Cholesterol clinical trials at UCSF
3 in progress, 2 open to eligible people
Cholesterol is a type of fat that travels in the blood. UCSF is evaluating a medicine called inclisiran in children with inherited high cholesterol for safety and effectiveness. UCSF is studying both heterozygous and homozygous inherited forms.
Inclisiran in Children With Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia
open to eligible people ages 6-11
This is a pivotal phase III study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inclisiran in children (aged 6 to <12 years) with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) and elevated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC).

Inclisiran in Children With Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia
open to eligible people ages 2-11
This is a pivotal phase III study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inclisiran in children (aged 2 to <12 years) with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) and elevated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC).

VictORION-INCLUSION: Evaluating Inclisiran for Cholesterol Managment in Heart Disease
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
VictORION-INCLUSION (V-INCLUSION) seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of inclisiran as an innovative therapy with the potential to help bridge care gaps in historically understudied and undertreated populations by leveraging electronic health records (EHR) in multiple US Healthcare Systems (HCS) to systematically identify those at high risk for and already diagnosed with ASCVD for more expeditious achievement of LDL-C targets.
