Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test the effects of saxagliptin, a treatment for diabetes, on fasting and post-meal blood triglyceride (blood fat) levels.
To evaluate the efficacy of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 g/ day of CaPre™ in reducing fasting plasma serum triglycerides over a four week period in patients with mild-to-high hypertriglyceridemia as compared to the standard of care alone.
AMR101 (icosapent ethyl [ethyl-EPA]) is a highly purified ethyl ester of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) developed by Amarin Pharma Inc. for the treatment of cardiovascular disease in statin-treated patients with hypertriglyceridemia. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether this drug, combined with a statin therapy, will be superior to the statin therapy alone, when used as a prevention in reducing long-term cardiovascular events in high-risk patients with mixed dyslipidemia.
The purpose of the study is to examine whether a medication called acipimox can improve your body's mitochondria. Mitochondria are the "power house" of the cell and make energy for your body. Obesity is associated with increased risk for developing diabetes. However, the investigators do not know how obesity leads to diabetes. Previous studies have shown levels of fat in the blood (free fatty acids or FFA) are higher in obesity, and elevated FFA can affect how our body uses glucose and responds to insulin. Recent studies have shown that changes in mitochondria may be involved in the development of diabetes and may be affected by FFA. The investigators propose to improve the function of mitochondria in obese people with pre-diabetes by treating with acipimox, a medication which decreases FFA. The investigators will use state of the art techniques to evaluate the mitochondria, including a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique to measure function of mitochondria in muscle.
The primary objective is to determine the effect of multiple doses of Epanova® (omega fatty acids) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple 40 mg doses of simvastatin.
The objective of this study is to compare the effects of ciprofibrate versus omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on the vascular structure and function in hypertensive patients with hypertriglyceridemia.
This is a study designed to evaluate the potential for the LCQ908 to impact cardiovascular risk.
With metformin for the control, evaluate the safety and efficacy of Jiangtangtiaozhi decoction in treatment of obesity with type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia
Atherogenic dyslipidemia includes patients who have coronary heart disease (CHD) or CHD risk equivalents, whose TG level is not adequately controlled after statin monotherapy. According to the published ESC/EAS consensus, fibrate is suggested to be added to this type of patient who has insufficient improvement. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy on lipid control and the safety of adding fenofibrate in patients on a background of statin treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether CaPre(TM), given at doses 1.0g or 2.0g for 12 weeks, has an effect on fasting plasma triglycerides in patients with mild to high hypertriglyceridemia as compared to a placebo.
