Active clinical trials for "Hypercholesterolemia"

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of two different daily doses of tetrahydrocannabivarin impregnated mouth strips in healthy non-diabetic obese adults. The main questions to answer are: Is the low dose treatment superior to placebo for losing weight, abdominal girth, cholesterol levels and blood glucose levels? Is the low dose treatment superior to placebo for losing weight, abdominal girth, cholesterol levels and blood glucose levels? Is one dose better than the other dose? Participants will take either the low dose, high dose or placebo dose daily for ninety days and have physical measurements and blood tests obtained at the beginning and the end of the study.

A prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled study was designed to study the hypolipidemic effect of CMO capsules on healthy volunteers with elevated cholesterol levels.

The primary purpose of this placebo-controlled study is to evaluate the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) efficacy and dose-response of gemcabene 300, 600 and 900 mg/day administered as monotherapy or in combination with atorvastatin 10, 40, and 80 mg/day to hypercholesterolemic patients. Secondary purposes include evaluating the effects of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TG) and apolipoprotein B (ApoB), and safety and efficacy of gemcabene monotherapy and gemcabene/atorvastatin combination.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of gemcabene on HDL-C, LDL-C, TG, and other lipid levels in patients with low HDL-C

The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of multiple doses of gemcabene 600 mg QD compared to placebo in patients with hypercholesterolemia not adequately controlled on high-intensity or moderate-intensity stable statin therapy. Patients with HeFH, ASCVD, or otherwise uncontrolled, may be included with baseline LDL-C value ≥ 100 mg/dL. Subjects were randomized 1:1 to gemcabene 600 mg once daily (QD) or placebo.

The purpose of this study was to characterize the safety and tolerability of long-term administration of evolocumab in adults with known coronary artery disease and hypercholesterolemia.

Efficacy of plant stanols as esters on LDL-cholesterol reduction is well documented. LDL-cholesterol lowering efficacy of the ingredient in a biscuit (providing 2 g plant stanols as esters per day) is less well known.

Study AFF012 is a single blind, single-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group, phase I clinical trial of repeated administration by subcutaneous injection of a single dose of one of two different proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 targeting AFFITOPE® vaccines or Placebo. This study will assess Safety, Immunogenicity and low density lipoprotein cholesterol-lowering activity of the two vaccines. 72 healthy subjects are divided into three test groups (2 treatment groups, 1 placebo group), each consisting of 24 subjects. The subjects are randomized to receive either of two AFFITOPEs® (AT04A or AT06A, adsorbed to 1 mg aluminium oxyhydroxide) or placebo (1 mg aluminium oxyhydroxide). The study consists of 3 parts, part A, encompassing Visit 1 to Visit 8, covering 3 priming immunizations at a dose of 15μg at days 0, 28 and 56 and the immediate observation period extending to day 140; the prolonged observation period: part B, encompassing Visit 9 and Visit 10 at days 273 and 365; and part C consisting of 7 visits (V11 to V17). Study participants having received 3 priming vaccinations and having completed part B will receive in part C one boost immunization at a dose of 75μg, which will be applied one year after the 3rd immunization (day 420). Probands will proceed directly from part A to part B and to part C. Continuation of parts B and C will be considered based on the part A results, primarily the immunological results. The following scenarios apply (provided that there is no safety issue). None of the two treatment groups exhibits a vaccine-specific antibody response over the placebo group at Visit 8 - this will lead to termination of the trial. One of the two groups fails to exhibit a vaccine-specific antibody response over the placebo group at Visit 8 - this will lead to its discontinuation; the other treatment group and the placebo group will be continued.

The investigators tested if a nutraceutical combination with red yeast rice, berberine and policosanol (NC) can significantly modify inflammation, lipid profile and markers of endothelial injury (endothelial microparticles) in subjects with elevated levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP).

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety of Rosuvastatin in Children and Adolescents with Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia.
