RESEARCH:
CLINICAL STUDIES:
ALLHAT: Antihypertensive and Lipid-
Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack
Trial. ALLHAT was a blinded, randomized trial
that investigated the relative efficacy of different
classes of antihypertensive agents in reducing
stroke, illness and death from cardiovascular
diseases. A subgroup of patients with
hyperlipidemia was randomized comparing
Pravastatin compared to usual care.
A Houston Site – Principal Investigator (1998)
INVEST: The International Verapamil SR/
Trandolapril Study. INVEST was a randomized
controlled clinical trial comparing a calcium
antagonist treatment strategy (Isoptin® SR) with a
non calcium antagonist treatment strategy for the
control of hypertension in a primary care coronary
artery disease patient population.
A Houston Site – Principal Investigator (1998)
INVEST SUB-STUDY: This study was a sub-
study of the INVEST patient population designed to
evaluate the impact of genetic differences on
pharmacokinetics.
A Houston Site – Principal Investigator (2000)
The Safety and Efficacy of PNU-182716 Versus
Rosiglitazone: This was a one-year, randomized,
double blind, parallel group, and active comparator
study.
A Houston Site – Principal Investigator (2000)
FACTOR: Fenofibrate and Cerivastatin Trial
Optimizing Response. FACTOR was a
multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo
controlled, parallel group, study of the safety and
efficacy of Cerivastatin in combination with
Fenofibrate compared to Cerivastatin alone,
Fenofibrate alone and placebo in a population of
Type 2 Diabetic Men and Women.

RAPIDO CATHETER STUDY: This study was
designed to evaluate the efficacy of a left
ventricular defibrillator-pacemaker lead delivery
system.

A Houston Site – Principal Investigator

PROTOS HEART RATE DISTRIBUTION
STUDY: This was a clinical study designed to
compare the heart rate distribution in patients
undergoing pacemaker implants requiring heart rate
response therapy. This study compared the heart
rate distribution of accelerometer rate response
therapy to the BIOTRONIK Closed Loop System
therapy.
Grant Sponsor – Biotronik, Inc. 2003
A Houston Site – Principal Investigator
