BROOKLYN Trial Summary

This trial will study whether the drug obicetrapib is effective in treating people with a history of HeFH, a condition that causes high cholesterol. The trial will be placebo-controlled, meaning some participants will receive a placebo, and double-blind, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers will know who is receiving the drug or the placebo.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with a genetic condition called heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) who have high LDL cholesterol levels despite taking the maximum tolerated dose of lipid-modifying therapies. They must meet specific criteria based on their genetics and clinical history, but can't join if they have severe heart issues, uncontrolled diabetes or hypertension.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Obicetrapib's effectiveness in lowering cholesterol compared to a placebo. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive Obicetrapib or a placebo without knowing which one they're getting, ensuring the results are unbiased.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects of Obicetrapib aren't detailed here, similar medications often cause digestive discomfort, muscle pain or weakness, liver enzyme changes, and increased blood sugar levels.
