How statins affect cells in healthy adults
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial looks at how statins (cholesterol-lowering drugs) affect certain cells in healthy young adults. By participating, you help researchers understand how statins work in the body.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 40 years old.
- You are generally healthy with no significant diseases.
- You do not smoke.
- You are not taking regular medications (including birth control pills).
- You are fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

This trial studies whether cholesterol-lowering medicine (a statin, specifically atorvastatin) improves health and benefits in people age 75 and older in everyday life. It may help doctors understand which older adults benefit most and how to use these medicines safely.
This trial tests whether certain statin drugs change blood sugar levels. You may join if you are generally healthy and do not have diabetes.
This early study tests whether “liver fat” changes how a statin (rosuvastatin) works in children and teens. It may help doctors choose safer or more effective dosing in kids based on biology and a specific genetics marker.
This trial tests how two common cholesterol-lowering drugs (statins) affect heart health in healthy volunteers. It helps researchers understand if these drugs have any effects on heart rate, blood pressure, or heart rhythm in people without existing health problems.
This study looks at blood markers (“biomarkers”) to better understand health risk in older adults who have multiple long-term illnesses and are taking statin medicines. It may help researchers predict outcomes and improve care for people with complex health needs.
This study looks at whether taking a low- to moderate-dose statin can prevent first-time heart and stroke problems in people age 70 and older. It may help you lower “bad cholesterol” (LDL) and see if that leads to fewer heart events over time.
