Dose Response Effects of Marine Omega-3 Fatty Acids on Inflammation
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Eicosapentaenoic Acid and Docosahexaenoic Acid (EPA + DHA) for Cardiovascular Disease and Inflammation. Completed, enrolled 125 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the lowest effective dose of EPA + DHA (300, 600, 900 and 1,800 mg/day delivered as fish oil supplements) that significantly attenuates the inflammatory response to in vivo and ex vivo endotoxin challenge as measured by the production over time of several inflammatory markers.
