Clinical Trial: Multimodal Biomarkers in Coronary Artery Disease Pathogenesis: The Oxford Acute Myocardial Infarction Study (OXAMI Study)

U.S., Aug. 20 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07772570) titled 'Multimodal Biomarkers in Coronary Artery Disease Pathogenesis: The Oxford Acute Myocardial Infarction Study (OXAMI Study)' on Aug. 14.
