What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of cyclosporine coadministered with ezetimibe vs. cyclosporine administered alone.

    Measured: Blood sampling will be conducted for 48 hours starting with the first cyclosporine dosing.

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

Are results available for this study?

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 evaluate the safety and tolerability of cyclosporine coadministered with ezetimibe vs. cyclosporine administered alone. (time frame: Blood sampling will be conducted for 48 hours starting with the first cyclosporine dosing.). 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 NCT00653276, 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.
