Filter by:The study is ongoing to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHR-1209 in patients with hypercholesterolemia and hyperlipemia.
A research study that is evaluating a low dose of an FDA approved statin medication in comparison to several commercially available over the counter dietary supplements which are marketed for cholesterol health. The study is comparing their effect on LDL cholesterol. LDL-cholesterol is low-density cholesterol and is sometimes referred to as "bad" cholesterol. Participants must live in Ohio and have a documented elevated LDL cholesterol level between 70-189mg/dL, must not currently be taking a statin or one of the dietary supplements included in the trial. Participants willing to discontinue a prohibited supplement for 4 weeks prior to enrollment will be allowed to participate. Trial participation is 4 weeks. Study medication will be provided at no charge. There will be 2 visits which include a lab draw at any Cleveland Clinic laboratory. Participants will be randomized (like a coin flip) to be in one of 8 possible groups: Rosuvastatin, Fish oil, Cinnamon, Garlic, Turmeric, Plant sterol, Red yeast rice, or placebo. The study will enroll 200 participants.

The overarching objective is to evaluate the relationship between diet and coronary artery calcification in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH). We will recruit adults with HeFH. They will have to complete questionnaires on diet, medication and lifestyle. Coronary artery calcification will be measured in each patient using a CT scan. Physiological and biochemical data will be collected.
Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH), a rare inherited disorder caused by bi-allelic mutations in the LDL Receptor pathway, is characterized by extremely elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) from birth and premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Our current knowledge about HoFH is disjointed and largely stems from relatively small case series and expert opinion. HICC (Homozygous FH International Clinical Collaborators) is a global consortium of clinicians who are contributing de-identified data of patients diagnosed with HoFH with the goal to advance our understanding of this rare disease.
This study is to assess LDL-C reductions at Week 52 with monthly (Q4W [≤31 days]) dosing of LIB003 (lerodalcibep) 300 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) compared to placebo in patients with CVD, or at high risk for CVD, on a stable diet and oral LDL-C lowering drug therapy
The study is to assess the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy after 48 and 72 weeks with monthly (Q4W [<31 days]) dosing of subcutaneous (SC) LIB003 300 mg administered in patients with CVD or at high risk for CVD (including HoFH and HeFH) on stable diet and oral LDL-C lowering drug therapy who completed one of the LIB003 Phase 3 base studies.
This study is to assess LDL-C reductions at Week 24 and the mean of Weeks 22 and 24 with monthly Q4W (≤31 days) dosing of LIB003 300 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) compared to placebo in patients 18 years or older with Heterozygous FH on stable diet and oral LDL-C lowering drug therapy.
Comparison of LDL-C reductions at Week 12 of monthly (Q4W[≤ 31 days]) dosing of LIB003 300 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) to Q4W dosing of evolocumab (Repatha) 420 mg and alirocumab (Praluent) 300 mg in patients with CVD or at high risk for CVD on a stable diet and high intensity statin and other LDL-C-lowering drug therapy.
Primary Objective: Test feasibility and acceptability of a 24-week community-based lifestyle intervention to improve cardiovascular health among African American males. Secondary Objectives: 1) Navigate participants to establish primary care and address social and patient activation needs that present barriers to wellness; 2) Examine changes in cardiovascular health as per American Heart Association Life's Simple 7 Metrics including blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose, smoking, body mass index, physical activity and dietary intake (1); and 3) Increase African American male participation in clinical trials.
