About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Stratified, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group Study of the Efficacy and Safety of the ACAT Inhibitor CS-505 for Reducing the Progression of Atherosclerosis in Subjects With Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia and Carotid Atherosclerosis Using Carotid Ultrasound (CUS)

The effects of pactimibe versus placebo on the progression of atherosclerosis in the carotid arteries will be assessed using standard ultrasound techniques.

Being tested
Pactimibe sulfate

What is being measured

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

  1. To demonstrate the effect of pactimibe versus placebo, when added to usual medical care, on the intima-media thickness (IMT) of the carotid arteries in subjects with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) and carotid atherosclerosis.

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. To assess the effects of pactimibe versus placebo, when added to usual medical care:

  2. - on the incidence and the time to first occurrence of

  3. cardiovascular events,

  4. - on inflammatory and oxidative markers, such as serum

  5. high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), plasma

  6. interleukin 6 (IL-6), plasma myeloperoxidase (MPO) and

  7. serum nitrotyrosine.

  8. To compare the safety of pactimibe versus placebo, when added to usual medical care, particularly with respect to the incidence of clincal and laboratory adverse events.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Pactimibe sulfate in people with Atherosclerosis and Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia, run by Daiichi Sankyo at 37 sites in 9 countries.

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 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 37 sites in Netherlands, United States, Canada, South Africa, Spain and 4 more countries. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 was stopped early. 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?

To demonstrate the effect of pactimibe versus placebo, when added to usual medical care, on the intima-media thickness (IMT) of the carotid arteries in subjects with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) and carotid atherosclerosis.. 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 NCT00151788, 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 18 Jan 2012.
