Filter by:The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety of MD-0727 in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and to determine the low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) lowering effect and dose-response of MD-0727 in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia.
To collect lipid-lowering response data with the use of simvastatin 40 mg tablet in patients with hypercholesterolemia.
To collect lipid-lowering response data with the use of simvastatin 40 mg tablet in patients with hypercholesterolemia.
24 week open label study to compare the treatment either with rosuvastatin or rosuvastatin plus initiatives to improve compliance. If the subject does not reach the EAS LDL-C treatment goal at week 12, rosuvastatin will be titrated from 10mg to 20mg.
In this study the effect of the switch to rosuvastatin from another statin (fluvastatin, pravastatin, simvastatin, atorvastatin) was evaluated in high-risk patients with and without evident CHD and LDL-C ≥ 3.2 mmol/l. This was done in a large observational study (TARGET) representing daily practice. Primary end points analysis was the percentage of patients reaching the target of LDL-C < 3.2 mmol/l. Secondary outcomes were the changes of LDL-C, HDL-C, TC, Triglycerides (TG) and TC/HDL-C-ratio from baseline.
In the context of australian general practice, to determine the efficacy and safety of ezetimibe 10mg/statin 40mg coadministration in patients with uncontrolled cholesterol receiving statin 40mg or more.
The investigational drugs administered in this study activate proteins called PPARs. Data in the scientific literature on PPARs, as well as animal data and early clinical data generated by GSK with these drugs, suggest that activation of PPARs may cause the body to increase its use of fatty acids for energy, and lead to a reduction in body fat. There are also data to suggest a role for PPARs in regulating lipid (e.g., cholesterol) levels and inflammation. These and other activities of PPARs are being further explored in this clinical study.
This study will assess and compare the efficacy and safety of valsartan and the combination of valsartan and simvastatin in patients with high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
This is a 105-week clinical study in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia on intensive Low Density Lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) lowering therapy intended to assess the affects of MK0524A on carotid intima media thickening using ultrasound compared to patients taking placebo. There will be 12 scheduled clinic visits involving review of medical history, physical exam, vital signs, laboratory testing, ultrasound imaging, and electrocardiograms.
The primary objective of the study is to compare the effect of rosuvastatin therapy plus compliance initiatives and rosuvastatin therapy alone for 12 months (52 weeks) on long-term cumulative direct and indirect disease-related costs during the 36 month.
