Active clinical trials for "Hyperlipoproteinemias"

The study is designed to evaluate the effect of Niacin/Laropiprant on postprandial lipoprotein metabolism, postprandial glucose metabolism, postprandial monocyte function, and postprandial biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction and inflammation.

Treatment of HIV with combination antiretroviral regimens frequently results in the suppression of HIV viral load, significant immune recovery, and delayed disease progression. However, treatment with these regimens, particularly protease inhibitors (PIs), has been associated with significant increases in cholesterol and triglycerides in HIV-infected adults and children. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of escalating doses of atorvastatin, a FDA-approved drug which lowers cholesterol and triglyceride levels, in HIV-infected children receiving stable antiretroviral regimens.

Determination of FH status by genetic testing in school age children who have demonstrated elevated cholesterol on baseline screening.

Patients with Type I Hyperlipoproteinemia (T1HLP) have a rare form of hypertriglyceridemia marked by significant chylomicronemia and recurrent episodes of acute pancreatitis. T1HLP is caused by a deficiency of lipoprotein lipase or one of its cofactors. Many patients are a challenge to treat, as the only effective therapy available is an extremely low fat diet. This diet is exceedingly difficult to follow, and despite adherence, many patients still have chylomicronemia and develop acute pancreatitis. Specific Aim: To determine the efficacy of a gastric and pancreatic lipase inhibitor, Orlistat, in reducing serum triglyceride levels in patients with T1HLP.

Coronary heart disease and stroke are two main causes of human deaths and is directly related to increased levels of plasma lipids.High total cholesterol and low high density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations are often associated with endothelium dysfunction and inflammation, which can be followed by atherosclerosis. Rhus coriaria L. (Rhus) with the public name of "Somagh" is a plant species in the anacardiaceae family that is used as a food supplement, spice in Middle East region (Iran, Turkey and Arabic countries). In a double blind randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial, the investigators want to evaluate the effects of Somagh (Rhus coriaria L.) on serum lipid levels of patients with hyperlipidemia.

The purpose of this study is to see if bemedoic acid (ETC-1002) is effective versus placebo in patients with high cardiovascular risk and elevated LDL cholesterol not adequately controlled by their current therapy.

A Randomized, Double-blind, Multi-center Phase III Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Telmisartan/Amlodipine and Rosuvastatin Co-administration in Hypertensive Patients with Hyperlipidemia

JS002 is a recombinant humanized anti-PCSK9 monoclonal antibody. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy, as well as immunogenicity of JS002 treated repeatedly in patients with hyperlipidemia when combined with statin therapy. In this study, two dose group (150 mg, 300 mg) were set up in this study. 750 subjects are plan to be enrolled (the study drug will be assigned to a 2:1 ratio of JS002 or placebo). Each subject required a maximum of 6 weeks of screening, 52 weeks of treatment, and 8 weeks of follow-up.

A Randomized Study of ALG-055009 Drug to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Single and Multiple Doses in Healthy Volunteers and Subjects with Hyperlipidemia

This study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics of DC371739 after a single-dose oral administration in healthy Chinese subjects, and to explore the maximum tolerated dose, also the pharmacokinetics of urine and feces.
