Filter by:Familial Hypercholesterolemia is a common cause of premature coronary heart disease, it is present in 1 per 500 to 1 per 250 people of the general population. Studies on families of Hypercholesterolemia have shown that children with Hypercholesterolemia have a major increase in risk of coronary heart disease after the age of 20. The difference between Hypercholesterolemia and normal children in their atherogenic profil begin at the age of Nowadays , systematic screening techniques are not well implemented whereas their are clear World health organization guidelines. International studies show treatment must be initiated early as at the age of eight years old. In pediatry, Parents can be reluctant to practice blood test on their children. In order to allow more patients to be diagnosed and treated early enough to prevent major complications we need to find an non invasive test. The main objective is to define the level of detection of cholesterol in saliva with two enzymatic tests. Furthermore we aim to evaluate the performance of salivary detection of cholesterol in children.
High cholesterol (a type of fat in humans blood) may be one factor that can lead to heart disease. If people have higher cholesterol, it is possible that kefir (a food similar to yogurt) may help to control blood cholesterol levels.
The primary objective for Part A of the study is to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of evinacumab in pediatric patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH). The primary objective for Part B of the study is to demonstrate a reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) by evinacumab in pediatric (5 to 11 years of age) patients with HoFH. The secondary objective for Part A of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of evinacumab administered intravenous (IV) in pediatric patients with HoFH. The secondary objectives for Part B of the study are: - To evaluate the effect of evinacumab on other lipid parameters (ie, apolipoprotein B (Apo B), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), lipoprotein a [Lp(a)]) in pediatric patients with HoFH - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of evinacumab administered IV in pediatric patients with HoFH - To assess the PK of evinacumab in pediatric patients with HoFH - To assess the immunogenicity of evinacumab in pediatric patients with HoFH over time - To evaluate patient efficacy by mutation status
JS002 is a recombinant humanized Anti- PCSK9 monoclonal antibody; This is a phase Ia, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of a single subcutaneous injection of JS002 in healthy subjects. In this study, the dose ascending design includes five dose level cohorts (15 mg, 50 mg, 150 mg, 300 mg, and 450 mg) administered by subcutaneous injection, and three intravenous administration cohorts (15 mg, 150 mg, and 450 mg). Each cohort will enroll 8 to 12 subjects (distribution of study drug and placebo in a 3:1 ratio). The duration of the study is 84-day per subjects.
IBI306 is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds proprotein convertase substilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK-9), preventing its interaction with the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol receptor (LDL-R) and thereby restoring LDL-R recycling and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) uptake. In the phase I study, IBI306 was shown to be safe and well tolerated. There was robust reduction in LDL-C, Apo(B), non-HDL-C and lipoprotein (a) in healthy subjects. This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, repeated-dosing, multiple ascending dose trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel PCSK-9 anti-body, IBI306, in Chinese patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia.
This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AK102 in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH).The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of AK102 in patients with HeFH.
This is a phase II, open-label, non-controlled, extended study. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of AK102 in combination with basic lipid-lowering therapy in patients with hypercholesterolemia. Subjects who have participated in the AK102 studies and have completed the last visit,and who, in the opinion of the investigator, are likely to benefit from continued treatment will be enrolled in this study.
This is a first-in-human,randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single dose escalation, phase 1 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK/PD and immunogenicity of AK102 administered subcutaneously in healthy subjects. Subjects will be randomized into 4 planned single dose escalation cohorts or placebo cohort.
Evaluation of the clinical profile (lipid efficacy, safety and PK) across a number of doses of CIVI 007, a PCSK9 inhibitor. Patients to be evaluated will be on a stable background of statin therapy with or without ezetimibe.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of co-administrated Rosuvastatin/Ezetimibe and Telmisartan/Amlodipine in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and essential hypertension.
