ACC Late Breaking Science: TACTiC Trial

Cleveland Clinic led TACTiC Trial was presented at the American College of Cardiology’s 73rd Annual Scientific Session.  Steven Nissen, MD, discusses the results with Katherine Wolski, Lead Biostatistician in the Cleveland Clinic Coordinating Center for Clinical Research (C5Research).  C5Research is Cleveland Clinic's Academic Research Organization (ARO) providing academic focus and leadership to the design, planning and management of clinical trials.  Dr. Nissen worked with C5Research to  investigate  if a  technology-assisted web application can help consumers appropriately determine if they qualify for a statin drug without a prescription.  “Improving cardiovascular health requires increasing access to preventive care for everyone.”  - Dr. Nissen.
