Study of a receptor in people with high LDL cholesterol
Treatments studied
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how a body receptor (called the A2A receptor) works in people with high “bad” cholesterol (LDL). It compares people with high LDL to people with normal LDL to better understand cholesterol-related biology.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 80 years old
- Have a recent blood test (within the last 12 months) showing your LDL cholesterol level
- If you have high LDL: your LDL must be above 1.9 g/L (with or without cholesterol treatment)
- If your LDL is normal: you must have LDL below 1.9 g/L and not take cholesterol-lowering medicines
- Either live in France with social security coverage (a social security plan) and agree to sign consent

This study looks at how cholesterol and triglyceride levels change in people with dyslipidemia (unhealthy cholesterol/fat levels). Researchers want to understand what different causes mean for long-term health.
This study checks how common fatty liver disease is in people with a genetic form of high cholesterol. It may help researchers understand the link between these two conditions.
This study tests how a new drug moves through the body and affects cholesterol levels. It is for people with moderately high cholesterol who are otherwise healthy.
This trial tests an experimental drug, QLC7401, for people with high LDL cholesterol that hasn't lowered enough with current treatments. It aims to see if the drug can help reduce cholesterol levels in patients who are already on stable cholesterol medication.
This trial tests a new injection called ART002g1 for people with a genetic condition that causes very high cholesterol. It aims to see if the drug is safe and can help lower cholesterol levels.
This study looks at people with rare or unusual cholesterol, fat, or heart-related conditions. It helps researchers learn more about these disorders and improve testing. You do not need to have a known diagnosis to join initially.
