Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A total of 120 patients will be entered in this study to assess the safety and efficacy of enteric coated sevelamer (ECS) to lower LDL cholesterol. Patients will be randomized into two active treatment groups, two placebo groups and one active control group.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a prospective, randomized, single blind, active and placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multi-center study.

Two groups of ECS consisting of 3 and 6 tablets/day (n=30), two placebo groups of 3 and 6 tablets/day (n=15 each) and one active control group of colesevelam 6 tablets/day (n=30). The study is being conducted solely in India and there will be a total of 6-8 sites.

The safety parameters are:

* Serious adverse events SAEs
* Treatment and non-treatment emergent AEs
* Physical exams and vital signs
* Clinical safety laboratories

The efficacy parameters include a fasting lipid profile:

* Low density lipoproteins (LDL)
* Total cholesterol
* High density lipoproteins (HDL)
* Triglycerides
