Registry study for familial cholesterol conditions
Part of Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), either genetic or clinical, and it can be mild-to-severe (heterozygous or homozygous).
- Or you are a close relative of someone already diagnosed with FH and you were offered screening.
- Your information will be stripped of personal identifiers (de-identified) before it is shared for this registry.
- Your high cholesterol is not mainly caused by another treatable condition (for example, untreated thyroid problems, bile flow blockage, or kidney protein loss).
- Your local clinic must be able to collect and share your anonymized data according to local and country data standards.

This registry collects information from people with inherited high cholesterol to better understand the condition and care needs. You may be invited to share blood and medical test results, especially your cholesterol and related health history.
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 study uses a 'cascade testing' approach, where family members of people with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), a genetic condition causing very high cholesterol, are tested to see if they also have it. The goal is to identify and test at-risk relatives early so they can get treatment to prevent heart problems.
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 study aims to find and help people with very high cholesterol, which can run in families. If you or your child have high cholesterol, this study may help you understand your risk and get the right care.
This trial focuses on people referred to a cholesterol (lipid) clinic to help identify inherited high cholesterol. It tests an “interpretive comment” approach to nudge detection—meaning it may help clinicians recognize who is most likely to have familial hypercholesterolemia.
