Active clinical trials for "Hypercholesterolemia"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of extended-release niacin (Niaspan) in improving the level of fats in the blood of HIV-infected patients.

Primary Objective: To collect real-use (usability) data assessing the robustness and user interaction of the new alirocumab auto-injector device (which is referred to as SYDNEY), in unsupervised settings. Secondary Objective: Device-related: To collect real-use (usability) data assessing the robustness and user interaction of SYDNEY and the current alirocumab auto-injector device (which is referred to as AI) in supervised settings. Pharmacokinetics: To compare alirocumab pharmacokinetics (PK) administered using SYDNEY and AI. To evaluate alirocumab PK administered using SYDNEY. Anti-drug antibodies: To evaluate the development of anti-drug (alirocumab) antibodies (ADA). Efficacy/pharmacodynamics: To compare the percent and absolute change in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) using SYDNEY and AI. To evaluate the percent and absolute change in LDL-C using SYDNEY. Safety: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab using both SYDNEY and AI.

To describe the safety and tolerability of evolocumab in participants with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) in India. All participants will receive evolocumab over an 8-week period.

This is a Phase III, placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized study in participants with ASCVD or ASCVD-Risk equivalents and elevated LDL-C despite maximum tolerated dose of LDL-C lowering therapies to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of subcutaneous (SC) inclisiran injection(s). The study will be an international multicenter study (non-United States).

This is a study to evaluate the lipid-altering efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ezetimibe when added to ongoing therapy with an 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor (statin) in participants with primary hypercholesterolemia, multiple cardiovascular risk factors, or known coronary heart disease (CHD) or CHD-equivalent disease. The statin and dose in use by the participant at screening will be maintained at the same dose for the 8-week treatment phase of the study. Following the treatment, there will be a 6-week cholesterol reversibility phase to determine the rebound effect on cholesterol after ezetimibe is discontinued, but the participant is still on their statin therapy. The primary hypothesis is that the addition of ezetimibe 10 mg/day to ongoing statin monotherapy will result in a further reduction in low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) compared with placebo. The protocol was amended to include an extension for participants who complete the base study. The extension will evaluate the safety and tolerability of concomitant treatment of simvastatin with ezetimibe10 mg/day over a 1-year period. All participants in the extension will be converted from current statin to an equivalent dose of simvastatin for 6 weeks. Participants then will be randomly assigned to receive simvastatin coadministered with either with Ezetimibe 10 mg daily or matching placebo for the reminder of study.

Effect of a dietary supplement with Shiitake extracts (Lentinula edodes) on lipid profile and other cardiovascular risk factors in subjects with moderate hyperlipidemia without pharmacological treatment.

A prospective, open-label, pilot study with 24 cardiovascular high risk patients (N=24) having insufficient Low density lipoprotein cholesterin (LDL-C) reduction despite standard of care lipid-modifying therapies (LMTs), to evaluate the effects of potent lipid-therapy intensification via the recently approved monoclonal, human anti-PCSK9 antibody Alirocumab on endothelial function, inflammation, lipoprotein particle subfractions, carotid arteries and post-prandial lipemia in clinical routine at the Medical University of Graz.

AZD8233 has not been evaluated in clinical studies previously. This is a first-in-human (FiH) study. This study will assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of AZD8233, following subcutaneous (SC) administration of single ascending dose (SAD) of AZD8233. This study will also investigate the pharmacodynamics (PD) of AZD8233 by investigating the effect of AZD8233 on levels of cholesterol and related biomarkers.

The primary objective of this study is to determine the effect of once-daily oral MGL-3196 on the percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in patients with Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HeFH).

The purpose of this study is to determine if bempedoic acid (ETC-1002) added-on to ezetimibe therapy is effective and safe versus placebo in patients with elevated LDL cholesterol.
