First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether statins, common cholesterol-lowering drugs, can reduce inflammation and slow the progression of two blood disorders: CCUS and lower-risk MDS. These conditions can lead to more serious blood cancers or heart problems, and there are no approved treatments to improve survival. About 16 participants will take statins, and researchers will measure changes in blood markers to see if the drugs help.
