Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effects of Prescription Omega-3 on LDL-C in Primary Hypercholesterolemia (NCT NCT00746811)

NCT ID: NCT00746811

Last Updated: 2024-05-31

Results Overview

The primary outcome variable will be the percent change from baseline in LDL-C during each treatment. Baseline will be considered the average of values obtained at weeks -1 and 0. On-treatment values will be the average of values collected at weeks 5 and 6 for phase 1, and the average of values collected at weeks 11 and 12 for phase 2.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (average of weeks -1 and 0) and after 5 or 6 weeks of intervention (average of weeks 5 and 6 for the first treatment phase; average of weeks 11 and 12 for the second treatment phase).

The primary outcome variable will be the percent change from baseline in LDL-C during each treatment. Baseline will be considered the average of values obtained at weeks -1 and 0. On-treatment values will be the average of values collected at weeks 5 and 6 for phase 1, and the average of values collected at weeks 11 and 12 for phase 2.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (average of weeks -1 and 0) and after 5 or 6 weeks of intervention (average of weeks 5 and 6 for the first treatment phase; average of weeks 11 and 12 for the second treatment phase).

Percent changes from baseline in the levels of TC, HDL-C, non-HDL-C, VLDL-C, TG, TC/ HDL-C ratio and Apo AI and B. Baseline and on-treatment values for TC, HDL-C, non-HDL-C, VLDL-C, TG, TC/ HDL-C ratio will be calculated as described for LDL-C. Baseline values for Apo AI and B will include the average of values obtained at weeks -1 and 0. On-treatment values for Apo AI and B will be the average of values collected at weeks 6 and 12.
