A Study to Evaluate Fasting/Postprandial Serum Apolipoprotein B-48 (ApoB-48) Levels in Diabetic Participants With Normal to Moderately High Low Density Lipoprotein-C (LDL-C) Levels (MK-0653A-259 AM1)

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Dyslipidemia
Hypercholesterolemia
Interventions
Other: Test Meal
Registration Number
NCT01333436
Lead Sponsor
Organon and Co
Brief Summary

This study will evaluate whether fasting/postprandial serum ApoB-48 levels are increased in diabetic participants compared to nondiabetic participants with the same range of serum LDL-C levels, and whether ApoB-48 levels can be used, along with LDL-C levels, to identify potential cardiovascular disease risk.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Postprandial Incremental Area Under the Curve From 0-6 Hours (iAUC)[0-6] of Apolipoprotein B-48 (ApoB-48)up to 6 hours after Test Meal

ApoB-48 levels were measured at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours after the administration of the test meal.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Fasting ApoB-48 LevelsBaseline (Hour 0)

ApoB-48 levels measured after at least a 12-hour fast and prior to administration of test meal (Hour 0).

Postprandial Mean ApoB-48 Peak Levelsup to 6 hours after Test Meal

ApoB-48 levels measured at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hours after the administration of test meal. Peak was the highest ApoB-48 level recorded during this timeframe.
