What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evaluate the efficacy of atorvastatin treatment during 3 months (80mg/day) on cerebral vasoreactivity (CVR) in lacunar patients. CVR, humeral and carotid vasoreactivity will be measured in all patients at M0 and M3.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluate the efficacy of atorvastatin treatment during 3 months (80mg/day) on endothelium dependant and independent vasomotoricity of humeral and / or common carotid artery (according to validation study) in lacunar patients.

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Atorvastatin in people with Cerebrovascular Accident and Hypercholesterolemia, run by Pfizer's Upjohn has merged with Mylan to form Viatris Inc. at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluate the efficacy of atorvastatin treatment during 3 months (80mg/day) on cerebral vasoreactivity (CVR) in lacunar patients. CVR, humeral and carotid vasoreactivity will be measured in all patients at M0 and M3.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00163150, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Feb 2021.
