Filter by:A randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled parallel group clinical trial evaluating the effects of acute treatment with a PCSK9 inhibitor (alirocumab) versus placebo on low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in 100 high-risk patients presenting with STEMI and referred for primary PCI. The objective is to determine the effect of acute, rapid lowering of LDL cholesterol with alirocumab added to high dose statin therapy in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI. The hypothesis is that, in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI, rapid lowering of LDL cholesterol with a PCSK9 Inhibitor (alirocumab) initiated in the acute setting pre-PCI, will favourably affect LDL cholesterol concentrations compared with placebo.
The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the long term safety of PRALUENT in participants with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (heFH) or non-familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) participants at high or very high cardiovascular risk who completed the neurocognitive function study R727-CL-1532 (NCT02957682). The secondary objectives of the study were: - To evaluate the effect of PRALUENT on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) - To evaluate the effect of PRALUENT on other lipid parameters - To evaluate the effect of PRALUENT on gonadal steroid hormones
This is a genomic implementation project with ancillary studies to understand the impact on patients' health and well-being of returning genomic results to them and depositing those results in the medical record.
This is a Single Center, Randomized, Double-blind, Dose Escalation, Placebo Parallel Controlled Phaseâ… Clinical study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics with A Single Subcutaneous Injection of SHR-1209 in Healthy Subjects. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of a range of subcutaneous SHR-1209 in healthy subjects. Secondary objectives are to determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics(PD) profile of SHR-1209 in healthy subjects including assessment of immunogenicity.
The study evaluates if the relationship between total serum cholesterol is dependent on the total serum homocysteine. Fasting blood samples will taken from participants and two batteries of cognitive scales will be used to asses any cognitive decline.
Open-label study will titrate doses of intravenous atorvastatin and monitor respective LDL-C levels in hypercholesterolemic patients previously controlled on oral atorvastatin.
This clinical study will explore individual factors influencing statin pharmacokinetics in a cohort of 150 patients treated with atorvastatin.
The scientific aims of the project are to understand the genetic basis of Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH) in the Emirati population and estimate the overall prevalence of the disease. In addition, a clinical aim of the project is to explore the effectiveness of screening the relatives of individuals affected by FH and other lipid disorders ("cascade" screening) within Emirati families.
AZD8233 has not been evaluated in clinical studies previously. This is a first-in-human (FiH) study. This study will assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of AZD8233, following subcutaneous (SC) administration of single ascending dose (SAD) of AZD8233. This study will also investigate the pharmacodynamics (PD) of AZD8233 by investigating the effect of AZD8233 on levels of cholesterol and related biomarkers.
The objective of the trial is to evaluate a potential impact of food supplements with the short chain fatty acid propionate on blood LDL cholesterol level.
