简要总结
The overall objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of Coleosoma formulation (fermented red rice, berberine and chitosan) in reducing non-HDL cholesterol in dyslipidemic patients.
详细描述
The incidence of cardiovascular diseases related to atherosclerosis is the leading cause of death in industrialized countries and in many developing countries. It becomes, therefore, essential to implement preventive strategies with lifestyle changes in order to prevent / control the risk factors related to cardiovascular disease.
Dyslipidemia is characterized by qualitative and quantitative alterations of plasma lipids and lipoproteins. In subjects where it is not yet indicated a statin therapy, the guidelines recommend a lifestyle (diet and exercise) act to control cardiovascular risk factors.
The formulation Coleosoma is a supplement composed of fermented red rice, berberine and chitosan. Aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of coleosoma formulation in reducing non-HDL cholesterol (Non-HDL-C), which provides a measure of the cholesterol content in all atherogenic particles.
This is a single-center, randomized (3:1) and controlled double-blind phase II study that involve dyslipidemic patients with non-HDL cholesterol levels ≥ 160 mg / dl.
The study included a maximum of 4 visits for all subjects enrolled. All eligible patients at V0 (screening) undergo baseline assessments (V1) and have been allocated according to the procedure of randomization to one of the study arms. Follow-up (FU) visits for all subjects was at 4 (V2) and at 12 weeks (V3) after randomization.
