (MRI regurgitant fraction ≥ 20%) at 3 months (measured by MRI)

    Baseline, 3 months

Secondary Outcomes (14)

  • Change in mitral leaflet size

    Baseline, 3 months

  • Change in mitral regurgitation grade

    Baseline, 3 months

  • Change in left ventricle size

    Baseline, 3 months

  • Change in left ventricle function

    Baseline, 3 months

  • Incidence of other valve regurgitation

    3 months

  • +9 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Cyproheptadine 4 Mg Oral Tablet

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive cyproheptadine 4mg tablet orally three times a day for three months, with a daily increase of 4mg/dose if the previous dose was well tolerated, up to 0.5 mg/kg/day.

Drug: Cyproheptadine 4 Mg Oral Tablet

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Participants will receive a matched placebo orally three times a day for 3 months. Daily titration similar to the treatment arm.

Other: Placebo

Interventions

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients 18-80 years old with a 1st episode of STEMI with documented coronary obstruction.
  • Left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF)\<50% and mitral tenting area ≥ 4 cm2, OR LVEF ≤ 40% and inferior/posterior wall motion anomaly, OR LVEF≤30% and wall motion in any territory.

You may not qualify if:

  • Inability to provide informed consent
  • Hemodynamic instability / cardiogenic shock / papillary muscle rupture
  • Prior mitral valve procedure/surgery
  • Permanent atrial fibrillation (limiting imaging and MR quantification)
  • Primary mitral disease (endocarditis, rheumatic, degenerative or congenital)
  • More than mild valvular disease (other than mitral) at baseline
  • Planned cardiac surgery (CABG or valve intervention) within 3 months
  • Contraindications for MRI
  • Ongoing treatment with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI)
  • Chronic use of sedative medication
  • Ongoing or planned pregnancy
  • Chronic renal failure with Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) \< 30 mL/min
  • Neurocognitive disorder
  • Symptom or prior episode of urinary obstruction or glaucoma (relative contraindications for cyproheptadine)
