A Randomized Trial to Investigate the Effects of Low‐Dose Colchicine in Patients with Hypertension: Rationale and Design of the COlchicine and HypERtENsion Trial (COHERENT)

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, Volume 28, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Hypertension is a prevalent and significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The immune system and inflammatory response are involved in the pathophysiology of hypertension. We hypothesize that treating hypertension with colchicine on top of standard therapy, will decrease pulse wave velocity (PWV), left ventricular mass, cardiac ...
