Effect of Olivomed (Olive Extract) on Endothelial, Cardiac and Vascular Function

January 3, 2024 updated by: Ignatios Ikonomidis, University of Athens

Effect of Olivomed (Olive Extract) on Endothelial, Cardiac and Vascular Function of Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease

Olive extracts are considered to have antioxidant properties. The investigators will study the effect of olive extracts containing hydroxytyrosol (HT)-olivomed and combination of Oleuropein (OL), Hydroxytyrosol (HT), Oleocanthal (OC) - olivomedSmart on endothelial, cardiac and vascular function in patients with coronary artery disease .

Study Overview

Detailed Description

30 patients with stable angiographically documented coronary artery disease will be randomized to receive olive extracts with high concentration of hydroxytyrosol (5 mg po twice per day included in Olivomed capsules) or placebo for one month and then they will be switched off to the alternate treatment (placebo or Olivomed capsules) for another one month.

30 patients with stable angiographically documented coronary artery disease will be randomized to receive OlivomedSmart - olive extracts with Oleuropein (OL), Hydroxytyrosol (HT), Oleocanthal (OC) (OL:HT:OC 2:1:3) or placebo for one month and then they will be switched off to the alternate treatment (placebo or Olivomed capsules) for another one month.

the same quantity of hydroxytyrosol was contained in two supplements.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Olivomed and OlivomedSmart effects on endothelial glycocalyx thickness.
Time Frame: one month
Olivomed and OlivomedSmart effects on endothelial glycocalyx thickness as assessed by perfused boundary region (PBR, micrometers) of the sublingual arterial microvessels using Sidestream Darkfield (SDF) imaging
one month
Olivomed and OlivomedSmart effects on endothelial function.
Time Frame: one month
Olivomed and OlivomedSmarteffects on endothelial function. Endothelial function is assessed by measuring Flow Mediated Vasodilation (FMD) of the brachial artery using ultrasonography. During FMD test, vasodilation occurs following an acute increase in blood flow, typically induced via circulatory arrest in the arm (supra-systolic cuff occlusion) for 5 minutes. FMD is the percent of increase of the brachial artery diameter during hyperemia after release of the occlusion.
one month
Olivomed and OlivomedSmart effects on arterial stiffness
Time Frame: one month
Olivomed and OlivomedSmart effects on on arterial stiffness as assessed by carotid to femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV, m/s) using tonometry.
one month
Olivomed and OlivomedSmarteffects on coronary function.
Time Frame: one month
Olivomed and OlivomedSmart effects on coronary function as assessed by measuring coronary flow reserve of Left anterior descending artery. Coronary flow reserve is estimated by Doppler echocardiography as the ratio of coronary flow velocity after bolus intravenous adenosine infusion to coronary flow velocity at rest.
one month
Olivomed and OlivomedSmart effects on left ventricular function.
Time Frame: one month
Olivomed and OlivomedSmart effects on left ventricular function as assessed by Global Longitudinal Strain using speckle tracking echocardiography.
one month
