Elevated Lipoprotein(a)Cardiovascular DiseaseThis is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging study to evaluate the safety, including tolerability, of ISIS 681257 and to assess the efficacy of different doses and dosing regimens of ISIS 681257 for reduction of plasma Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels in participants with hyperlipoproteinemia(a) and established cardiovascular disease (CVD).
Effect of Alirocumab on Postprandial Hyperlipemia in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes
Type2 DiabetesProprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) has emerged over the past decade as a post-transcriptional regulator of the LDL receptor (LDL-R). PCSK9 acts as an endogenous natural inhibitor of the LDL-R pathway. Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) directed against PCSK9, such as Alirocumab, are the most common method of PCSK9 inhibition. The goal of the present study is to assess, in the context of type 2 diabetes, a situation associated with an increased post-prandial hyperlipemia, whether PCSK9 inhibition with Alirocumab affects postprandial intestinal lipoprotein metabolism.
Pilot Study on the Effects of a Plant-Strong Diet on Cardiovascular Risk Factors
HyperlipidemiasOverweight and Obesity1 moreThe purpose of this study is to conduct a preliminary test of the effectiveness of various educational interventions to promote adoption of a whole-food, plant-strong diet and reduce specific cardiovascular risk factors in Veterans, and subsequently perform a preliminary pilot study on whether this dietary approach will change plaque inflammation and endothelial function.
A Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Bempedoic Acid Plus Ezetimibe Fixed-Dose Combination...
HyperlipidemiasThe purpose of this study is to determine if Bempedoic Acid (BA) + Ezetimibe (EZE) in a fixed-dose combination (FDC) is effective and safe versus its individual components and placebo in patients with elevated LDL cholesterol treated with maximally tolerated statin therapy.
Phase IV Study to Evaluate the Effects of Statin Monotherapy or Statin / Ezetimibe Combination Therapy...
Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver DiseaseDyslipidemiasTo investigate the therapeutic effect of ezetimibe on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, the effect of rosuvastatin 5mg monotherapy and rosuvastatin 5mg / ezetimibe 10mg combination therapy n patients with hyperlipidemia and fatty liver will be compared and analyzed. This study included a total of 70 patients (35 per subgroup) for randomized controlled trials with prospective, open label, randomized, single-institution clinical trials. The drug will be maintained for a total of six months. The primary endpoint is the difference of liver fat change measured by MRI-PDFF in colocalized regions of interest within nine liver segments between two groups.
