Study of bempedoic acid for high cholesterol
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study observes patients with high cholesterol or mixed lipid disorders who are taking bempedoic acid, alone or with ezetimibe, to see how it works in real life. It aims to gather information that may help doctors better manage cholesterol.

This study tests a cholesterol-lowering combination of three medicines: bempedoic acid, ezetimibe, and a statin (atorvastatin or rosuvastatin). It is for people with high cholesterol, especially those at high risk for heart problems, who need stronger treatment.
This study compares two new medicines—obicetrapib and bempedoic acid—to see which one better lowers cholesterol in people whose cholesterol remains high despite taking standard medications. If your cholesterol isn't controlled well enough with current drugs, this trial may help you access an experimental treatment.
This trial tests a triple therapy pill (bempedoic acid, ezetimibe, and a high-intensity statin) in patients who have extensive plaque in their heart arteries but have never had a heart attack or stroke. It aims to see if this combination can further lower cholesterol and prevent future problems.
This study tests a single pill that combines two cholesterol-lowering medicines (pitavastatin and ezetimibe). It may be a good fit if you already take a statin or a statin plus ezetimibe and your doctor wants to adjust your treatment.
This trial tests whether taking two experimental drugs together can safely lower both high blood pressure and high cholesterol. It may be an option if you have both conditions and your blood pressure is not extremely high.
This trial tests a drug called bempedoic acid to see if it can safely help lower cholesterol in adults. It may be an option if you have high cholesterol and need a different treatment.
