Active clinical trials for "Hypercholesterolemia"

This was a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized trial in Japanese participants with history of coronary artery disease (CAD) or participants categorized in 'high risk' by JAS 2017 guideline, or Japanese participants with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) and elevated Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) despite maximum tolerated dose of statin(s) to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and PK of subcutaneous inclisiran injection(s).

FIBRACEP is an onion based fiber that has demonstrated in vitro and in animal models the capacity to increase HDL cholesterol levels as well to improve other lipid profile species. This intervention aims to demonstrate FIBRACEP's blood lipid profile improvement effect. For that purpose, hypercholesterolemic subjects will be recruited and given a daily dose of 7 g of FIBRACEP for two months. Changes in blood lipid profile will be the end-point of the study.

To Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Combination Therapy of Pitavastatin and Ezetimibe Versus Monotherapy of Pitavastatin in Patients With Primary Hypercholesterolemia.

An unpublished study by the investigators on healthy participants has shown that the supplementation of oil palm phenolics (OPP) at 250 mg is the optimum dose to demonstrate the ability to lower total and LDL cholesterol. There is no clinical evidence as yet on that optimum dosage of OPP supplementation in improving fasting lipid profile in minor hyperlipidemia subjects. The investigators hypothesize that in a clinical study, OPP supplemented to the minor hyperlipidemic participants will elicit a reduction in total and LDL cholesterol while maintaining safety and tolerability. OPP may have the potential to be positioned as natural health supplement in improving lipid profile.

This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of obicetrapib 10 mg, both in combination with ezetimibe 10 mg and as monotherapy, as an adjunct to high-intensity statin therapy.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD), especially its management and associated costs, remains a major concern globally. There is a direct correlation between circulating levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and the incidence of CVD. This study will assess bempedoic acid/FDC in a real-world clinical setting in adult patients in Spain with hypercholesterolaemia or mixed dyslipidemia.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic characteristics and compare the safety and tolerability after repeated separate or combined administrations of BR1018-1 and BR1018-2 in healthy adults.

Data concerning the effectiveness od nutraceuticals in children with dyslipidemia are lacking. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the long-term use of a dietary supplement containing red yeast rice (RYR), combined with other natural compounds, in children and adolescents with hypercholesterolemia. A nutraceutical, containing RYR, polycosanols, coenzyme Q10, astaxanthin and folic acid (commercial name: Armolipid), was administered once-daily in 84 children/adolescents with moderate or severe hypercholesterolemia.

This single-centre cross-sectional study aims to ascertain the impact of dyslipidemia on long-term graft patency after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Primary Objective: To compare the efficacy of alirocumab (Praluent®) with standard of care (SoC) on coronary atheroma progression (percent change in normalized total atheroma volume [TAV]) after 9 months of treatment in participants who had acute coronary syndrome (ACS) within 4 weeks prior to randomization, with hypercholesterolemia treated with statin. Secondary Objectives: To compare the efficacy of alirocumab (Praluent®) with SoC on secondary endpoints including absolute change in percent atheroma volume and normalized TAV after 9 months of treatment. To evaluate the efficacy of alirocumab (Praluent®) on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), apolipoprotein B, triglycerides, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and lipoprotein (a) after 9 months treatment. To evaluate the safety of alirocumab (Praluent®) including the occurrence of cardiovascular events (coronary heart disease death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, fatal and non-fatal ischemic stroke, unstable angina requiring hospitalization) throughout the study.
