YES
To evaluate whether genetic test and counseling in addition to usual patient education is associated with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia.
Efficacy
Confirmatory
LDL cholesterol levels at 24 weeks after randomization.
Blood test results (total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL-C, LDL-C, FBG, HbA1C, WBC, RBC, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, Platelet, ALT, AST, gamma GTP, ALP, T-Bil. Cr, BUN. TP, Alb, UA, Na, K, Cl, Ca, P, hsCRP), smoking habit, drug adherence, and patient satisfaction questionnaire (PSQ-18) score at 24 and 48 weeks after randomization between intervention/control and/or genetic test positive / negative groups.
Interventional

Prevention
Gene |
In addition to usual familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) patients' education, we perform genetic tests for genes associated with FH (LDLR, PCSK9, APOB, and LDLRAP1), and individual genetic counseling regarding the genetic test result and his/her future cardiovascular risk.
Usual FH patients' education
15 | years-old | <= |
Not applicable |
Male and Female
1) Diagnosed with familial hypercholesterolemia by criteria from the Japan Atherosclerosis Society.
2) Patients who have never got genetic tests, or have not yet returned genetic results regarding familial hypercholesterolemia.
3) Patients who can provide written informed consent
1) Liver dysfunction (AST or ALT > 3 times the UNL)
2) Renal dysfunction (Cr 2.0 mg/dL or greater)
3) Immunosuppression
4) Active cancer
5) Previous history of coronary heart disease:
i) Myocardial infarction
ii) History of percutaneous coronary intervention
iii) Coronary stenosis (75% or greater) previously detected by coronary angiography
6) Female with pregnancy or expected
7) Patients whose doctors in charge consider him/her inappropriate to participate
