CKJX839D12304 is a research study to determine if the study treatment, called inclisiran, in comparison to placebo or ezetimibe can effectively reduce LDL-C as measured by percentage change from baseline to Day 150. This study is being conducted in eligible participants with primary hypercholesterolemia not receiving any lipid-lowering therapy (LLT), with a 10-year Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) risk of less than 7.5%.
This study will investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of VK2809 in lowering LDL-C and liver fat content in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and fatty liver disease. The primary efficacy endpoint is percent change from baseline LDL-C at the end of the treatment period (Week 12). Secondary endpoints include effects on liver fat content and other liver and lipid markers, as well as effects on safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) measurements.

The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to learn if 'complex' cancer patients who receive care guided by a health system intervention, Primary Care Connect (PC2) have their risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD) managed better than those who receive usual care. This study focuses on "complex" cancer survivors who have higher CVD risk when diagnosed with cancer because they also have had a diagnosis of 1 or more chronic conditions (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, and/or hyperlipidemia) requiring medication management. This study also aims to learn about the ease of implementing the health system intervention from the perspectives of cancer teams, primary care teams, and complex cancer patients. The main questions the study aims to answer are: * Do patients enrolled in the PC2 arm remain connected to their primary care teams during active cancer treatment for chronic disease management compared to patients in usual care? * Do patients enrolled in the PC2 arm have better management of their chronic conditions during active cancer treatment compared to patients in usual care? * How do the care team and patients experience this change in care delivery related to their work and care experiences? This study will compare complex cancer survivors who receive care according to the PC2 intervention to usual care to see if PC2 works to improve cardiovascular risk management. Participants will: * receive educational materials about the study upon enrollment * complete on-line or written surveys at 4 times * Visit the clinic for check ups and test related to the study 4 times
CKJX839D12302 is a pivotal Phase III study designed to test the hypothesis that treatment with inclisiran sodium 300 milligram (mg) subcutaneous (s.c.) administered on Day 1, Day 90, and every 6 months thereafter in patients at high cardiovascular (CV) risk without a prior major atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) event will significantly reduce the risk of 4-Point-Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (4P-MACE) defined as a composite of CV death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), non-fatal ischemic stroke, and urgent coronary revascularization, compared to placebo.
The proposed ONE TEAM Study is an 18-month, cluster randomized controlled trial. This study will use a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) design with a second randomization for the intervention group using a dynamic treatment regimen approach. The investigators propose to randomize 800 adults with newly-diagnosed selected cancers treated with curative intent (breast, prostate, colorectal, endometrial, non-small cell lung, and endometrial) and with \>1 selected cardiovascular disease (CVD) comorbidity (hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia). Participants will be enrolled through Duke Cancer Institute and two community-based oncology practices, both settings serving socio-demographically diverse populations. The unit of randomization will be the PCP clinic; there will be \~80 PCP clinics across North Carolina involved in the study. The overarching goals of this study are to improve chronic disease management and communication among cancer survivors by engaging PCPs as active members of the cancer care team and reframing the message to cancer survivors and providers. A diversity supplement with retrospective and qualitative components has been added to abstract older adults with solid tumors who underwent cancer surgery at DUHS. Aims include (1) to estimate the prevalence of cardiovascular complications ≤90 postoperative days among older adults with solid tumors undergoing surgery, and its association with care coordination between surgical providers and PCPs ; (2) to develop a risk index for cardiovascular complications ≤90 days of surgery among older adult patients with a solid tumor; and (3) to Assess experience and perceptions of PCPs on care coordination with surgical providers of older adults with a solid tumor following cancer surgery.
The goal of this study is to 1) examine the feasibility and acceptability of a one-day Acceptance and Commitment Training + Illness Management (ACT-IM) intervention in patients with comorbid vascular disease risk factors and depression or anxiety; and 2) to evaluate the effectiveness of this brief group intervention(ACT-IM), compared to Treatment-As-Usual (TAU) on the mental health and functioning of patients with co-morbid mood/anxiety and vascular disease risk factors. Patients with vascular disease risk factors will be identified by physicians in Family Practice or Internal Medicine, through chart review, or through advertisements. Those with vascular risk factors will be screened and assessed for symptoms of depression or anxiety. Patients who are experiencing significant depressive or anxiety symptoms and are interested in the treatment arm of the study will be randomized to the ACT-IM intervention or to TAU. Assessments of the following will take place both before and after the intervention: depression, anxiety, functioning, illness self-management, blood vessel health, and blood.
This quality improvement trial aims to evaluate whether giving patients information about their coronary heart disease risk via a computer kiosk in the doctors waiting room and providing primary care doctors with a personal digital device with a decision support tool to help with cholesterol management will improve cholesterol management compared to usual care.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the overall safety of Lapaquistat Acetate, once daily (QD), by itself or in combination with atorvastatin in subjects with primary dyslipidemia.
The trial will examine whether a centralized Prevention Health \& Cardiovascular Risk Service (PHCVRS) run by clinical pharmacists at the University of Iowa can be implemented in primary care offices and whether it can improve the care delivered to patients at risk for developing cardiovascular disease.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of disparities in years of life lost by race and low socioeconomic status. Statins have been shown to decrease the risk of cardiovascular events among individuals with high CVD risk. Yet, despite increased statin use and overall declining CVD rates, disparities in statin use and disparities in the control of high cholesterol by race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status have persisted. Objective: To improve the appropriate use of statins for primary cardiovascular disease prevention among high risk individuals at community health centers through a system of population health management that uses electronic health record (EHR) data to identify patients for targeted education and outreach. Aim 1: Conduct a randomized controlled trial among individuals with 10-year risk for myocardial infarction or coronary death of 10% or higher to determine if the population health management intervention, compared to usual care, results in higher rates of documented statin treatment discussions within 6 months (primary process outcome), higher rates of statin prescribing within 6 months (secondary process outcome), and higher rates of significant low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) lowering defined as a follow up LDL-C ≥30 mg/dL lower than baseline (primary clinical outcome). Aim 2: Interview patients who received the intervention to identify barriers to success Aim 3: Assess the overall costs of the intervention and the costs per each patient who achieves significant LDL-C lowering compared to patient who received usual care.
Cholesterol screening is an important prerequisite for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk assessment. Cholesterol screening is recommended by the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF). Since reminder systems have been shown to modestly improve the rates of preventive services, including in safety net settings, we will implement patient-directed reminders to health center patients who meet our eligibility criteria. The aim of this study is to determine if a mailed outreach message and facilitated ordering of screening lipid tests increases cholesterol screening test completion within 3 months among federally qualified community health center patients who are eligible for screening compared to usual care.
VictORION-INCLUSION (V-INCLUSION) seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of inclisiran as an innovative therapy with the potential to help bridge care gaps in historically understudied and undertreated populations by leveraging electronic health records (EHR) in multiple US Healthcare Systems (HCS) to systematically identify those at high risk for and already diagnosed with ASCVD for more expeditious achievement of LDL-C targets.
The Vermont Diabetes Information System (VDIS) is a registry-based decision support and reminder system based on the Chronic Care Model and targeted to primary care physicians and their patients with diabetes. It will be evaluated by a randomized, controlled study in 60 Primary Care practices in Vermont and nearby New York.
