Rationale and design of the EMBRACE STEMI Study: A phase 2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of intravenous Bendavia on reperfusion injury in patients treated with standard therapy inclu

EMBRACE-STEMI is testing the hypothesis that Bendavia, in conjunction with standard-of-care therapy, is superior to placebo for the reduction of myocardial infarction size among patients with first time, acute, anterior wall STEMI who undergo successful reperfusion with primary PCI and stenting.
