NCT ID NCT06331195

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether a special heart-friendly diet, with or without added plant sterols and krill oil, can improve cholesterol levels in people with familial hypercholesterolemia (a genetic condition causing very high cholesterol). About 300 participants will follow the diet and take either placebo or the supplements for 120 days. The goal is to see if these additions help lower LDL cholesterol and lipoprotein(a) better than diet alone.
