Heart drug trial halted for bowel disease

NCT ID NCT04883840

Summary

This study tested whether common cholesterol-lowering drugs called statins could help control ulcerative colitis by changing the mix of bacteria in the gut. It involved 177 adults with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease who were not already taking statins. The trial was terminated early, so results are incomplete.
