Active clinical trials for "Hypercholesterolemia"

This study evaluates the effects of consuming a defined, plant-based diet on lipoprotein(a) and other atherogenic particles associated with cardiovascular disease risk.

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.

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.

To evaluate the effects of daily consumption of 3 capsules of Swisse Nutra+ Cholesterol Balance on serum LDL-cholesterol in adults with hypercholesterolaemia compared to placebo over four months. This is a single-centre, randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel study. Applicants will be eligible to participate if they have hypercholesterolemia, defined by fasting LDL-cholesterol 2.5mmol/L and ≤5 mmol/L confirmed at screening visit. Participants who are otherwise healthy will be included in the study; individuals with a history of cardiovascular disease are excluded from this trial. Following pre-screening telephone assessment, applicants will attend an in-clinic screening visit and following informed consent, their general health and eligibility for inclusion into the study will be assessed. On Day 1 eligible participants will be randomly allocated to receive one of two study treatments (intervention or placebo). Participants will consume the assigned treatment daily for four months. Participants will return to the clinic at months 2 and 4 for assessment of primary and secondary outcomes. Compliance, adverse events and concomitant medication use will be assessed at these visits. In addition, participants will complete an online survey at months 1 and 3 to assess protocol compliance, adverse events and use of concomitant medications. Any queries that arise from the survey will be followed up by phone call. Dietary intakes will be assessed at the baseline and four-month visits. A final participant online survey and phone call (if needed) will be conducted one month after the 4-month visit for a final safety assessment.

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).

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.

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

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.

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).
