About this study

Official title: Comparative Physical and Chemical Study of the Mechanisms of Atherosclerosis With Development of Concept of Treatment and Prevention

Study the mechanisms of atherosclerosis based on a comparative study of physical and chemical properties of lipid tissues at various localization with subsequent development of concept of treatment and prevention.

Read the detailed description

The chemical and physical properties of different lipids of body. The clinical part of the work is a prospective randomized comparative controlled clinical trial of patients with atherosclerotic diseases.

Developed the concept of "limited biological resources" of the body based on the increase in the expenditure of energy reserves of the body, allowing a critical look at overweight.

The role of overweight in the development of atheromatous fat was revealed. The positive results from the weight loss in patients with atherosclerotic disease were drawn. Developed the metabolic concept of atherosclerosis associated with evolutionary aging and conversion of lipids in hard atherosclerotic fat.

What is being measured

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

  1. full recovery from atherosclerotic diseases

    Regression of atherosclerosis plaque in vessel: imaging methods (GE Vivid 7 Ultrasound; GE Healthcare Worldwide USA, Michigan), and computed tomography scans (AG Siemens Somatom Emotion 6, Germany, Muenchen).

    Improvement of clinical condition: by measurement of clinical presence status.

    Measured: for 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. normalised laboratory and instrumental data

    Weight loss: Tanita-SC330S Body Composition Analyzer (Tanita Corp., Tokyo, Japan) including weight (kg), body mass index (BMI, kg/m2), body composition parameters, including as fat mass (in % of total body weight and total kg), visceral fat rating (units), fat free mass (kg), total body water (in % and kg), muscle mass (in % and kg), bone mass (in % and kg), metabolic age (years), basal metabolic rate (kcal per day), and bioimpedance (Ohms).

    Rate of blood circulation: Dopler Ultrasound (GE Healthcare Worldwide USA, Michigan).

    Bone density: bone densitometry (Lunar Achilles Express Ultrasound; GE Healthcare USA, Madison).

    Imaging of internal organs and blood vessel diameter: computed tomography scans (AG Siemens Somatom Emotion 6, Germany, Muenchen).

    General clinical study of blood and urine, liver and kidneys function tests, glucose and lipids levels.

    Clinical condition in dynamics: clinical presence status.

    Measured: for 12 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Conventional treatment and Weight loss treatment in people with Myocardial Infarction and Coronary Artery Diseases, run by Nazarbayev University at 1 site in Kazakhstan.

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 6 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 4 Oct 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 Kazakhstan. 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?

full recovery from atherosclerotic diseases (time frame: for 12 months). 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 NCT01700075, 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 4 Oct 2012.
