Study Summary

To evaluate the causal relationship between Rho/Rho kinase overactivity and mechanisms of vascular dysfunction in patients with atherosclerosis.

Primary Outcome

We were going to compare Rho/ROCK expression and eNOS expression/activity in carotid specimens obtained from patients treated with fasudil and compare those to specimens obtained from patients treated with placebo. We anticipated that Rho/ROCK expression and activity would be decreased in spcimens obtained from fasudil treated patients compared to specimens obtained from patients treated with placebo. We also anticipated that eNOS expression and activity would be increased in specimens obtained

Interventions

  • DRUG Placebo Oral Tablet
  • DRUG Fasudil Hydrochloride
