About High Triglycerides
High triglycerides (hypertriglyceridemia) refers to raised levels of blood triglycerides and if the levels of this fat in the blood becomes too high, it can lead to heart disease, acute pancreatitis, along with other serious conditions.
High triglycerides may contribute to hardening of the arteries or thickening of the artery walls, this is called arteriosclerosis.
Oftentimes, high triglycerides can be a sign of other conditions like:
- Obesity
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Hypothyroidism
The High Triglycerides Research Study is researching a study drug works to reduce levels of triglycerides and other types of fat in the blood.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a clinical research study?
A Clinical Research Study (also called a clinical trial) is a medical study that helps answer important questions about an investigational drug or device, such as: does it work, or how effective is it compared to another drug/device?
All medications must be tested in clinical research studies before they can be approved by regulatory authorities for doctors to prescribe to patients. Without people taking part in these studies, we would have no new treatments. The volunteers who participate in clinical research studies play a major role in helping to advance medicine.
What can you expect from the High Triglycerides Study?
The High Triglycerides Study will include various visits to a study clinic in your area and follow up phone calls at designated times.
All study-related care is provided at no cost to you. You do not need health insurance to participate.
