Filter by:A phase 3 study to evaluate efficacy and safety of Co-administered HGP0904, HGP0608 and HGP0816 in Patients with Hypertension and Dyslipidemia
Primary Objective: To evaluate the effect of irbesartan/atorvastatin fixed-dose combination comparing to each irbesartan and atorvastatin on flow mediated dilation change in type 2 diabetic patients diagnosed with hyperlipidemia, hypertension. Secondary Objective: To evaluate efficacy of blood pressure and hyperlipidemic factors of irbesartan/atorvastatin fixed-dose combination in type 2 diabetic patients diagnosed with hyperlipidemia and hypertension, with adequately controlled blood glucose levels in groups.
The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of 8-week treatment with omega-3-acid ethyl esters on the lipid and lipoprotein profile in the blood in hyperlipidemic patients receiving a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor by use of HPLC in comparison with the control group of patients not treated with omega-3-acid ethyl esters.
The study is divided into 2 parts. The first part of the study will be double-blinded and will last for 24 weeks. During this time, participants will be randomized in a ratio of 2:1 to receive either evolocumab once monthly (QM) or placebo QM. The second part of the study is a 24-week open label extension period. During this time all participants will receive evolocumab QM. The clinical hypothesis is that subcutaneous evolocumab QM will be well tolerated and will result in greater reduction of low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), defined as percent change from baseline at Week 24, compared with placebo QM in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive participants with hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia.
Given preliminary data in animal (proprietary data) have shown that XXS (a mixture of natural polyphenolic extracts of edible plants) has a significant and favourable effect on oxidative stress notably with a decrease in certain markers of oxidative stress and on plasma lipid parameters, the investigator proposes to study the effect of 6 months of treatment with XXS in a controlled study against placebo in a population of persons presenting a lipid profile at the upper limit of normal.
The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of omega-3-acid ethyl esters (TAK-085) on vascular endothelial function when administered for 8 weeks, as measured by FMD, in patients with hyperlipidemia.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the superior efficacy of NK-104-CR 8 mg daily compared to Livalo® IR 4 mg daily on fasting serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reduction and to evaluate the comparative safety of NK-104-CR 8 mg daily to Livalo® IR 4 mg daily after long-term treatment
This multicenter multinational prospective two-arm matched-pair observational study aims to establish a prospective comparison of active lipoprotein apheresis treatment approved and conducted according to German guidelines for the indication of elevated Lp(a) versus a maximum tolerated lipid-lowering therapy as standard care. Due to the prospective character and the inclusion of a control arm, this will be the first clinical study that can confirm the relevance of the established approach to use lipoprotein apheresis in those subjects and its effects to reduce the individual cardiovascular risk. The optimized management of subjects in the control group (not receiving lipoprotein apheresis) will also help to clarify the controversial issue, to which extent intensive medical care per se can influence the occurence of subsequent cardiovascular events. Primary objective of the trial is to evaluate the clinical benefit of Lp(a) reduction using lipoprotein apheresis on myocardial infarction, PCI, CABG, fatal and non- fatal stroke, transient ischemic attack, interventional or surgical revascularization of peripheral arteries and death from cardiovascular disease. The primary objective of this study evaluates the clinical benefit of weekly lipoprotein apheresis in subjects with progressive cardiovascular disease, as accepted by the German Federal Joint Committee as indication for subjects with elevated Lp(a). Comparator will be matched subjects under maximum tolerated lipid lowering therapy without access to lipoprotein apheresis treatment. The clinical benefit will be defined as the reduction of the composite endpoint of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as either myocardial infarction, PCI, CABG, fatal and non-fatal stroke, transient ischemic attack or death from cardiovascular disease over a period of at least 2 years after completion of visit 1b and until at least 60 events of the primary end-point occurred in group B. If the number of at least 60 documented primary endpoint events within 2 years of the completion of enrolment did not occur, the study will continue until this number of primary endpoint events has accumulated.
Review of clinical characteristics of patients who are prescribed Repatha® and how their treatment is managed.
Patients with Type I Hyperlipoproteinemia (T1HLP) have a rare form of hypertriglyceridemia marked by significant chylomicronemia and recurrent episodes of acute pancreatitis. T1HLP is caused by a deficiency of lipoprotein lipase or one of its cofactors. Many patients are a challenge to treat, as the only effective therapy available is an extremely low fat diet. This diet is exceedingly difficult to follow, and despite adherence, many patients still have chylomicronemia and develop acute pancreatitis. Specific Aim: To determine the efficacy of a gastric and pancreatic lipase inhibitor, Orlistat, in reducing serum triglyceride levels in patients with T1HLP.
