Filter by:Almost all antipsychotics can induce dyslipidemia, but no treatment has been established. Vildagliptin can improve lipid levels in obese patients. The investigators conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled study to test the efficacy of vildagliptin for antipsychotic-induced dyslipidemia.
This clinical study aims to assess the efficacy of TOTUM-070, a mix of 5 plant extracts, on lipid metabolism in moderate hypercholesterolemic subjects. The hypothesis is that TOTUM-070, daily consumed, is superior to placebo for decrease of fasting blood LDL-cholesterol concentration (determined by ultracentrifugation method) after 24 weeks of consumption.
This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 2 dose-finding study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of obicetrapib as an adjunct to high-intensity statin therapy.
To investigate the safety and efficacy of K-877 Extended Release (ER) once daily for 52 weeks in the morning or evening in dyslipidema.The starting dose of the ER tablet will be 0.2 mg/day. If the efficacy is insufficient, it will investigate the safety and efficacy of 0.4 mg/day.
To investigate the efficacy and safety of K-877 Extended Release (ER) 0.2 mg/day or 0.4 mg/day (once daily) for 12 weeks in dyslipidemia, using K-877 Immediate Release (IR) 0.2 mg/day (twice daily) as a control.
The project was aimed to explore the associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of vitamin D receptor gene with specific circulating lipids in adult Chinese. The circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration was also tested to explore its interactions with SNPs in the associations.
Rationale: Patients with acute coronary syndromes are at an increased risk for recurrent adverse coronary events, particularly during the early period following their initial presentation. Early (in-hospital) initiation of high-intensity statins reduces the risk of recurrent events and is therefore recommended by the best current practice guidelines.(1,2) However, the delayed onset of action of statin therapy and given the frequent failure of patients to achieve the recommended LDL-C targets using statins alone (as per the current practice guidelines recommendations), might be placing large number of patients at increased risk during such a vulnerable period early after an ACS.(3) More rapid and effective reduction of LDL-C levels using combination therapy from the outset may therefore be beneficial in these patients. This hypothesis has been tested with combining Evolocumab and a statin in the recent EVOPACS study, in which this combination after ACS has shown to be safe and more effective in achieving LDL-C targets at 6 weeks compared to statin monotherapy.(4) However, Evolocumab (a PCSK9i) is an expensive drug which is not affordable by many healthcare systems in low- and middle-income countries. Ezetemibe, on the other hand, is a safe and a cheap drug that can prove to be extremely cost-effective if a meaningful and timely reduction in LDL-C levels can be achieved when combined with a statin early after an ACS. Study population Patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction, with baseline LDL-C levels not likely to achieve recommended targets on statin monotherapy. This is assumed to be with LDL-C level > 125 mg/dl for those not on lipid lowering therapy; or with LDL-C > 100 mg/dl on moderate intensity statin therapy at the time of presentation. Study design Prospective randomized controlled single-blinded trial. A sample size of 500 patients, 250 in each arm, was calculated to provide a power of 0.9 and an adjusted type 1 error as 0.05. Primary outcomes - Percentage of patients achieving target LDL-C levels (<70 mg/dl) at 6 weeks interval. (Efficacy endpoint) - Freedom from alanine transaminase elevation (ALT) more than 3 folds upper reference limit "URL" or statin associated muscle symptoms associated with CK elevation more than 4 folds URL. (Safety endpoint) Secondary outcomes - Percentage of patients achieving > 50% reduction of LDL-C and to levels below 70mg/dl at 6 weeks interval. - Percentage of LDL-C reduction at 6 weeks interval. - Reduction of high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) from baseline to 6 weeks interval. - Correlating statins efficacy to reduce LDL-C and likelihood to cause statins related adverse effects to genetic alleles of ABC [ATP Binding Cassette] types A1, G5 and G8, and of CYP450 isoenzymes. - MACE free survival at 1 year, (CV death; non fatal-MI; hospitalization for ACS, urgent unplanned revascularization and stroke).
To compare and evaluate the effects of LDL-C and Triglyceride (TG) control on the first dose Ezetimibe/Statin (Rosuvastatin 5 mg/Ezetimibe 10 mg) combination therapy compared to the average dose Statin (Rosuvastatin 10 mg) monotherapy in patients with Type 2 diabetes with hypertriglyceridemia (TG > 200 mg/dL).
This pilot study will examine whether an implementation strategy will improve delivery of evidence-based care for cardiovascular risk factors for people with serious mental illness.
