About this study

Official title: Determining Cardiovascular Health Using a Multi-Analyte Profile in a Longitudinal Study of a Statin Intervention for Dyslipidemia

The primary objective of this study is to determine any changes in cardiovascular risk among individuals receiving a statin by assessing their multi-analyte profile.

Read the detailed description

Over the past decade there has been a growing debate about the clinical value content of a single individual diagnostic indicator of disease onset, progression or therapeutic intervention. In particular there has been a discussion about the comparative value of a single biomarker versus a panel (3-6 different analytes) versus a multi-analyte profile (>10 different analytes) of biomarkers to provide high content clinical information about a specific disease onset, progression, remediation or treatment efficacy.

With the advent of personalized medicine, and recognition of the high degree of biological variability in human pathobiology, it is important to understand the comparative value of a single biomarker/diagnostic versus a panel versus a profile. In addition, the growth of Preventive Medicine has spurred the development of "Wellness" in individual patients, and the necessity for understanding and measuring the transition from a state of health (wellness) to ultimately a state of full blown disease onset. This complex process occurs via a multitude of biological pathways and networks and manifests at a biochemical and clinical systems level.

In a previous study currently being analyzed, MaiHealth measured a Multi-Analyte Profile of approximately 800 patients consisting of 400 cardiovascular compromised individuals and 400 control patients. This preliminary study was a single time point only, in which 25 individual analytes were measured as well as 3 calculated ratios or values for the 800 individuals.

The current study is a small cohort time course study over 6 months involving therapeutic intervention with an FDA-approved statin.

The overall goal of the study is to determine the predictive capability of a single versus panel versus multi-analyte profile set of biomarkers in cardiovascular compromised patients with therapeutic intervention. The ultimate application of this research is information delivery and behavioral intervention.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of 29 specific cardiovascular related lab assays from baseline through a period of 6 months in a control population with dyslipidemia vs a study group with dyslipidemia receiving an FDA approved Statin (Pravastatin).

    Comparative, predictive capability of a single versus panel versus multi-analyte profile for improvement in cardiovascular health as a function of therapeutic intervention over time. Comparative analyses will be performed against the control profile to track blood chemistry changes as a result of intervention.

    Measured: 6-month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Limited time-course of different stages of disease regression

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pravastatin in people with Dyslipidemia, run by MaiHealth Inc at 1 site in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 3 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 16 Apr 2012. 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 United States. 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.

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?

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?

Comparison of 29 specific cardiovascular related lab assays from baseline through a period of 6 months in a control population with dyslipidemia vs a study group with dyslipidemia receiving an FDA approved Statin (Pravastatin). (time frame: 6-month). 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 16 Apr 2012.
