Penn Family Screening for Familial Hypercholesterolemia
Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to test two implementation strategies (automated health system \[Penn Medicine\]-mediated strategy vs. Family Heart Foundation-mediated strategy using a patient navigator) versus usual care to promote family cascade screening for familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) in Penn Medicine patients diagnosed with FH ("probands"). The main questions this study aims to answer are: (1) evaluating the effect of the three approaches on reach (proportion of probands who have at least one family member who completes screening), number of family members screened, number of family members diagnosed with FH, and proband LDL-C levels; and (2) identifying implementation strategy mechanisms focusing on health equity using mixed methods and oversampling populations that experience disparities. Participants (probands) in the active arms (health system \[Penn Medicine\]-mediated, Family Heart Foundation-mediated) will receive messaging that provides education about FH and provides instructions for participating in family cascade screening. A subset of probands will be invited to complete a qualitative interview about their experience receiving the implementation strategy. The research team will compare the active arms to Penn Medicine usual care for cascade screening to evaluate whether the active arms are more effective at promoting cascade screening than usual care.

WITHDRAWN
Cross-over Pilot Study of Blood Cholesterol Response to Dietary Saturated Fat in Patients With Autosomal Dominant Hypercholesterolemia
Description

We are performing a pilot cross-over diet study involving 5 patients with heterozygous FH and 5 patients with unexplained ADH. The patients will be randomized to a low versus high saturated fat diet for 4 weeks each. We hypothesize that patients with unexplained ADH may have an exaggerated cholesterol response to saturated fat intake. The specific aim of this study is to quantify the increase in LDL-C in unexplained ADH patients compared to FH patients. The pilot study proposed here will develop preliminary data to be used for future funding proposals of larger, randomized studies.
