About this study

Official title: Reload of High Dose Atorvastatin for Preventing Deep Vein Thrombosis in Statin Users Undergoing Total Knee Replacement Arthroplasty: RE-STOP-DVT Study- A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

Reload of high dose statin may have potential for preventing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients on statin undergoing total knee replacement arthroplasty.

A body of evidence have been reported that reloading of atorvastatin have efficacy in reducing periprocedural myocardial infarction and contrast induced nephropathy. These effects are considered to be mainly due to their antioxidant anti-thrombotic and anti-inflammatory property.

We, therefore, hypothesize that high dose atorvastatin re-loading may prevent DVT.

What participants receive

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

  • High dose Atorvastatin+enoxaparinDrug

    High dose atorvastatin 80mg/day for 7days after index surgery (total knee replacement arthroplasty, TKRA). At the same time Enoxaparin 40mg SQ/day 12hr before TKRA and from 1day to 7day after TKRA should be administered.

  • EnoxaparinDrug

    Enoxaparin 40mg SQ/day 12hr before TKRA and on day 1 to day7 after TKRA should be administered.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing High dose Atorvastatin+enoxaparin and Enoxaparin in people with Thrombosis and Prevention, run by Hallym University Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Feb 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Sang-Ho Jo, MD (82-31-380-3722, sophi5@medimail.co.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Development of deep vein thrombosis diagnosed and confirmed by CT angiography at lower extremities (time frame: 7days after index surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 5 Feb 2010.
