A Study Assessing the Effect of RO4607381 on Vascular Function in Patients With Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) or CHD-Risk Equivalent Patients
Status: Recruiting
Protocol number: BC21144
Sponsor: Hoffmann-La Roche
Company division: Pharmaceutical
Official Scientific Title: A randomized, placebo-controlled study of the safety, tolerability and effect on endothelial function, as measured by flow mediated dilatation, of RO4607381 in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) or CHD risk equivalents.
Brief summary: This study will assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of RO4607381 in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) or CHD risk equivalents. Patients will be randomized to receive either RO4607381 600mg po daily or placebo po daily. Endothelial function will be measured by flow mediated dilatation and blood pressure monitoring will be assessed. The anticipated time on study treatment is up to 12 months, and the target sample size is up to 500 individuals. Target sample size is 450.
