A Study of RO4607381 in Stable Coronary Heart Disease Patients With Recent Acute Coronary Syndrome
Status: Recruiting
Protocol Number: NC20971
Sponsor: Hoffmann-La Roche
Company Division: Pharmaceutical
Official Scientific Title: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study assessing the effect of RO4607381 on cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in clinically stable patients with a recent acute coronary syndrome
Brief Summary: This study will evaluate the potential of RO4607381 to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in stable coronary heart disease patients with recent Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) and evaluate the long term safety profile of the drug. Eligible patients in stable condition will be randomized to receive either RO4607381 600mg po or placebo po, daily, together with a background of standard medication for ACS (including aspirin, antihypertensives and statins). The anticipated time on study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals. Target sample size is 25530.
