About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of PDL-0101 in Patients With Hyperlipidemias: a Pilot Study

This will be an 8 week multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial.

Read the detailed description

This will be an 8 week, multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial. The screening visit will be divided into two parts, a "pre-screen" in-clinic rapid lipid test (Cholestech) followed by a full screening blood draw to be sent to the central reference laboratory (CRL) for subjects meeting the Cholestech inclusion values for TG and LDL (see inclusion criteria below) on the pre-screen test. Subjects who do not meet the pre-screen criteria will be discharged from further participation in the study. Subjects must have pre-screen lipid values of LDL >/=70 mg/dl and triglyceride (TG) >/=180 and </=499. Subjects who meet these Cholestech criteria will have blood drawn for central reference laboratory (CRL) screening testing. For randomization, 80% of the subjects must have TG>/=200 mg/dl to proceed to the next screening step while up to 20% will be allowed to proceed to the next screening step with TG=150-199 mg/dl as long as the LDL is>/=70 mg/dl. Subjects who meet the CRL pre-screen lipid inclusion criteria will return 2-14 days later for the remainder of the full screening procedures. Subjects who meet all screening criteria will be randomized at this visit. Thus, the prescreening and screening-1 visits will occur at the same time and the screening 2 visit will also be the baseline visit. BMI will be calculated but is not a criterion for participation.

Subjects who meet all inclusion and exclusion requirements at the screening 2/baseline visit will be randomized to receive one of the two (2) study products. Randomization will proceed in groups of 5 with 4 subjects having TG between 200-499 mg/dl before randomizing a subject with TG between 150-199 mg/dl. Subjects will return for evaluation 4 and 8 weeks after the baseline visit at which times adverse events (AEs) will be recorded, blood lipid studies will be done and subjects will complete a VAS for product tolerability. Laboratory studies will be drawn after subjects have been sitting for at least 5 minutes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PD-L0101 in people with Hyperlipidemia, run by Primus Pharmaceuticals.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. 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 26 Jan 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

lowering serum TG levels (time frame: 8 weeks). 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 26 Jan 2016.
