Filter by:The primary aim of the present study was to elucidate the effect of a combination of functional foods on the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and on the distribution of the lipoprotein subclasses in subjects with hypercholesterolemia. To accomplish the latter, subjects that met the inclusion criteria and had mild hypercholesterolemia (Total cholesterol >200mg/dL, and LDL-C >130mg/dL <190 mg/dL) were recruited for double-blind, parallel, controlled dietary intervention study. After two weeks of dietary standardization with an isocaloric diet, subjects were randomized and allocated to either placebo or a dietary portfolio treatment for two months. The secondary endpoints were the size of the different lipoprotein subclasses, total cholesterol levels, high density -lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels, apolipoprotein B, triglycerides, total/HDL-C ratio, apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A ratio, and anthropometric measurements.
This study is designed to help identify patients with HoFH due to mutations in the LDLR as confirmed by genotyping.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate prospectively the impact of different system alerts on the prescription of lipid panels to pediatric Geisinger patients (9-11 years old), as per the now-universal guidelines. This will help quantify the relative effectiveness of different alerts and combinations of alerts on provider prescribing behavior and patient uptake of screening.
In this study, there are two study medicines: NNC0385-0434 (the new medicine being tested) and placebo (a 'dummy' medicine). Participants will only get one of these medicines - which one is decided by chance. The study medicine for each person is chosen by a computer. A dummy medicine (placebo) looks like the study medicine but has no effect on the body. The dummy medicine needs to be used in the study to find out if the study medicine works as expected. The dose of the study medicines that participants receive will depend on which group they get into. The study has 4 groups of 8-15 participants in each. Each group will get a different dose of NNC0385-0434 or placebo. Participants and the study doctor will not know which of the study medicine/dose participants will get. However, if a participant's safety is at risk, the study doctor will be told in order to decide the future treatment. NNC0385-0434 may help to clear cholesterol from the blood. When there is less cholesterol circulating in the blood over a long period of time, then there is less risk of arteries (blood vessels) being clogged or developing diseases of the heart and blood vessels. Each participant will get one injection under the skin and will be in the study for about 4 months.
To compare the safety, tolerability and LDL-C response after 24 Weeks of monthly (every 4 weeks [Q4W]) subcutaneous (SC) dosing of LIB003 300 mg with monthly (Q4W) SC dosing of 420 mg evolocumab (Repatha®) in patients with HoFH on stable diet and oral LDL-C-lowering drug therapy
A study to evaluate safety and efficacy of IBI306 in subjects with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia.
This 8 weeks, prospective, single center, randomized, open-label, parallel-group, non-inferiority study was performed from October 2015 to April 2018. This study as designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 10mg of the generic formulation (rosuvastatin, ROVASRO®) compared to the reference formulation (rosuvastatin, CRESTOR®) in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and complex dyslipidemia.
AK102 is being developed for the treatment of HoFH. The study will be conducted in 2 parts, part 1 is open label, single arm study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of PCSK9 inhibitor AK102, and part 2 is double blind, randomized, placebo controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PCSK9 inhibitor AK102. The treatment period will last 12 week.
The broad, long-term aims of this scope of work are to investigate the effects of the Pritikin Program to the general population. The study will test the effects on individuals from the community with dysfunctional lipids, blood pressure and glycemic control. To assess the effectiveness of the Pritikin Program in the community, the effects of Pritikin lifestyle intervention on overall health will be investigated.
This study evaluated whether uninsured patients living at or below 200% of the federal poverty level who received enhanced, culturally-relevant, integrated behavioral health services were more likely to improve health outcomes after 12 months compared to similar patients receiving usual care from Hope Family Health Center (HFHC), a charitable community clinic. The study employed a randomized control trial (RCT) design where intervention participants receiving integrated care at HFHC were compared to control participants receiving usual care at HFHC. Patients were placed in each group using simple random assignment. Demographic and health outcome data were collected from intervention and control participants at baseline. Health outcome data were subsequently collected at 6-month and 12-month follow-up points.
