This study is designed to learn if enlicitide decanoate is safe and effective to treat children and adolescents with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) and high amounts of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in the blood. The goals of this study are to learn about the safety of enlicitide and if children …
Familial hypercholesterolemia is the most common treatable genetic disorder for which a simple, effective treatment is available, with few side effects. It leads to a significant increase in LDL levels, generally in excess of 1.9g/l, including in children. It is much higher than the values usually found in secondary or …
The main goal of the STEATO-FH study is to determine the prevalence of liver steatosis within the Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia patient population.
This pilot study investigates integrating whole genome sequencing and digital twin technology for managing hypercholesterolemia in Abu Dhabi clinics. It aims to establish protocols for larger future studies and incorporate genomic insights into routine medical care.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of FH-FOLR1 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells in treating pediatric patients with FOLR1+ acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent) or has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). CAR T-cell …
The goal of this study (interventional clinical research not involving a health product) is to assess the prevalence of subclinical coronary atherosclerosis diagnosed by coronary CT angiography in heart failure patients in primary prevention, across different levels of cardiovascular risk defined by coronary artery calcium (CAC) score percentiles (based on …
Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is a common genetic disorder resulting in marked elevations in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). If untreated, lifelong exposure to elevated LDL-C results in a substantially increased risk of (premature) cardiovascular disease as compared to the general population. Although FH adverse cardiovascular outcomes are potentially preventable through early …
SAFEHEART is a large, on-going registry study in molecularly defined patients with heterozygous FH treated in Spain.
True prevalence of FH in the Russian Federation is unknown which leads to low percentage of diagnosed and treated cases. Research is needed to determine the prevalence of FH, specific diagnostic algorithms and optimal treatment strategies. The main aim of the present study is to evaluate the extent to which …
Child-parent screening for familial hypercholesterolemia has been proposed to identify children and their parent who are carrier of mutations and with high risk for inherited premature coronary artery disease. The investigators assessed the efficacy and feasibility of such screening in primary care practice. key scientific questions: The 95th and 99th …
