Effects of Lovaza on Lipoprotein Composition and Function in Mild Hypertriglyceridemia
Description

This study will build upon a previous finding that showed a triglyceride lowering effect of prescription omega-3 in combined therapy with statins. The proposed study will use a simple change from baseline design on 15 subjects who are hypertriglyceridemic on stable statin therapy. The protocol involves 3 study visits; each involve drawing a blood sample: day 1 - screening (blood draw for qualification and safety); day 7 - before taking prescription omega-3 fatty acids (Lovaza, 4 capsules/d; GlaxoSmithKline), day 63 -after taking prescription omega-3 fatty acids (Lovaza, 4 capsules/d; GlaxoSmithKline). The proposed study will include up to 15 subjects and will utilize several different measures of lipoprotein structure and function. The investigators will measure functional parameters such as the binding affinity of lipoproteins before and after treatment with omega-3 fatty acids. The investigators will also measure fatty acid, oxylipin and apolipoprotein content of plasma, very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL).

Docosahexenoic Acid (DHA) Supplementation and Cardiovascular Disease in Men With High Triglycerides
Description

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of supplementing diets of hyperlipidemic men with DHA (docosahexenoic acid) on risk factors for cardiovascular disease. We hypothesize that supplementing diets of hyperlipidemic men with DHA will decrease the plasma concentrations of CRP (C-reactive protein), inflammatory cytokines, and soluble adhesion molecules. We further hypothesize that DHA supplementation will decrease serum triglyceride concentrations and increase HDL concentration.

Diazoxide Choline in Hypertriglyceridemia
Description

Hypertriglyceridemia affects 30% of the population in the US. Very high level of triglycerides is a known risk factor for pancreatitis. In addition, studies have shown that hypertriglyceridemia is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Diazoxide is a KATP channel opener. It has been approved by the FDA as an oral suspension for the treatment of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemic conditions and as an IV solution for malignant hypertension. Preclinical and clinical studies suggest that diazoxide can be a potential therapeutic agent for hypertriglyceridemia. Diazoxide choline is a novel, highly crystalline proprietary salt of diazoxide, which has been formulated as a controlled-release tablet suitable for once per day dosing. This current study is designed to assess the effect of diazoxide choline on triglycerides in subjects with baseline hypertriglyceridemia. In addition, the effects on other lipid parameters, glucose and insulin, body weight as well as the safety and tolerability of diazoxide choline will be assessed.

Trial of Lovaza in Adolescents With Mild to Moderately Elevated Triglycerides
Description

The investigators will conduct a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of Lovaza (formerly known as Omacor) in reducing triglyceride levels in youth ages 10-19 years old whose baseline triglycerides range from 150 mg/dl to 1000 mg/dl. Seventy subjects will be recruited at baseline and randomized to the treatment condition, Lovaza 4 grams/day for 6 months or the control condition, a corn oil placebo, 4 tablets a day for 6 months. Participants in both the treatment and control groups will receive the standard of care, which is dietary advice to follow a low, refined carbohydrate and low saturated fat diet that emphasizes increasing intake of fruits and vegetables and eating 2 servings per week of fishes rich in omega-3 fatty acids, consistent with the American Heart Association recommendations. The primary outcome will be change in fasting triglycerides from baseline to 3 months. The investigators hypothesize that patients who receive LOVAZA will have significantly greater reductions in plasma triglyceride levels when compared to patients on placebo at 3 months.
