9 Clinical Trials for Hypertriglyceridemia
This Phase 3 study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of plozasiran injection (ARO-APOC3) in adult participants with hypertriglyceridemia (HTG). After providing informed consent eligible participants will be randomized to receive 4 doses (once every 3 months) of plozasiran or placebo and be evaluated for efficacy and safety.
The design of the Phase 2 clinical trial includes the following elements: * Multi-center, two-arm, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate MN-001 (tipelukast) vs. placebo in approximately 40 patients in the U.S. * Patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either 500 mg/day of MN-001 (tipelukast) or placebo for 24 weeks. * The co-primary endpoints are (1) change from baseline in liver fat content measured by controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) score at Week 24, and (2) change from baseline in fasting serum triglycerides at Week 24. FibroScan® is a non-invasive, quantitative, and accurate measure of liver fat content commonly used in early phase trials to measure treatment response. * Secondary endpoints include safety and tolerability and changes in lipid profile (HDL-C, LDL-C, and total cholesterol).
This Phase 3 study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of plozasiran injection (ARO-APOC3) in adult participants with severe hypertriglyceridemia (SHTG). After providing informed consent eligible participants will be randomized to receive 4 doses (once every 3 months) of plozasiran or placebo, and be evaluated for efficacy and safety. After Month 12, eligible participants will be offered an opportunity to continue in an optional open-label extension under a separate protocol.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of olezarsen in participants with SHTG.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of single doses of RN0361 in Adult healthy subjects and Adult Hypertriglyceridemic Subjects.
Dietary incorporation of pulse crops may be an effective way to lower unhealthy elevations in serum bile acids. These elevations play a direct role in promoting obesity-related diseases estimated to be present in about one third of the US adult population, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and type 2 diabetes. The overarching hypothesis for this study is that pulse consumption increases bile acid secretion and excretion, which will decrease toxicity linked to excess accumulation of bile in the liver, improve metabolism, and lower resulting levels of bile acids in the serum. In direct alignment with the USDA-AFRI Food, Safety, Nutrition, and Health priority to address obesity and related chronic disease with increased fruit and vegetable consumption and also with the American Pulse Association call to investigate the impact of regular pulse consumption on human physical well- being, the long-term research goal of this study is to establish effective and practical therapeutic strategies utilizing dietary incorporation of pulse crops to prevent or reverse obesity driven diseases. The specific objectives in this proposal are to: 1. determine the impact of acute lentil ingestion on serum postprandial bile acid responses and composition in a human cohort with obesity, and 2. determine the impact of daily lentil consumption for 12 weeks on serum fasting and postprandial bile acid concentrations and composition in an overweight or obese cohort with elevated postprandial triglycerides. This proposal is being submitted in response to the American Pulse Association commodity board sponsored topic of investigating the impact pulse crop consumption on health.
This study is researching an experimental drug called mibavademab. The study is focused on participants with GLD who have been on metreleptin treatment for at least 6 months with no change in dose for the last 3 months. The aim of the study is to see how safe and tolerable mibavademab is when switching from treatment with metreleptin. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: * What side effects may happen from taking mibavademab * How much mibavademab is in the blood at different times * Whether the body makes antibodies against mibavademab (which could make mibavademab less effective or could lead to side effects)
Background: - Generalized lipodystrophy can cause high blood fat levels and resistance to insulin. This can lead to health problems including diabetes. Researchers have found that the drug metreleptin improves health in people with this disease. Objective: - To test the safety and effectiveness of metreleptin. Eligibility: * People ages 6 months and older with generalized lipodystrophy who: * have received metreleptin through NIH studies AND * cannot get it through approved or compassionate use mechanisms in their home country. Design: * Participants will come to NIH approximately every 6 months during year one, then every 1 2 years. Financial assistance may be available for travel within the U.S. * At visits, participants will get a supply of metreleptin to take home for daily injections. They will have: * plastic catheter placed in an arm vein. * blood tests, urine collection, and physical exam. * oral glucose tolerance test, drinking a sweet liquid. * ultrasound of the heart, liver, uterus, and ovaries. A gel and a probe are placed on the skin and pictures are taken of the organs. * echocardiogram, which takes pictures of the heart with sound waves. * Resting Metabolic Rate taken. A plastic hood is worn over the head while the oxygen they breathe is measured. * Participants will have up to 3 DEXA scan x-rays per year. * Participants may have: * annual bone x-rays. * liver biopsies every few years. A needle will be inserted into the liver to obtain a small piece. Participants will sign a separate consent for this. * Participants must be seen regularly by their local doctors and have blood tests at least every 3 6 months at home.
