A Clinical Trial to evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Tolerability of CKD-386(5)
Adding cottonseed oil to the diet has been shown to improve cholesterol profiles and other markers of chronic disease risk in both healthy and at-risk adults. However, CSO has only been tested in the context of high-fat diets. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the health effects of lower amounts of cottonseed oil (CSO) added to the diet in adults at increased risk for cardiovascular disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How do different amounts of CSO in the diet affect fasting cholesterol profiles and markers of liver function? - How do different amounts of CSO in the diet affect fasting and post-meal markers of lipid metabolism (i.e. triglycerides) and glycemic control (i.e. blood sugar and insulin)? - How do different amounts of CSO in the diet affect fasting and post-meal markers of chronic disease risk factors such as oxidative stress, inflammation, coagulation potential, and appetite control? Participants will be asked to: - Consume provided breakfast shakes and snacks daily for 28-days. - Attend three weekly short visits for fasting blood draws, body measurements, and collect the next week of study materials. - Attend two longer (5.5 h) testing visits which include eating a standardized breakfast meal and having blood drawn periodically before and after breakfast. Researchers will compare CSO LOW, CSO MID, CSO HIGH, and Control groups (receiving a mixture of oils) to see if lower doses of CSO in the diet impart the same health benefits as previously shown with high doses of CSO.
This study is a large-scale, prospective, multi-center, and non-interventional observation study to observe blood pressure and blood lipid changes and safety during administration of olomax tablets for 24 weeks in hypertensive patients with dyslipidemia.
This is a multisite clinical trial of healthy lifestyle programs for middle-to-older-aged adults (50 -74 years) to improve their weight and, therefore, reduce risk for chronic disease. This study will investigate whether a proven, self-directed video-based lifestyle program can be significantly enhanced with the assistance of a coach via videoconference or phone to help people as they adopt healthy eating and exercise behaviors. Additionally, the study will examine what factors might explain why some people achieve better outcomes than others. Understanding this can help to tailor the program to an individual for personalized care in the future. Importantly, this study aims to demonstrate how readily a digital lifestyle program, with or without remote coaching, can be seamlessly delivered to patients at home via the patient portal of their electronic health record. This practical use of existing telehealth tools could be a feasible and effective means to offer behavioral treatments during routine medical care.
Hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia are common internal diseases, and all diseases are atherosclerosis risk factors. Previous studies applied color fundus photography to analyze retinal vascular changes (including exudation, hemorrhage, neovascularization, etc.) in patients with hypertension or diabetes, but the examination results could not be quantified. This study intends to apply optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) to examine retinal vessels. This method has the following advantages: 1) It can quantify vascular changes, and 2) It is noninvasive and reproducible for patients' follow-up. This study was designed to investigate retinal vascular changes in patients with hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia on OCTA. We will collect the patients' general information (gender, age), comorbidities, medications, blood lipids, blood glucose, carotid ultrasound, ankle-brachial index, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, color fundus photography, and OCTA results. We will follow up with the patients for five years and conduct the mentioned examinations once a year. We will also investigate the correlation between systemic atherosclerosis (such as coronary artery stenosis, and carotid artery stenosis) and retinal vasculopathy in patients with these diseases.
A clinical trial to compare and evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of CKD-391
The present study aims to examine the clinical practice of modifying the dose of lipid-lowering therapy in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), who have LDL-C > 70 mg/dl despite statin treatment.
The study is prospective, open-label, randomized, single-center study involving patients admitted on an emergency basis with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) clinic who underwent PCI of an infarct-related artery (IRA) and had intermediate coronary artery lesions (50-70% stenosis diameter) and elevated LDL-C ( > 1.4 mmol/l) despite statin therapy at the highest dosage. Patients who showed high compliance and did not reach the target LDL-C values 1 month after the development of ACS on the 2nd visit will be randomized into two groups of 60 patients each. Group 1 - taking PCSK9 inhibitors (Alirocumab 150 mg by subcutaneous injection once every 2 weeks or Evolocumab 140 mg by subcutaneous injection once every 2 weeks - open-label prescription of drugs) while taking Atorvastatin at a dose of 80 mg / day. Group 2 - receiving Ezetimibe at a dose of 10 mg in combination with Atorvastatin 80 mg / day.
Elevation in low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (LDL-C) is a causal risk factor for atherosclerotic established cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Reduction of LDL-C with statins has been clearly demonstrated as a robust and cost-effective way of reducing the burden of ASCVD in individuals at risk. ASCVD is the leading cause of death and disability in Brazil and therefore prevention guidelines recommend LDL-C reduction with the aim of reducing disease burden in individuals at risk. Studies have shown a clear hiatus on awareness and treatment of cholesterol in Brazil. Thus, it became imperative to develop knowledge translation projects aiming at bridging the gap between science and clinical practice and ultimately leading to better outcomes. Cluster randomized clinical trials are the highest quality type of clinical research to test educational and active interventions aimed at changing behaviors or clinical practices. Therefore, this study is a pragmatic cluster randomized trial to assess the effect of a digitally enabled quality improvement intervention on LDL-C control in atherosclerotic established cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) patients.
