Trial summary

There are currently no studies evaluating the effect of anacetrapib on blood vessel function and stiffness of the arteries. The REVEAL-Vasc trial will assess whether anacetrapib, in addition to atorvastatin (LDL-C lowering drug) treatment, results in greater endothelial-dependent vascular function and aortic stiffness… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Cross-sectional REVEAL Sub-study Evaluating the Effect of Anacetrapib on Vascular Function and Arterial Stiffness [An Investigator Led Sub-study of HPS3/TIMI 55: REVEAL]

There are currently no studies evaluating the effect of anacetrapib on blood vessel function and stiffness of the arteries. The REVEAL-Vasc trial will assess whether anacetrapib, in addition to atorvastatin (LDL-C lowering drug) treatment, results in greater endothelial-dependent vascular function and aortic stiffness in patients with established cardiovascular disease, compared to adding placebo.

Participants will be asked to provide a blood sample and pulse Wave Velocity/Pulse Wave Analysis and Flow Mediated Dilation will be carried out to assess blood vessel function and stiffness of the arteries. REVEAL-Vasc is an investigator led sub-study of HPS3/TIMI 55: REVEAL (Randomized Evaluation of the Effects of Anacetrapib through Lipid modification): A large-scale, randomized placebo-controlled trial of the clinical effects of anacetrapib among people with established vascular disease (NCT01252953) which is coordinated by OXFORD CTSU.

No treatment will be received on this sub-study, therefore only participants who have been enrolled in HPS3/TIMI55 REVEAL in which participants received anacetrapib with atorvastatin or placebo will be considered for this trial.

Read the detailed description

REVEAL-Vasc is an investigator led sub-study of HPS3/TIMI 55: REVEAL. Participants who previously enrolled on HPS3/TIMI 55: REVEAL and received treatment will be invited to participate in this sub-study. Participants will attend a screening and an assessment visit during which Pulse Wave Velocity/ Pulse Wave Analysis and Flow Mediated Dilation will be carried out to assess blood vessel function and stiffness. A blood sample will also be taken from participant to assess CRP and lipid profile. Since participants will have received treatment on the main trial HPS3/TIMI 55: REVEAL, no treatment will be received on this sub-study.

What is being measured

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

  1. The effect of treatment on flow-mediated dilation (FMD)

    Measured by FMD as a surrogate measure of endothelial-dependent vasodilation

    Measured: Visits 0-1 (day 0 up to approximately day 28 depending on scheduling of visits)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The effect of treatment on aortic (carotid-to-femoral) Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV)

    Measured by PWV as a surrogate measure of aortic stiffness

    Measured: Visits 0-1 (day 0 up to approximately day 28 depending on scheduling of visits)

  2. The effect of treatment on central blood pressure

    As a measure of central haemodynamics

    Measured: Visits 0-1 (day 0 up to approximately day 28 depending on scheduling of visits)

  3. The effect of treatment on sublingual glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) response on artery dilation

    Measured by FMD as a surrogate measure of endothelial-independent vasodilation

    Measured: Visits 0-1 (day 0 up to approximately day 28 depending on scheduling of visits)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and Vascular Disease, run by Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 1 inclusion and 5 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 7 Feb 2024. 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 Kingdom. 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?

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?

The effect of treatment on flow-mediated dilation (FMD) (time frame: Visits 0-1 (day 0 up to approximately day 28 depending on scheduling of visits)). 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 7 Feb 2024.
