Rheumatoid Arthritis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effects of HMG-coA Reductase Inhibitor on Progression of Carotid Intima-Media Thickness and Arterial Stiffness in Rheumatoid Arthritis
The purpose of this study is:
1. To evaluate the prevalence of preclinical atherosclerosis in Chinese patients with RA
compared to healthy controls.
2. To determine those clinical and biological measures that best predict the presence of
plaque and increased arterial stiffness.
3. To ascertain the efficacy and safety of rosuvastatin in the prevention of
atherosclerosis in patients with RA measured by carotid intima-media thickness (IMT)
and pulse wave velocity (PWV).
150 consecutive RA patients followed at the Rheumatology clinic of the Prince of Wales
Hospital will be recruited for this double-blind, randomized, placebo-control trial.
Patients were matched to 150 controls on the basis of age (within 5 years), sex, body mass
index (+/-5Kg) and ethnicity for the cross sectional study on the prevalence of subclinical
atherosclerosis. Controls were healthy individuals recruited from the same community who
underwent similar imaging protocols of the IMT and PWV assessments.
Primary outcome is the improvement of atherosclerosis by Rosuvastatin therapy, evaluated by
IMT and PWV.
Secondary outcomes:
- Prevalence of premature atherosclerosis in RA patients compared to healthy controls in
terms of the presence of plague and PWV.
- Correlation between clinical parameters, inflammatory markers (CRP/hsCRP, TNF-alpha and
IL-6) and atherosclerosis (evaluated by IMT, the presence of plaque and PWV).
- Relation among PWV, ABI and AI in RA patients, and clinical significance of their
combination.
- Determine which segment's PWV has a better relation with RA disease activity.
