Summary

This study tests whether icosapent ethyl, a purified fish-oil medication, can slow the buildup of calcium in the aortic valve. About 110 adults with mild-to-moderate aortic valve stenosis will take the drug or a placebo. The main goal is to see if the drug reduces the increase in valve calcium over time.
