Filter by:The primary objective of this study was to assess users' ability to administer a full dose of evolocumab in a home-use setting using either an automated mini-doser (AMD) or autoinjector/pen (AI/pen).
The primary objective of this study was to assess users' ability to administer a full dose of evolocumab in home-use using either a pre-filled syringe or autoinjector/pen.
This study is being done to find out if tablets containing extended release (ER) niacin, laropiprant, and simvastatin (ERN/LRPT/SIM) are as effective as tablets containing ER niacin and laropiprant taken with simvastatin tablets (ERN/LRPT + SIM) for lowering high cholesterol and high lipid levels in the blood. The primary hypothesis is that ERN/LRPT/SIM 2 g /20 mg is equivalent to ERN/LRPT 2 g coadministered with simvastatin 20 mg in reducing low-density lipoprotein cholestrol (LDL-C).
This study is being done to find out if tablets containing extended release (ER) niacin, laropiprant, and simvastatin (ERN/LRPT/SIM) are as effective as tablets containing ER niacin and laropiprant taken with simvastatin tablets (ERN/LRPT + SIM) for lowering high cholesterol and high lipid levels in the blood. The primary hypothesis is that ERN/LRPT/SIM 2 g/40 mg is equivalent to ERN/LRPT 2 g co-administered with simvastatin 40 mg in reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in participants with primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia, and elevated low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) to assess the efficacy and safety of extended release (ER) niacin/laropiprant [ERN/LRPT (MK-0524A)] when added to the following ongoing lipid-modifying therapy (LMT): simvastatin, atorvastatin, rosuvastatin monotherapy, ezetimibe/simvastatin fixed dose combination (FDC), or any statin co-administered with ezetimibe. The study is based on the hypothesis that ERN/LRPT 2 g daily will be superior to placebo at lowering LDL-C at Week 12 of treatment.
This is a 3-period study. Periods 1 and 2 will evaluate the effects of multiple doses of laropiprant on the antiplatelet effects of clopidogrel and aspirin administered in combination in participants with primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia. Period 3 will be open-label and will evaluate single dose pharmacokinetics of nicotinic acid and laropiprant components of Tredaptive.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of SCH 900271 compared to placebo on the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) from baseline to 8 weeks of treatment in participants with primary hypercholesterolemia (familial and nonfamilial) or mixed hyperlipidemia. The study will also evaluate the effect of SCH 900271 on non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and various other lipids and lipoproteins. The safety of SCH 900271 in this participant population will also be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of atorvastatin 10 mg and ezetimibe 10 mg coadministration in Japanese participants with hypercholesterolemia whose low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol levels have not reached the lipid management target value with atorvastatin 10 mg alone, versus increasing the dose of atorvastatin to 20 mg or changing to rosuvastatin 2.5 mg.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of ezetimibe 10 mg/day compared to placebo on the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) from baseline to 12 weeks of treatment in children >=6 to <=10 years old with primary hypercholesterolemia. The study will also evaluate the effect of ezetimibe on total cholesterol (TC), apolipoprotein B (Apo B), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-HDL-C, and triglycerides (TG). The safety of ezetimibe in this subject population will also be evaluated.
Eprotirome (KB2115) is a liver selective thyroid hormone that can induce hyperthyroidism in the liver, while an euthyroid state is preserved in the extrahepatic tissue. Eprotirome has in a clinical 2-weeks studies demonstrated pronounced reduction of independent risk factors for the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of KB2115 as monotherapy following 12 weeks of exposure compared to placebo. The aim of the study is to assess efficacy (LDL-cholesterol lowering effects) and safety of KB2115.
