Study of families with familial high cholesterol
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This is a study that follows people with a genetic form of very high cholesterol (familial hypercholesterolemia) and their close relatives. It aims to better understand this condition in real families and how it affects health over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a genetic diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH)
- Your family member also has a genetic diagnosis of FH, or you are a close relative
- You are over age 15
- You are willing to participate

This study observes how doctors treat high cholesterol in patients at increased heart disease risk. By understanding current treatment approaches, researchers aim to improve how cholesterol is managed and reduce heart disease risk.
This trial focuses on people with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), an inherited condition that causes very high cholesterol. It aims to better understand and manage severe cholesterol problems that raise heart risk, especially in families.
This registry study collects information from people with familial hypercholesterolemia (a genetic condition causing very high cholesterol) to better understand the disease and improve care. By participating, you help researchers learn more about this condition.
This trial is a global registry that collects health and genetic information from people with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and sometimes from their relatives. The goal is to better understand FH and how it presents, which can help improve care for families affected by high cholesterol.
This trial is about helping families with familial hypercholesterolemia (a genetic condition that causes very high cholesterol) get screened. It tests a way to reach close relatives so they can learn their risk and consider next steps.
This trial is a registry that collects information from people with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (an inherited condition causing extremely high “bad” cholesterol). It may help researchers better understand the condition and support future studies.
