Can Omega-3 boost statins to fight artery plaque in diabetes?

NCT ID NCT05365438

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether adding omega-3 to a common statin (atorvastatin) can better reduce plaque buildup in the neck arteries of people with type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol. About 105 adults will be randomly assigned to get either atorvastatin plus omega-3 or atorvastatin plus another drug (ezetimibe). The goal is to see which combo works best to slow or shrink plaque, measured by ultrasound over time.
