Trial summary

Adverse reactions of simvastatin are mostly slight and transient, however, the incidence of simvastatin-induced hepatic impairment and myopathy are obviously higher in Chinese population than other racial groups. There is still lack of research data in Chinese. Read more about this study

About this study

Adverse reactions of simvastatin are mostly slight and transient, however, the incidence of simvastatin-induced hepatic impairment and myopathy are obviously higher in Chinese population than other racial groups. There is still lack of research data in Chinese. In this study, we will investigate whether there are specific genotypes which may predict the incidence of simvastatin-induced hepatic impairment and myopathy in Chinese so as to provide a basis for developing guidelines on precise medication in simvastatin therapy apply to Chinese population.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of hepatic impairment

    Measured: At 2 years

  2. Incidence of myopathy

    Measured: At 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Genotype detected by next generation sequencing

    Collect blood specimen before simvastatin administration, then detect genotype of simvastatin by next generation sequencing.

    Measured: pre-dose of simvastatin(Baseline)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Simvastatin Adverse Reaction and Pharmacogenomics, run by Cui Yimin at 1 site in China.

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 2 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 22 May 2018. 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 China. 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?

Contact Qian Xiang, Ph.D (+86 010 66110802, xiangqz@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of hepatic impairment (time frame: At 2 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 May 2018.
