简要总结

This study is designed to assess whether colesevelam given as third line treatment added to a maximal tolerated and stable dose of a statin and ezetimibe is able to further decrease the level of LDL cholesterol in a safe and efficient manner in difficult to treat Familial Hypercholesterolaemia patients who are not at their target level of LDL cholesterol.

入选标准

  • Patients must have a clinical diagnosis of Familial Hypercholesterolaemia defined as EITHER a.Presence of a documented LDL-receptor mutation OR b. History of untreated LDL-cholesterol level above the 95th percentile for sex and age in combination with documentation of at least one of the following: i.Presence of typical tendon xanthomas in the patient or first degree relative. ii. An LDL-cholesterol level above the 95th percentile for age and sex in a first degree relative. iii. Proven coronary artery disease in the patient or in a first degree relative under the age of
  • Patients must have provided and undergone lifestyle changes for more than 6 months at the time of Screening
  • Patients must have been treated for at least 3 consecutive months preceding the Screening visit with a lipid lowering treatment regimen consisting of maximal tolerated combination of a statin with ezetimibe and are still above their target for LDL cholesterol being 2.5 mmol/L (100 mg/dL)
  • Patients must be committed to following the protocol requirements as evidence by written informed consent
  • Patients should be comfortable with swallowing 3 placebo tablets

排除标准

  • Patients with a known allergy to any of the components used in colesevelam or placebo or any other medications like statin or ezetimibe required for participation in this study
  • Patients with a bowel or biliary obstruction
  • Patients with secondary causes of hypercholesterolaemia, e.g., dysproteinaemia, hypothyroidism, nephrotic syndrome (defined as proteinuria >2 g/L), obstructive liver disease, other pharmacological therapies, alcoholism
  • Patients with triglyceride level of > 3.4 mmol/L
  • Patients with dysphagia, swallowing disorders, severe gastrointestinal motility disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, or major gastrointestinal tract surgery
  • Patients have undergone LDL-apheresis within one year prior to the screening visit and/or need to undergo LDL-apheresis
  • Patients with active liver disease or unexplained persistent elevations in transaminases
  • Patients on fenofibrates or on concomitant cholestyramine as this will affect the area under the curve (AUC) of ezetimibe
  • Patients with poorly-controlled diabetes (i.e., HbA1c>9% at Screening)
  • Patients with clinically significant (CS) abnormal haematology, renal, or other laboratory parameters that could be the result of an underlying malignancy or systemic infection as judged by the investigator
  • Patients with a heart transplant, concurrent congestive heart failure (NYHA Class 3 or 4), life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias, unstable angina, recent myocardial infarction within the past 6 months prior to screening, or patients undergoing haemodialysis, or with active disease who may not be healthy enough to successfully complete all protocol requirements
