1. HF requiring hospitalization and IV diuretics within 12 months of study entry, or
2. NTproBNP \> or = 150pg/ml in sinus rhythm or NTproBNP \> or = 450pg/ml in chronic atrial fibrillation,
3. New York Heart Association Class, NYHA functional class II to (ambulatory) IV,
4. Evidence of pathological systemic inflammation: high C-reactive protein, hs-CRP levels (hs-CRP \> or = 5mg/L),

5. Known or clinically judged significant (i.e., angina with CCS (Canadian Cardiovascular Society) class \> 2/4) epicardial coronary artery disease (CAD) that has not been revascularized (revascularized CAD is defined by a history of myocardial infarction, percutaneous intervention, or coronary artery bypass grafting),
6. History of hypersensitivity to colchicine,

10. Patient with pre-existent progressive neuromuscular disease,

12. Patients under long-term steroid medication for a chronic condition,
13. Contraindication to dipyridamole-containing medication, acute myocardial infarction or unstable angina in the past 48h,
14. Positive pregnancy test results at the screening visit, and females of childbearing potential who do not agree to use adequate methods of contraception for the duration of the study; acceptable means of birth control include: implantable contraceptives, injectable contraceptives, oral contraceptives, transdermal contraceptives, intrauterine devices, male or female condoms with spermicide, abstinence, or a sterile sexual partner,
