Filter by:The main objective of this pilot study is to evaluate the effects of the Brazilian Cardioprotective Diet (DICA Br) supplemented or not with phytosterols and/or krill oil in patients with a probable or definitive diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) identified by the Dutch Lipid Clinic Network (Dutch MEDPED) criteria. In addition, the following will be considered secondary objectives: to perform participants´ complete sequencing of the exome; to evaluate the effects of the interventions on lipid profile; to identify subclasses of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol; to perform untargeted lipidomic analyses; to evaluate the frequency of mild, moderate and severe adverse events according to study groups; and to evaluate both implementation components and adherence rates to the protocol, aiming to design a larger randomized trial. In this pilot study, between 48 and 76 individuals will be randomly enrolled into four groups: 1) DICA Br adapted to FH (DICA-HF) + phytosterol placebo + krill oil placebo (control group); 2) DICA-HF + 2g/day of phytosterol + krill oil placebo; 3) DICA-HF + phytosterol placebo + 2g/day of krill oil; and 4) DICA-HF + 2g/day of phytosterol + 2g/day of krill oil. Primary outcomes will be LDL-cholesterol for groups phytosterol vs. placebo and lipoprotein(a) for groups krill oil vs. placebo after 120 days of follow up. World Health Organization Universal Trial Number (WHO-UTN): U1111-1296-7102
The purpose of this open-label, single arm, multicenter extension study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of inclisiran in participants with HeFH or HoFH who have completed the ORION-16 or ORION-13 studies.
The project is a national, prospective, multicenter, non-interventional pilot project of screening for the disease Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) in newborns in the Czech Republic. The main goal of the project is to methodically prepare, implement and evaluate a pilot project that will verify the suitability of the proposed procedure of early detection of Familial hypercholesterolaemia in such a way as to ensure the maximum positive impact on the health of the population and high cost-effectiveness of the whole process.
Familial hypercholesterolemia is the most common inherited disease of the lipid metabolism, however it remains underdiagnosed. Only 15 % of 30.000 possible patients have been found in Denmark. This quality assessing project will through a step wedge cluster randomized controlled trial evaluate establishment of a biochemistry interpretive comment on elevated LDL-C levels. The study will test if the comment results in an increase in referred patients to the lipid clinics of Southern Denmark as the primary endpoint, and as the secondary endpoint in more patients diagnosed with familial hypercholesterolemia. The project will run in totally 52 weeks and will in steps initiate the comment from the different laboratories in the Region of Southern Denmark.
This is an open-label study designed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of evinacumab, a fully human ANGPTL3 antibody, in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH), in a real-life setting in Canada. Eligible patients for this study are male and female adult patients with HoFH. Evinacumab will be added on top of the patient's background lipid-modifying therapy (LMT), including statins, ezetimibe, PCSK9 inhibitors, lomitapide or other lipid lowering therapies. This study will be conducted using an hybrid (on-site, foldable sites) approach. Patients will enter the current study, in an open-label treatment period, following their screening. This study will continue until reimbursement of evinacumab in Canada or for a maximum of 24 months. The end of study (EoS) visit will be scheduled 4 weeks after the last dose has been injected and will be followed by a 52-week follow-up.
Low-level, open-label, multicenter clinical trial to evaluate the effect of alirocumab on the volume, architecture and composition of atherosclerotic plaque in patients with Familial hypercholesterolemia from the SAFEHEART Registry. ARCHITECT study
Design, refine, and pilot the two implementation approaches using behavioral economics and then seek further feedback prior to the proposed clinical trial, consistent with these recommendations. Aim 1. Co-design both implementation strategies using behavioral economics in partnership with the Family Heart Foundation and key partners from diverse backgrounds. Aim 2. Pilot strategies with 20 patients with high cholesterol and/or with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) to ascertain feasibility, acceptability, appropriateness.
This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Obicetrapib in Participants with a History of Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HeFH).
VT-1001 is an open-label, phase 1b, single-ascending dose study that will evaluate the safety of VERVE-101 administered to patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH), atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), and uncontrolled hypercholesterolemia. VERVE-101 uses base-editing technology designed to disrupt the expression of the PCSK9 gene in the liver and lower circulating PCSK9 and LDL-C in patients with established ASCVD due to HeFH. This study is designed to determine the safety and pharmacodynamic profile of VERVE-101 in this patient population.
The study aims to investigate the effects of breastfeeding on lipid profile and cardiovascular risk markers in women with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) compared to women without FH. Women with and without FH who are pregnant or planning pregnancy will be recruited, and will be invited to repeated study visits from the end of pregnancy and through the first year after delivery. Blood samples and data on anthropometry, health, pregnancy, lifestyle and diet will be collected. Statin transfer into breast milk will also be measured in breast milk samples collected when the women end breastfeeding the child and start statin treatment.
