Summary: This study will evaluate whether simvastatin reduces intraprostatic immunosuppressive microenvironment through YAP-mediated T-reg dysfunction, and increases intraprostatic anti-tumor immune response in men recently diagnosed with localized prostate cancer electing to receive prostatectomy for their care. Half the men will be randomized to receive statins for 8 weeks prior to their surgery, while t...

Summary: This study has the purpose to answer how the Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) level is distributed among Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) patients in Russia, and what is the connection between elevated levels of this parameter and the cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.

Summary: This is a proof-of-concept, Open label, randomized, multicentric, superiority phase-2 study.

Summary: The purpose of this pilot study to examine the feasibility and acceptability of simvastatin in adults with Recurrent Acute Pancreatitis (RAP) and Chronic Pancreatitis (CP).

Summary: The study aims to study the effect of simvastatin on the size of uterine fibroids.

Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of topical application of simvastatin in bone regeneration in the maxillae, in the reduction of dimensional bone changes, using mandibular third molar surgery as a model and assessing bone healing at 12 weeks. We will also compare the two forms of intralveolar topical administration currently used to assess which is the best form of admin...

Objectives: The primary objective is to assess the combined effects of carvedilol and simvastatin in managing CCM vs carvedilol alone for a composite outcome to prevent decompensation and reduce all-cause mortality. We will comprehensively evaluate cardiac function, decompensation events and survival based on impact of simvastatin over the standard betablocker carvedilol.

Summary: This early phase I trial tests whether letrozole with simvastatin works better than letrozole alone to stop tumor cell proliferation in patients with stage I-III hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative invasive breast cancer. Letrozole and simvastatin may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. The addition of simvastatin to letrozole may be more ef...

Summary: To test the hypothesis that intensive cholesterol lowering (iCL) therapy has anti-tumor immune modulating activity, the investigators will conduct an open-label, single-arm phase II trial in prostate cancer patients who are in active surveillance and undergoing a planned surveillance biopsy in 3-6 months. Eligible patients will initiate iCL with Vytorin®(group 1, 2, and 3), an FDA-approved combina...

Summary: Platinum based chemotherapy (mainly Cisplatin) is known to cause a variety of adverse effects, including Ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Ototoxicity is estimated to affect about 36% of adult patients treated with cisplatin, many therapeutic interventions have been studied to reduce the risk of developing ototoxicity from Cisplatin treatment, Statins have been studied in animals and have shown prom...

Summary: RADICAL PC1 is a prospective cohort study of men with a new diagnosis of prostate cancer. RADICAL PC2 is a randomized, controlled trial of a systematic approach to modifying cardiovascular and lifestyle risk factors in men with a new diagnosis of prostate cancer.

Summary: This phase II trial tests how well lovastatin and pembrolizumab work in treating patients with head and neck cancer that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Lovastatin is a drug used to lower the amount of cholesterol in the blood and may also cause tumor cell death. In addit...
