Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Active inflammation plays a key role in causing Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD). Since inflammation is so important in how these diseases start, are diagnosed, and treated, being able to see it clearly in each patient could lead to more personalized and effective care - and may help prevent heart attacks. Right now, there's no imaging technology available to clearly see inflammation inside the coronary arteries. The investigators hope to learn how an imaging drug; called LUMISIGHT (Pegulicianine) can help detect inflammation in blood vessels compared with saline. If the investigators find out that LUMISIGHT is active in humans, the investigators might be able to use it for detecting plaque risk in the future.
