Trial summary

The primary purpose of the study was to evaluate 4000 subjects with acute coronary syndrome by comparing pravastatin 40 mg to atorvastatin 80 mg to determine if they are clinically equivalent, and to evaluate the effectiveness of gatifloxacin therapy in reducing cardiovascular events in combination with statin therapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. To demonstrate the clinical equivalence of pravastatin 40 mg and atorvastatin 80 mg in reducing death or major cardiovascular event after 2 years

  2. To demonstrate in subjects with ACS that Gatifloxacin is effective in reducing death or major cardiovascular event after 2 years, compared to placebo.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To compare the risk of nonfatal MI or coronary heart disease death between pravastatin and atorvastatin, and gatifloxacin and placebo.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing PRAVASTATIN SODIUM in people with Actue Coronary Syndromes, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb.

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 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Apr 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

To demonstrate the clinical equivalence of pravastatin 40 mg and atorvastatin 80 mg in reducing death or major cardiovascular event after 2 years. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00382460, which also lists 10 linked publications.

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 15 Apr 2011.
