I wonder if those with much at stake would ever try to harm this study. Not to sound conspiratorial, but could they, say find out who the subjects of the study are and give them meds that would that would do the opposite of what Vascepa does? Probably far fetched, but if there are billion of dollars at stake, then... maybe?

Thanks Bio

Actually theres a more detailed exclusion sheet out there somewhere ...specifically mentions that you are excluded if you can not get your LDL below 100 on max dose Statins ( and now also have TG's over 200 )

They excluded me because I could not get my LDL under 100 despite max dose Statins.

I later got my LDL down to 98 with max dose Statins, max dose Zetia , Max dose Vascepa ( see what a lab rat I am :)...re applied and was told in a round about way they they only want those they expected to event within 5yrs ( because these would benefit the most from the research ) ...and they figured I was not likely to

Sort of a bad news / good news kind of thing :)

PS Since stopped Zetia ...now down to max dose Crestor and Vascepa
