Active clinical trials for "Hyperlipidemias"

A Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of K-877 in Chinese Patients with High TG and Low HDL-C

To date, there are highly effective lipid-lowering drugs, the combination of which makes it possible to achieve the target level of LDL-C in most patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). However, the effectiveness of treatment of FH patients strongly depends on adherence to lipid-lowering therapy and to the healthy lifestyle, as well as the detection of the disease and the therapy prescription as early as possible, better in childhood. The aim of the study is to assess the impact of genetic testing and motivational counseling on the effectiveness of treatment and cascade screening in patients with FH.

The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of PCSK 9 Inhibitor (initiated within 4 h from PCI for the culprit lesion) with high-intensity statin treatment, compared to placebo with high-intensity statin treatment, on cardiovascular events (including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke or transit ischemic attack, re-hospitalization due to unstable angina or heart failure, or any ischemia-driven coronary revascularization) in patients with acute coronary syndrome and multiple lesions.

Investigators aimed to evaluate efficacy and safety of early Initiation of evolocumab and combination lipid-lowering agent (statin + Ezetimibe) on lipid profiles changes in patients with ACS undergoing PCI

This is a randomized, single blind, placebo controlled, single center phase I study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary pharmacodynamics of single and multiple ascending doses of subcutaneously administered RBD7022 in participants with normal or elevated LDL-c cholesterol. The study will be performed in 2 phases: single ascending dose (SAD) phase and multiple ascending doses (MAD) phase in participants. The decision to escalate to subsequent dose levels will be made by the SRC based on the review of all available safety information in each cohort.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase Ⅲ clinical study evaluating the efficacy and safety of AK102 in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed hyperlipidemia.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase # clinical study evaluating the efficacy and safety of AK102 Q6W in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed hyperlipidemia.

This study explores the efficacy of domestic adlay in improving blood sugar and lipids metabolism, cardiovascular function, and weight control in people with high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and hyperglycemia. Through two weeks of cooked adlay-rice and white rice by a randomized cross-over design to evaluate the lipid- and glucose-lowering effects of adlay on patient with hyperlipidemia and/or hyperglycemia.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetcs and pharmacodynamics of single-dose of JS401 in healthy volunteers with normal or mildly elevated triglycerides.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality after renal transplantation, accounting for more than 30% of deaths. Elevated lipid levels (hyperlipidemia) are a frequent finding following transplantation and the immunosuppressive medications play a central role in the development or worsening of hyperlipidemia. In the general population, the correlation between elevated serum cholesterol and increased risk of cardiovascular disease is well established and the reduction in serum LDL cholesterol has proved to significantly reduce both morbidity and mortality. Statin based drugs are the standard of care in the management of hyperlipidemia. Commonly used statin-based drugs include atorvastatin (Lipitor), fluvastatin (Lescol, Lescol XL), lovastatin (Mevacor, Altoprev), pravastatin (Pravachol), rosuvastatin (Crestor), simvastatin (Zocor), and pitavastatin (Livalo). These drugs have been proven to lower lipid levels as well as cardiovascular risk. However, statin-based drugs also cause a variety of side effects. While the most commonly encountered side effects are toxicity to the liver and muscles, a few others have also been known to cause increased excretion of protein in the urine and kidney failure. These side effects are also more common in a renal transplant recipient due to the simultaneous administration of drugs that prevent rejection. Therefore, there is an emergent need for newer drugs which are both efficient and safe especially in this population PCSK-9 inhibitors (Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin Kinase-9 inhibitors) are a new class of drugs that are highly efficient in lowering lipid levels in the general population. However, an exclusive trial involving kidney transplant recipients is yet to be done. Through this study, we would like to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Evolocumab (trade name: Repatha) which is a PCSK-9 inhibitor developed by Amgen, Inc in renal transplant recipients. The study would involve a total of 120 patients across 3 different hospitals in Boston, Massachusetts.
