Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test if having a Veteran peer health coach will improve blood pressure control among Veterans with high blood pressure and at least one other Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor. The intervention will deliver brief health messages, discuss goal setting, and action planning around health behavior changes shown to decrease CVD risk, including healthy diet, regular to moderate-intensity physical activity, and smoking cessation. Facilitators, barriers, and costs of the intervention will be determined.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety tolerability, and PK profile of K-312 and its metabolites in healthy Japanese and non-Japanese adults.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of NK-104-CR with Placebo and Livalo® on the reduction of LDL-C and to evaluate the safety of NK-104-CR in patients with primary hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia
Front-line clinicians cannot currently test for an individual participant whether symptoms experienced are the pharmacological result of a statin or due to other phenomena. In this trial, participants who have previously ceased statins due to side effects will be offered the opportunity to undergo twelve randomly ordered 1-month periods. There will be four periods of no medication, four periods of placebo and four periods of statin. The placebo and the statin pills will be identical in appearance. Participants will record on a daily basis side-effects experienced. At the end of the study, the one-month sessions are sorted into the order shown above. The participant can then observe directly how much of the increase in symptoms seen with statin is also seen with placebo. 1. Hypothesis 1: that >30% of participants enrolling for the study will complete it. 2. Hypothesis 2: Overall >50% of symptom burden is nocebo rather than pharmacological 3. The investigators will define the Nocebo proportion of side effects. 4. Hypothesis 3: that the majority of participants, at 6 months after completion, will either be taking statins or have declined statins for reasons other than perceived side effects.
The purpose of this study is to see if ETC-1002 (bempedoic acid) is safe and well-tolerated versus placebo in patients with high cardiovascular risk and elevated LDL cholesterol that is not adequately controlled by their current therapy.
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks of subcutaneous evolocumab (AMG 145) in combination with statin therapy (atorvastatin) on percent change from baseline in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in diabetic adults with hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia.
The purpose of this research study is to measure the amount of atorvastatin and ETC-1002 in the blood, to determine how ETC-1002 affects the level of LDL-cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and other markers of health and disease in blood and urine, and to see how ETC-1002 is tolerated in the body compared to placebo when added to stable atorvastatin 80 mg background therapy in statin-treated patients.
An open-label study of volanesorsen (ISIS 304801) administered subcutaneously to participants with FCS.
The purpose of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetics and safety of a controlled release (CR) version of pitavastatin (also referred to as NK-104) to immediate release (IR) pitavastatin in healthy adult volunteers.
The aim is to investigate the effects of yoghurt drinks containing two doses of plant stanol ester either with or without added camelina oil on the serum cholesterol levels in moderately hypercholesterolemic subjects
