Filter by:The investigators are piloting a 3 month community-based lifestyle medicine program that incorporates experiences and education in urban agriculture, nutrition, culinary arts, and physical fitness to test the hypothesis whether this improves clinical and socio-behavioral outcomes of participants with Cardiovascular Kidney Metabolic (CKM) syndrome (high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, heart disease, and obesity) in comparison to the current medical care model (usual care) or providing healthy produce (medically tailored groceries).
VT-20101 is an Open-label, Phase 1b, Single-ascending dose study that will evaluate the safety of VERVE-201 administered to patients with Refractory Hypercholesterolemia. VERVE-201 uses base-editing technology designed to inactivate the expression of the ANGPTL3 gene in the liver and lower circulating low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). This study is designed to determine the safety and pharmacodynamic profile of VERVE-201 in this patient population.
Hypercholesterolemia is recognized as the major driver for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. To help address this in our community, Atlantic Medical Group (AMG) formed a lipid workgroup chaired by Robert D. Fishberg, MD, and Jeffrey N. Feldman, MD. The overarching goal of the lipid workgroup is to enhance the treatment of lipid disorders in those patients with abnormal lipid levels by improving access to resources at the primary care practice level and specialty level. We aim to develop a model for primary and secondary prevention that integrates guidelines for treatment at the practice level. Our primary objective is to identify high-risk patients by utilizing the electronic health record and partnering with patients' primary care providers to provide comprehensive medical management.
This placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, Phase 3 study is being conducted in adult participants with high-risk atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) who are not adequately controlled by their maximally tolerated lipid-modifying therapy, to assess the impact of the obicetrapib 10 mg + ezetimibe 10 mg FDC daily on coronary plaque and inflammation characteristics, evaluated using cardiovascular computed tomography angiography (CCTA).
The objective of this study is to investigate the prevalence of elevated Lp(a) in the working general population.
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending doses (MAD) of SGB-3403 when single administered subcutaneously to healthy volunteers and multiple administered subcutaneously to subjects with elevated LDL-C to evaluate the safety, tolerance, PK, and PD.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose (SAD) study of SYH2053 when administered subcutaneously to subjects with normal and elevated LDL-C.
This study investigates whether using Double Filtration Plasmapheresis (DFPP) could improve the overall health of adults through removing inflammatory cytokines, lipids and toxic metal ions from peripheral blood. It's also postulated that DFPP could boost immune cells through removing certain inflammatory cytokines and blood lipids.
This trial aims to evaluate the impact of clinical pharmacists' pharmacogenomics-guided choice and statin titration for managing hyperlipidaemia. The central hypotheses of this trial are (1) clinical pharmacists' pharmacogenomics-guided choice and titration of statins will lead to a more significant reduction in LDL-c; (2) lower incidence of myopathies with the use of statins for hyperlipidaemia management over 12 months compared to usual care by doctors alone. Active follow-up and titration should occur over the first six months. However, the participants will be followed up to 12 months to confirm the sustained LDL level attainment.
Developed nations worldwide are currently enduring a health crisis, as chronic diseases continue to decrease quality of life and promote additional disease states or even death for much of the population. Rural populations are at a particular disadvantage, as they lack access to health clubs, wellness programs and similar resources that are more available in urban areas. Although pharmaceutical therapies have continued to show therapeutic advancements, the rates of disease onset and death from chronic disease has not seen similar improvements, and in fact continue to worsen. Excitingly, significant evidence has been published demonstrating an affordable, effective treatment to directly treat and prevent these chronic diseases, but few have demonstrated successful implementation of this therapy, which is improved lifestyle. Specifically, physical activity and healthy body composition are powerful therapeutics that have been demonstrated to effectively combat and prevent chronic diseases. Additionally, improving these lifestyle factors are often more effective than pharmaceutical interventions without the wide range of side effects. Unfortunately, barriers exist on multiple tiers in the practice of family medicine that demote the implementation of lifestyle medicine. To better serve patients at risk of, or suffering from chronic disease, the investigators are seeking to establish a lifestyle medicine prescription program for rural West Virginia. This program will provide patient education on the benefits of physical activity, body composition, and help patients identify strategies to implement healthy lifestyle choices that can be sustainable for the long-term. Patients will be advised on local opportunities to increase physical activity (yoga studio, martial arts, fitness facilities, aquatic center, etc.) and provided access to the facilities they are most likely to adhere to regularly. They will also be provided training on exercise techniques, equipment, and facilities to increase familiarity and comfort in these settings.
