Targeting Vascular INflammation in Patients with Community-Acquired Pneumonia

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if icosapent ethyl (Vascepa) works to lessen the amount of inflammation in adults diagnosed with Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP). The main question it aims to answer is: What is the effect of taking Vascepa on inflammation in the arteries in patients with CAP? Researchers will compare the drug Vascepa to a placebo (a look-alike submstance that contains no drug) to see if Vascepa works to reduce inflammation in patients with CAP. Participants wil: * take Vacscepa or a placebo twice a day for 6 months * Visit the clinic 3 times (baseline, 30 days, and 6 months) for checkups and tests

TIN CAP is a multi centre, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the use of icosapent ethyl (Vascepa) on vascular inflammation in patients with CAP using FDG-PET/CT imaging and measurement of circulating biomarkers. The current proposal uses a randomized design to: 1. measure the effect of icosapent ethyl vs. placebo on reducing arterial inflammation over a 6-month treatment period, with primary analysis at 6-months; 2. the correlation between imaging and blood biomarkers over time relative to the drug response.
