Filter by:Dyslipidemia is highly prevalent among patients with HIV infection and contributes to the increased cardiovascular disease risk in this patient population. Atorvastatin lowers plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels and is used for prevention of artherosclerotic disease. Raltegravir, an HIV integrase inhibitor, could be one of the preferred antiretroviral agents in HIV patients with dyslipidemia because it has a beneficial lipid profile. Theoretically, no clinically relevant drug interaction is expected between atorvastatin and raltegravir. However, atorvastatin and raltegravir share similar metabolic pathways which could be relevant in the occurrence of pharmacokinetic interactions. In order to be able to recommend raltegravir and atorvastatin concomitant use, a pharmacokinetic study in healthy volunteers is proposed.
This is an open-label, randomized, two treatment, two sequences, two periods crossover study, using a crossover 2x2 design, where each subject will be randomly assigned to reference or test formulation, in order to evaluate if both formulations are bioequivalent.
Alirocumab (SAR236553/REGN727) is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9). Primary Objective of the study: To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels after 24 weeks of treatment in comparison with placebo. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the effect of alirocumab in comparison with placebo on LDL-C at other time points - To evaluate the effects of alirocumab on other lipid parameters - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab
Bioequivalence study comparing test Acotral® ezetimibe 10 mg tablet manufactured by Laboratorios Phoenix, with a reference comparator Zetia® ezetimibe 10 mg tablet of Merck/Schering-Plough Pharmaceuticals. The CRO Clinigene Bangalore, will conduct the study. Fifty two healthy adult subjects who have satisfied the inclusion and exclusion criteria and given their informed consent will be entered into the study. They will be fasted and receive one tablet by mouth in accordance with a randomisation list and blood samples will be taken at specified intervals over the ensuing 3 days. Between 14 and 21 days later, subjects will receive the opposite tablet and the clinical process repeated. Subjects will be continuously monitored while in the trial clinic and at ambulatory visits with regular measurements of vital signs and questioned for adverse events. Drug concentrations will be analysed and these results compared to ascertain bioequivalence by applying statistical methods to the pharmacokinetic data; this information and all safety data will be formally reported.
This study is non-interventional study of patients who are treated with any HMGCoA reductase inhibitors (rosuvastatin, simvastatin,atorvastatin and fluvastatin) available in Bosnia and Herzegovina for at least 6 months. Data collection for each patient will take place at a single visit. The investigators will complete Case Report Form (CRF) with patient's demographic, the presence of the factors for high cardiovascular risk, current treatment, cholesterol value as well as with further treatment decision.
The principal objective of this study is to investigate the dose-effect of the Limicol food supplement on LDL-cholesterol level in moderate hypercholesterolaemia subjects.
The objective of this follow-up retrospective study is to evaluate the long term efficacy and safety of rosuvastatin in reducing lipid parameters in clinical practice.
This is a multi-centre non-interventional study of patients who are treated with any HMGCoA reductase inhibitor available in Croatia (rosuvastatin, simvastatin, atorvastatin and fluvastatin) for at least 6 months. All HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors must be prescribed in accordance with SmPCs approved in Croatia. Data collection for each patient will take place at a single visit. The investigator will complete a Case Report Form with the patient's demographics, the presence of the factors for high cardiovascular risk, current treatment, cholesterol values as well as with further treatment decision.
This is a single-arm, phase IV, open-label, prospective, non interventional study to evaluate the efficacy, tolerability and safety of rosuvastatin administered for 24 weeks in approximately 900 Greek subjects with hypercholesterolemia under normal clinical practice.
The purpose of this study is to assess the long term safety of Crestor.
