In our pilot trial, a single ciclosporin bolus did not affect infarct size or left ventricular remodelling, matching the results from CYCLE and CIRCUS. Our study suggests that ciclosporin does either not reach ischaemic cardiomyocytes, or requires earlier application during first medical contact. Finally, 1 bolus of ciclosporin is not sufficient to inhibit CD4 T-lymphocyte proliferation during remodelling. We therefore believe that further studies are warranted.
