About this study

Official title: A Non-Randomized, Non-Controlled, Open Study In Order To Document The Compliance With Treatment, According To Clinical Praxis And National Guidelines For Patients With Hyperlipidemia. COLL: Control Of Lipid Lowering

It is a prospective observational study.

Patients will be high risk patients (for developing cardiovascular events) that are treated with a statin. Patients will be enrolled at a normal clinic visit and provided with a small box containing info about the disease, a LDL self-test and two questionnaires. They will test themselves for LDL at home between normal clinic visits (normally 12 months interval) and note their value. In the end of the study all patients will fill out a questionnaire with questions if the tests and info have raised their awareness of the disease as well if their motivation to be compliant has increased.

We want to look at the possibility to put more responsibility for treatment and for reaching treatment goals on the patients since there's a big problem with compliance in this group of patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants With Positive Response on Increased Motivation Using a Self-test at Month 12

    Participants with "Yes" response to a question which stated "The self-test have increased my motivation for taking my medication for hyperlipidemia?". The self test done for assessment of LDL levels using CARE diagnostica LDL-cholesterol test.

    Measured: Month 12

  2. Percentage of Participants With Positive Response on Increased Motivation After Awareness at Month 12

    Participants with "Yes" response to a question which stated "The awareness of my disease has increased my motivation for taking my medication for hyperlipidemia?".

    Measured: Month 12

  3. Percentage of Participants With Positive Response on Self-estimated Treatment Compliance at Week 8

    Participants with "Yes" response to a question which stated "Have you been taking at least 90% of your medication for hyperlipidemia?".

    Measured: Week 8

  4. Percentage of Participants With Positive Response on Self-estimated Treatment Compliance at Month 6

    Participants with "Yes" response to a question which stated "Have you been taking at least 90% of your medication for hyperlipidemia?".

    Measured: Month 6

  5. Percentage of Participants With Positive Response on Self-estimated Treatment Compliance at Month 12

    Participants with "Yes" response to a question which stated "Have you been taking at least 90% of your medication for hyperlipidemia?".

    Measured: Month 12

  6. Percentage of Participants With LDL Lower Than 2.5 mmol/L at Week 8

    LDL levels were self-assessed by participants using CARE diagnostica LDL-cholesterol test.

    Measured: Week 8

  7. Percentage of Participants With LDL Lower Than 2.5 mmol/L at Month 6

    LDL levels were self-assessed by participants using CARE diagnostica LDL-cholesterol test.

    Measured: Month 6

  8. Percentage of Participants With LDL Lower Than 2.5 mmol/L at Month 12

    LDL levels were self-assessed by participants using CARE diagnostica LDL-cholesterol test.

    Measured: Month 12

  9. Percentage of Participants With Response Achieving Targeted LDL-cholesterol Level at Week 8

    Participants with "Yes" or "No" responses to a question which stated "Have you reached your target LDL-cholesterol level?". LDL levels were self-assessed by participants using CARE diagnostica LDL-cholesterol test.

    Measured: Week 8

  10. Percentage of Participants With Response Achieving Targeted LDL-cholesterol Level at Month 6

    Participants with "Yes" or "No" responses to a question which stated "Have you reached your target LDL-cholesterol level?". LDL levels were self-assessed by participants using CARE diagnostica LDL-cholesterol test.

    Measured: Month 6

  11. Percentage of Participants With Response Achieving Targeted LDL-cholesterol Level at Month 12

    Participants with "Yes" or "No" responses to a question which stated "Have you reached your target LDL-cholesterol level?". LDL levels were self-assessed by participants using CARE diagnostica LDL-cholesterol test.

    Measured: Month 12

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants With Positive Response on Increased Motivation Using a Self-test at Month 12 (time frame: Month 12). The study lists 11 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Feb 2021.
