Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
This prospective Investigator Initiated Trial (IIT) study, multicenter, single arm, open-label study aims to evaluate Cardiac MRI-guided Deferiprone therapy for acute myocardial infarction (MI) patients. The study will commence at each site following Ethics Committee (EC) approval. 30 Newly diagnosed STEMI patients who have recently undergone PCI will be approached for the screening procedure. Written informed consent will be obtained before any study-related procedures by the clinical site team are performed. 

This study will be conducted in compliance with the Protocol, Good Clinical Practice (GCP) as set forth in the International Council for Harmonization (ICH) guidelines on GCP (ICH E6 (R3)) and applicable local regulatory requirements
