The Cardio Marker Screening Study

Currently Recruiting

Up to $200

Melbourne, Australia

This screening study is part of the enrolment process for an upcoming clinical research study, The Cardio Markers Study. The study is helping researchers learn more about an investigational drug being developed to target two important markers linked to heart health: LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) and lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)].

The aim of The Cardio Markers Study is to understand how the study drug behaves in the body and to assess its safety in healthy adults. The information collected may support future research involving people with elevated LDL-C or Lp(a), who may be at higher risk of cardiovascular disease.

Taking part in this screening study allows researchers to assess your eligibility for participation in The Cardio Marker Study.

Join our clinical trial

This is not a first-in-human (FIH) study, meaning it is not the first time the potential treatment is being tested in people.

The study has been carefully designed with strict safety protocols and has been approved by an independent ethics committee. It is not known whether the study drug may cause unexpected, serious, or life-threatening side effects. While these are considered unlikely, you will be carefully monitored throughout the study and provided with prompt treatment if any such effects occur.

Before joining, you’ll receive detailed information about the study, meet with a doctor, and have the chance to ask any questions.
