Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
CT coronary angiography plus routine cardiovascular risk factor assessment.
- CT coronary angiography will be performed at an accredited centre and typically will involve less than 1 hour of the participant's time. An intravenous cannula will be required for iodinated contrast to be administered during the scan.
- The routine cardiovascular risk factor assessment will be performed over 15-30 minutes clinic by a Cardiologist and will involve a clinical assessment of risk factors, medications, physical exam findings, blood tests and calculation of risk using the Australian CVD risk calculator.

Routine cardiovascular risk factor assessment
- The routine cardiovascular risk factor assessment will be performed over 15-30 minutes clinic by a Cardiologist and will involve a clinical assessment of risk factors, medications, physical exam findings, blood tests and calculation of risk using the Australian CVD risk calculator.

Key exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria for the apparently healthy relative will include:

• Already taking aspirin or statin.
• History of iodinated contrast allergy/anaphylaxis.
• Known renal impairment with estimated glomerular filtration rate <45 ml/min/1.73m2.

Study design
Purpose of the study
Prevention
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Allocation concealment will be performed through central randomisation by a computer.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Randomisation will be performed by computer software, accounting for the cluster randomised design where family members will be randomised to the same arm.
Masking / blinding
Open (masking not used)
Who is / are masked / blinded?
