Clinical Trial: Mitochondrial Derived Reactive Oxygen Species on Cardiovascular Health in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: RECRUITING
Condition: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
Official Title: The Influence of Mitochondrial Derived Reactive Oxygen Species on Cardiovascular Health in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Brief Summary:
Cardiovascular health is a critical problem in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Existing literature suggests oxidative stress from the mitochondria c driving some of the poor health outcomes in COPD.MitoQ is a mitochondrial-targeted antioxidant that has shown promise in improving cardiovascular outcomes in similar populations.Thus the purpose of this study is to test if MitoQ can improve cardiovascular health in COPD.
