Atorvastatin for Heart Failure in Patients Receiving Anthracycline
Recruiting0 awardsPhase 2
Toronto, Ontario
This trial tests if taking atorvastatin before and during chemotherapy can prevent heart problems in cancer patients. It focuses on those with existing heart risk factors. Statins may help by reducing inflammation and protecting heart cells from damage caused by chemotherapy. Atorvastatin, a statin, is widely used to lower blood cholesterol and reduce cardiovascular disease risk, and recent studies suggest it may also help reduce heart problems in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.

Atorvastatin + Anakinra for Kawasaki Disease
Recruiting1 awardPhase < 1
San Diego, California
This trial will study the effects of combination therapy with atorvastatin and anakinra in children with acute Kawasaki Disease and early coronary artery abnormalities.
HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitor
High-Dose Atorvastatin for Early Stage Age-Related Macular Degeneration
Recruiting3 awardsPhase 2
Boston, Massachusetts
This trial uses a high dose of atorvastatin (80 mg) to treat patients with a certain eye condition. The goal is to reduce deposits in the eye, which can help improve vision in low light conditions and slow the progression of the disease. Preliminary studies have shown significant improvement in patients taking this high-dose treatment.
HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitor
Statins for Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)
Recruiting0 awardsPhase 2
Durham, North Carolina
This trial will test whether or not a daily dose of atorvastatin (a type of statin) is effective in treating NASH and hepatic fibrosis, and whether it is safe. The results of this study will help design a larger study on the matter.

Birmingham, Alabama
This study is to compare the pharmacodynamics of a Fixed Dose Combination Pill AAR (acetylsalicylic acid 100 mg, atorvastatin 40 mg and ramipril 10 mg) and the respective reference products, atorvastatin (Lipitor®) 40 mg and ramipril (Altace®) 10 mg.

Atorvastatin for Atrial Fibrillation
Recruiting5 awardsPhase 4
Omaha, Nebraska
This study will compare the effects of 20 mg of atorvastatin to 80 mg of atorvastatin for the prevention of atrial fibrillation after cardiothoracic surgery. The study hypothesis is that 80 mg of atorvastatin will be more effective at preventing atrial fibrillation compared to 20 mg.

Atorvastatin for Atherosclerosis
Recruiting5 awardsPhase 4
Houston, Texas
Atherosclerosis is a disease in which the blood vessels become blocked by plaques (consisting of fat, calcification, and fibrous tissue), reducing blood flow to vital organs and tissues.Blockage of the carotid arteries in the neck is a major cause of stroke. One way of treating carotid atherosclerosis is with cholesterol-lowering drugs called statins. Statins have been shown to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease by 24-40% and risk pf stroke by 11-30%.The purpose of this study is to determine if short term treatment with atorvastatin causes early favorable changes in the plaques that block blood flow through the carotid arteries. These changes can be assessed 1) by taking pictures of the carotid arteries with MRI and Ultrasound before and after statin treatment, and 2) by special studies of the plaques removed from the carotid arteries by surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
