Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Phytosterols and ezetimibe each reduce intestinal cholesterol absorption by 30-55% but appear to have different mechanisms of action. The investigators' hypothesis is that phytosterols and ezetimibe given together will block cholesterol absorption in an additive fashion. In a randomized, placebo-controlled crossover trial the effects of placebo, ezetimibe treatment and ezetimibe plus phytosterol treatment will be measured.

Investigators

A profile link is shown only when the registered name resolves to a person record with a confident, namesake-checked match; ambiguous names stay unlinked.

Sites

Site investigator names are published by ClinicalTrials.gov only while a study recruits, so completed studies list sites without them.
