Heart Disease in Women clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

CPH-PRECIOUS

Start date: May 20, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Women with a history of preeclampsia (PE) have increased risk of hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD) later in life. Thus, PE is acknowledged as an independent risk factor for CVD, which is the number one cause of death in women in the western part of the world. Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate 1) the prevalence of CVD after PE, 2) which women have the highest risk of developing CVD, 3) when early stages of CVD can be detected in women with previous PE and 4) how CVD progress over time. Methods: 1000 women with previous PE between the age of 35-55 years will be invited to participate in a follow-up study consisting of anthropometric measurements, blood pressure measurement, urine- and blood samples, cardiac CT-scan and questionnaires. Coronary atherosclerosis will be evaluated using CT imaging.The women will be compared with women with a formerly uncomplicated pregnancy, Summary: The study will provide new important information to guide future clinical follow-up, and potentially prevent disease and early death in a large group of women with a history of PE.
