Summary: Data on the real-world use and effectiveness and safety of bempedoic acid combined with both a statin and ezetimibe in clinical practice is limited. There is an increased focus on using combination therapy to lower LDL-C.

Summary: Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness associated with significant morbidity and disability. Patients often experience metabolic side effects from antipsychotic medications, including weight gain and dyslipidemia. Statins, commonly used to manage dyslipidemia, can lower cholesterol levels but may increase the risk of new-onset diabetes. This study aims to investigate how atorvastatin affects glu...

Summary: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is commonly used in healthcare, and sometimes it shows small areas of brain damage called Covert Brain Infarcts (CBIs). These are usually found by chance when people have scans for things like headaches or dizziness. Although CBIs don't cause symptoms at the time, they are linked to a higher risk of future stroke and death. There is currently no standard treatment ...

Summary: to Evaluate the Safety and the Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Interactions between JP-1366 and Clopidogrel, Aspirin, Atorvastatin and Apixaban

Summary: Bile acid diarrhoea (BAD) is a socially debilitating disease with stomach pain, high stool frequency, urgency, and faecal incontinence as the main symptoms. Studies estimate that 1-2% of the population suffers from the disease. There is an unmet need for more treatment options in patients suffering from BAD. The investigators hypothesise that atorvastatin treatment lowers bile acid synthesis in pa...

Summary: This is a single-center, open-label, randomized clinical trial conducted at the Instituto Dante Pazzanese de Cardiologia, São Paulo, Brazil. The study evaluates a simplified treatment strategy for patients with apparent resistant hypertension, comparing fixed triple combination therapy (perindopril, indapamide, and amlodipine) with usual care using multiple separate antihypertensive drugs. The pri...

Summary: This is a research study to test the safety and effectiveness of using the drug alpelisib together with chemotherapy (nab-paclitaxel) and a drug called L-NMMA in patients with HER2 negative metastatic or locally advanced metaplastic breast cancer, who have not responded to previous treatments. Participants in this study in addition to the standard care chemotherapy will also receive the drug alpel...

Summary: Monotherapies for lowering LDL-C often do not achieve target lipid levels because they act on a single pathway, which may be insufficient in patients with high cardiovascular risk or complex lipid profiles. Triple combination therapies, targeting multiple mechanisms of cholesterol metabolism simultaneously, have demonstrated superior LDL-C reduction and better achievement of guideline recommended ...

Summary: The purpose of this study is to explore the mechanism of cognitive impairment in patients with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS), and further plans to explore the impact of different treatment options on cognitive function in symptomatic ICAS patients.

Summary: This study proposes that the addition of statins reduces the treatment delays or early discontinuations secondary to cardiotoxicity in patients with Stage I-III HER2 positive breast being treated with anti-HER2 therapy.

Summary: PREVENTABLE is a multi-center, randomized, parallel group, placebo-controlled superiority study. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to atorvastatin 40 mg or placebo. This large study conducted in community-dwelling older adults without cardiovascular disease (CVD) or dementia will demonstrate the benefit of statins for reducing the primary composite of death, dementia, and persistent disability a...

Summary: This clinical trial tests whether atorvastatin prevents metastasis of resected high-risk stage IIA, IIB or IIIA melanoma. The vast majority of melanomas are diagnosed at an early, localized stage. However, approximately 10-15% of these localized melanomas will eventually metastasize, despite appropriate local treatment. Once metastasis occurs, median survival is less than two years. Melanomas at h...
