Active clinical trials for "Hyperlipoproteinemias"

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the effect of evolocumab, atorvastatin, and combination therapy on lipoprotein kinetics.

This study is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized study to access the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Bococizumab (PF-04950615; RN316) in subjects with hyperlipidemia receiving background statin therapy.

The purpose of this study is to compare the lipid lowering effects and clinical safety of a natural hypolipidemic compound, coenzyme A capsule with a marketed drug, fenofibrate, in Chinese patients with moderate dyslipidemia.

To evaluate efficacy and safety of YH16410 versus rosuvastatin and telmisartan monotherapies in patients with hypertension and hyperlipidemia

This is a single center, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy of AKCEA-ANGPTL3-LRx for reduction of triglyceride (TG) levels in participants with FCS.

A study to assess the effects of proprotein convertase subtilisin/ kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibition on the arterial wall inflammation in patients with elevated lipoprotein(a).

Randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, multicenter phase 3 trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of co-administrated temisartan/amlodipine and rosuvastatin in subjects with hypertension and hyperlipidemia.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of CJ-30060 compared with amlodipine/valsartan combination therapy and valsartan/rosuvastatin combination therapy in hypertensive patients with hyperlipidemia

The success of combination antiretroviral therapy heralded a revolution in the treatment of HIV in the mid-1990s. However, severe treatment-associated side effects have been observed including diabetes and increased cholesterol which are linked to premature heart attacks. This effect has been described among many regimens containing protease inhibitors (PIs), as well as non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs). Raltegravir is a new medicine which has been shown to be potent and efficacious in suppression of the HIV. This study hopes to determine if switching from a PI or NNRTI to raltegravir will decrease cholesterol in subjects with high cholesterol and well controlled HIV. In addition, the study aims to confirm that raltegravir is safe and well tolerated. It also seeks to confirm if raltegravir will have similar anti-HIV activity compared with the patient's previous regimen. The study will last 6 months and will involve 20 subjects. HIV-1 infected men and women on PIs or NNRTIs for at least 12 months before study entry with well controlled HIV will be recruited. Hypotheses: Patients with elevated lipid levels while on combination antiretroviral therapy with PIs or NNRTIs will experience an improvement in lipid levels after switching their PI or NNRTI to a raltegravir based regimen. Raltegravir will be safe and well tolerated. Raltegravir will have similar antiretroviral activity compared with the prior regimen. Primary Objective: To demonstrate an improvement in lipid profile (triglycerides or LDL) in subjects switched to raltegravir from PIs or NNRTIs at 2, 3, and 6 months after study entry. Study Design: Subjects will be given the option to switch from their current regimen to raltegravir at 400mg twice daily. Those who consent, will receive raltegravir provided by the study for 6 months. At entry, the subjects will undergo a complete physical exam and thereafter targeted exams at each visit. Labs will be drawn as part of clinical care at 2, 3, and 6 months. Some of the blood will be stored for later analysis. Also, the subjects will answer regular surveys on drug toxicity and quality of life. Their cholesterol level will be compared before and after the study. At the end of the study, the participants may choose to continue on raltegravir if they desire.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of SCH 900271 compared to placebo on the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) from baseline to 8 weeks of treatment in participants with primary hypercholesterolemia (familial and nonfamilial) or mixed hyperlipidemia. The study will also evaluate the effect of SCH 900271 on non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and various other lipids and lipoproteins. The safety of SCH 900271 in this participant population will also be evaluated.
