简要总结

Study Objective:

  1. To evaluate whether combined therapy with folic acid 2.5 mg/day, vitamin B6 50 mg/day and vitamin B12 1000 micrograms/day vs placebo reduces the rate of atherosclerosis progression, as evaluated by quantitative B-mode carotid ultrasound (US).

详细描述

The HART study is designed as a substudy of the Heart Outcomes Prevention Evaluation-2 (HOPE-2)trial which evaluates the effect of combined therapy ? folic acid and vitamin B6 and B12 on clinical events. The study is designed to enrol 900 study participants randomized to homocysteine lowering therapies or placebo. Follow-up will estimate over 5 years. Study participants will undergo yearly carotid B-Mode ultrasound examinations.

结局指标

主要结局

The change over time (annualized progression slope) in the mean maximum IMT (the mean maximum IMT slope) defined as the average of the maximum IMT across the 12 preselected carotid arterial segments.

次要结局

  • The change over time (annualized progression slope) in the single maximum IMT amongst any of the same preselected carotid artery segments, i.e. the hemodynamically most important lesson.
