NCT ID NCT07427472

Summary

This study aims to understand how heart artery disease progresses over time in people with a genetic condition causing very high cholesterol. Researchers will use detailed heart scans to track changes in artery plaque in 300 participants over 5 years, with health record follow-up for 10 years. The goal is to better predict heart risks and understand why some people with this condition develop heart problems while others do not.
