What is being measured

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

  1. Percent Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Calculated Low-Density Lipoprotein-Cholesterol (LDL-C)

    Percent change from Baseline was calculated as the ([post-Baseline value minus the Baseline value] divided by the Baseline value) x 100. Baseline was defined as the mean of the values from Weeks -1 and 0. Least square (LS) mean percent change from Baseline to Week 12 was based on an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with effects of treatment and triglyceride (TG) stratum and Baseline value as a covariate. Missing LDL-C values at Week 12 were imputed using the last observation carried forward (LOCF) procedure (only post-Baseline values were carried forward).

    Measured: Baseline; 12 weeks

  2. Percent Change From Baseline to Week 12 in LDL-C by Triglyceride (TG) Stratum

    Percent change from Baseline was calculated as the ([post-Baseline value minus the Baseline value] divided by the Baseline value) x 100. Baseline was defined as the mean of the values from Weeks -1 and 0. LS mean percent change from Baseline to Week 12 was based on an ANCOVA model with effects of treatment and center and Baseline value as a covariate. Missing LDL-C values at Week 12 were imputed using the LOCF procedure (only post-Baseline values were carried forward).

    Measured: Baseline; 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (16)

  2. Percent Change From Baseline to Week 12 in High-Density Lipoprotein-Cholesterol (HDL-C)

LS mean percent change from Baseline to Week 12 was based on an ANCOVA model with effects of treatment and TG stratum and Baseline value as a covariate. Missing non-HDL-C values at Week 12 were imputed using the LOCF procedure (only post-Baseline values were carried forward).

    Measured: Baseline; 12 weeks

  4. Percent Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Total Cholesterol (TC)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ETC-1002 in people with Dyslipidemia, run by Esperion Therapeutics, Inc. at 11 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Mar 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percent Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Calculated Low-Density Lipoprotein-Cholesterol (LDL-C) (time frame: Baseline; 12 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01262638, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Mar 2021.
