Intravenous infusion administered adjunctively to primary PCI
Visually identical placebo infusion (Normal Saline 0.9% NaCl) of similar volume administered adjunctively to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Administered at four timepoints: emergency room (pre-PCI), 4 hours, 8 hours, and 12 hours post-primary PCI, identical in appearance, volume, and schedule to the investigational product.

Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF)
Global left ventricular systolic function expressed as a percentage, quantified by steady-state free-precession cine CMR
Time frame: 48-72 hours post-primary PCI
Intramyocardial Haemorrhage Burden (IMH %LV)
Volume of intramyocardial haemorrhage expressed as a percentage of total left ventricular myocardial mass, quantified by multi-echo T2\*-weighted gradient-echo CMR
Time frame: 48-72 hours post-primary PCI
Myocardial Infarct Size (Infarct %LV)
Infarct size expressed as a percentage of total left ventricular myocardial mass, quantified by phase-sensitive inversion-recovery late gadolinium enhancement CMR.
Time frame: 48-72 hours post-primary PCI
Microvascular Obstruction (MVO %LV)
MVO expressed as a percentage of total left ventricular myocardial mass, identified as a hypointense core region within the LGE-defined infarct zone on late gadolinium enhancement CMR.
Time frame: 48-72 hours post-primary PCI
