Study Summary

The investigator's hypothesis is that local activation of the endogenous Lp-PLA2 plays an integral role in early atherosclerosis, and contributes to the mechanism of coronary endothelial dysfunction and to the structural and mechanical properties that characterize plaque vulnerability. Thus, the investigators study will characterize prospectively the correlation between the functional and structural vascular wall properties, and the activity of the Lp-PLA2 pathway.

Primary Outcome

Following recruitment of the total study population and 6-months therapy with the Lp-PLA2 inhibitor or placebo, using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) we will quantify alternate features of plaque vulnerability including superficial microcalcification, fibrous cap thickness, and plaque macrophage content comparing baseline and 6 months studies.
