Filter by:Reaching active aging makes it important to implement new methods affecting the biological age of a person. Biochemical parameters of a blood test are aging biomarkers that are ones of the most accessible for testing. We know that, with age, there is increase in levels of LDL, triglycerides, homocysteine and other biomarkers relating the body state. Methods of extracorporeal hemocorrection showed good results in this area. For instance, the use of plasmapheresis is very effective during prophylaxis, treatment and rehabilitation after various diseases/injuries. The main effects of plasmapheresis are related to removal of endo- and exotoxins, including products of lipid peroxidation, and to draining effect as a result of a heavy flow of interstitial fluid containing products of pathometabolism into the blood stream within concentration gradient (by "dynamic equilibrium" in concentration of different substances in intracellular, interstitial and intravascular compartments). These effects are also related to release of receptors, their sensitization to their own neurohumoral regulation mechanisms, to insulin, in particular (as consequences, lower glucose tolerance, lower substrate glycation).
The overarching objective is to evaluate the relationship between diet and coronary artery calcification in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH). We will recruit adults with HeFH. They will have to complete questionnaires on diet, medication and lifestyle. Coronary artery calcification will be measured in each patient using a CT scan. Physiological and biochemical data will be collected.
Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH), a rare inherited disorder caused by bi-allelic mutations in the LDL Receptor pathway, is characterized by extremely elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) from birth and premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Our current knowledge about HoFH is disjointed and largely stems from relatively small case series and expert opinion. HICC (Homozygous FH International Clinical Collaborators) is a global consortium of clinicians who are contributing de-identified data of patients diagnosed with HoFH with the goal to advance our understanding of this rare disease.
The study is to assess the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy after 48 and 72 weeks with monthly (Q4W [<31 days]) dosing of subcutaneous (SC) LIB003 300 mg administered in patients with CVD or at high risk for CVD (including HoFH and HeFH) on stable diet and oral LDL-C lowering drug therapy who completed one of the LIB003 Phase 3 base studies.
This study is to assess LDL-C reductions at Week 24 and the mean of Weeks 22 and 24 with monthly Q4W (≤31 days) dosing of LIB003 300 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) compared to placebo in patients 18 years or older with Heterozygous FH on stable diet and oral LDL-C lowering drug therapy.
This study plans to enroll several patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, randomly assigned to different dose groups, and randomly receiving subcutaneous injection of IBI306150 mg or placebo every two weeks: or subcutaneous injection of IBI306 450mg every four weeks (n=49) or placebo (n=25) treatment, treatment lasted for 12 weeks. During randomization, the LDL-C level (<4.8mmol/L or ≥4.8mmol/L) observed during the screening period visit (VI), and whether ezetimibe was used for stratification. After 12 weeks, each group entered the 12-week open-period treatment, in which subjects in the IBI306 group continued to receive IBI306 treatment, and subjects in the placebo group stopped using placebo and received IBI306 treatment. The exploratory endpoint is the population pharmacokinetic characteristics of IBI306 in Chinese heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia population.
To evaluate the lipoprotein kinetics of subjects enrolled in the R1500-CL-1331 clinical trial (NCT02265952) to assess the mechanism by which the evinacumab may affect lipid levels in HoFH subjects.
This is a single arm, open label, multi centre phase III study to evaluate the efficacy and long term safety of lomitapide in paediatric patients with HoFH receiving stable LLT (including LA, when applicable) comprising of the following phases: - Screening Period (starting at Week 12, i.e. ≤12 weeks prior to Baseline for up to 6 weeks) - Stratified Enrolment and Start of Run in Period (starting at minimum at Week 6, i.e., 6 weeks prior to Baseline for a minimum of 6 weeks): - Efficacy Phase (starting at Baseline, i.e. Day [D] 0 for 24 weeks±3 days - Safety Phase (starting at Week 24±3 days for 80±1 weeks)
This was a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized trial in Japanese participants with history of coronary artery disease (CAD) or participants categorized in 'high risk' by JAS 2017 guideline, or Japanese participants with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) and elevated Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) despite maximum tolerated dose of statin(s) to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and PK of subcutaneous inclisiran injection(s).
This is a pivotal phase III study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inclisiran in adolescents with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) and elevated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).
