A composition and a method of treatment utilizing a combination of statins (or HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors), a class of drug used to lower cholesterol levels by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, with mixtures of an omega-3 fatty acid formulation containing about 90% or more omega 3 fatty acids by weight including a combination of Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), Docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in a weight ratio of EPA:DHA of from 5.7 to 6.3, wherein the sum of the EPA, DHA and DPA represent about 82% by weight of the total formulation and about 92% of the total omega 3 fatty acid content of the composition, the compositions and method designed to stabilize vulnerable plaque while mediating omega-3 deficiencies in individuals in need thereof.

Process and composition for stabilization of vulnerable plaque utilizing a combination of a statin and omega 3 fatty acids

The present invention provides a kit for the dietary management of cardiovascular patients with cardiovascular disease who are deficient in blood Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) levels, the kit including a diagnostic assay for determining blood levels of EPA, DHA and Docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) and a pharmaceutical grade prescription medical food omega-3 fatty acid formulation containing about 90% or more omega 3 fatty acids by weight including a combination of EPA, DPA and DHA in a weight ratio of EPA:DHA of from 5.7 to 6.3, wherein the sum of the EPA, DHA and DPA are about 82% by weight of the total formulation and about 92% of the total omega 3 fatty acid content of the composition. The kit may further contain instructions for use of its components.

Omega 3 fatty acid for use as a prescription medical food and omega 3 fatty acid diagniostic assay for the dietary management of cardiovascular patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) who are deficient in blood EPA and DHA levels

A composition and a method of treatment utilizing a combination of lipid lowering cholesterol absorption inhibitors, e.g. azetidinones, with mixtures of an omega-3 fatty acid formulation containing about 90% or more omega 3 fatty acids by weight including a combination of Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), Docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in a weight ratio of EPA:DHA of from 5.7 to 6.3, wherein the sum of the EPA, DHA and DPA represent about 82% by weight of the total formulation and about 92% of the total omega 3 fatty acid content of the composition are taught. EPA+DHA are about 80% of the total formulation and about 89% of the total omega 3 fatty acid content of the composition. The formulation may further contain specific amounts of arachidonic acid (AA), stearidonic acid (SDA), and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).

The instant invention involves the use of a combination of preparatory steps in conjunction with mass spectroscopy and time-of-flight detection procedures to maximize the diversity of biopolymers which are verifiable within a particular sample. The cohort of biopolymers verified within such a sample is then viewed with reference to their ability to evidence at least one particular disease state; thereby enabling a diagnostician to gain the ability to characterize either the presence or absence of at least one disease state relative to recognition of the presence and/or the absence of the biopolymer.
