Bicuspid Aortic Valve Clinical Trial
Official title:
Evaluating the Effectiveness of Atorvastatin on the Progression of Aortic Dilatation and Valvular Degeneration in Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Valve (BICATOR)
Bicuspid Aortic Valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart disease affecting 1-2% of the population. The aortic dilation and aortic valve degeneration are common complications in patients with BAV. Statins have shown a reduction in the expression of metalloproteinases of the extracellular matrix observed in aortic aneurisms. Several retrospective studies have suggested the benefit of the statins to reduce aortic dilation in patients with BAV. Moreover, although statins did not show to be useful in the progression of aortic stenosis, different studies have suggested a higher profit when the valve affection is not severe. The objective of this study is to determine whether atorvastatin is effective at reducing the progression of aortic dilation in patients with BAV.
BICATOR is a multicentre (8 centres), randomised, double-blind and placebo-controlled clinical trial aimed at evaluating the effect of atorvastatin in reducing progression of aortic dilation in patients with BAV. The primary outcome is to determine whether atorvastatin is effective in reducing aortic dilation in BAV and secondary outcome is to define if atorvastatin treatment slows the progression of aortic valve degeneration (valve calcification) in a 3 year follow-up period. 220 patients will be included (110 atorvastatin - 110 placebo). ;
