Filter by:This study aims to assess the postprandial triglyceride response to the ingestion of a high-fat meal with co-ingestion of either galactose, or glucose.
This study evaluates the safety and pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions of omega-3 and atorvastatin in healthy male volunteers. Half of the participants will receive omega-3 for 16 days to be steady state of omega-3 and followed by omega-3 and atorvastatin in combination for 7 days. The other half will receive Atorvastatin for 7 days to be steady state of Atorvastatin, and followed by Atorvastatin and Omega-3 in combination for 16 days.
During dietary fat absorption, the gut packages the majority of the fats into lipid particles that are secreted into blood circulation. The gut is also capable of storing a considerable amount of fats that can be released at a later time upon receiving certain stimulus signals. One of the signals is glucose ingestion. This protocol examines blood lipid responses to a glucose drink. Participants drink a fatty formula and 5 hours later drink either a glucose solution or water (as control), in one of two randomized study visits. Blood lipid levels are monitored throughout the study period.
To investigate the therapeutic effect of ezetimibe on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, the effect of rosuvastatin 5mg monotherapy and rosuvastatin 5mg / ezetimibe 10mg combination therapy n patients with hyperlipidemia and fatty liver will be compared and analyzed. This study included a total of 70 patients (35 per subgroup) for randomized controlled trials with prospective, open label, randomized, single-institution clinical trials. The drug will be maintained for a total of six months. The primary endpoint is the difference of liver fat change measured by MRI-PDFF in colocalized regions of interest within nine liver segments between two groups.
Some of the fat (triglyceride) from the food humans eat gets stored in the bowel. This triglyceride can then be released into the blood when another meal is consumed or in response to hormones. How the gut hormone glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) releases the triglyceride from the gut is not known. The research team in this study is interested in finding out how teduglutide (a degradation resistant form of GLP-2) releases stored triglyceride from the gut by evaluating how blood lipoproteins respond to teduglutide in healthy individuals.
It is well known that medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) and diacylglycerols (DGs) have effects on lowering circulating triglycerides (TGs). In this study, the mixture of MCTs and DGs (MCDGs) examined whether it has beneficial effects on postprandial lipids metabolism compared to long-chain triglycerides (TGs).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether psyllium is effective in reducing flushing due to niacin and also to measure the effect of niacin on cholesterol levels.
This is a single center, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy of AKCEA-ANGPTL3-LRx for reduction of triglyceride (TG) levels in participants with FCS.
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) has emerged over the past decade as a post-transcriptional regulator of the LDL receptor (LDL-R). PCSK9 acts as an endogenous natural inhibitor of the LDL-R pathway. Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) directed against PCSK9, such as Alirocumab, are the most common method of PCSK9 inhibition. The goal of the present study is to assess, in the context of type 2 diabetes, a situation associated with an increased post-prandial hyperlipemia, whether PCSK9 inhibition with Alirocumab affects postprandial intestinal lipoprotein metabolism.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Bempedoic Acid (BA) + Ezetimibe (EZE) in a fixed-dose combination (FDC) is effective and safe versus its individual components and placebo in patients with elevated LDL cholesterol treated with maximally tolerated statin therapy.
