Este hallazgo corresponde al primer informe que se hace de VALIANT, un estudio en el que han participado más de 5.500 pacientes hospitalizados en 85 centros de 9 países tras experimentar un infarto de miocardio. La presentación de estos datos tuvo lugar durante la Reunión Anual del American College of Cardiology (ACC) por parte del Dr. Eric J. Velázquez, de la Duke University (Estados Unidos).
VALIANT (VALsartan In Acute myocardial iNfarcTion) es el mayor estudio de supervivencia jamás realizado con un ARA II en pacientes que han experimentado un infarto de miocardio. En el estudio se incluyó a más de 14.500 pacientes procedentes de aproximadamente 950 centros clínicos de 24 países. Aunque los resultados finales se darán a conocer a finales de este año, tanto el registro VALIANT como los datos basales procedentes de la totalidad del ensayo ya están aportando conocimientos muy valiosos en cuanto al tratamiento de las personas que sufren ataques cardíacos.
