摘要
En 中文
Some recent clinical reports have suggested that paradoxical decreases in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels after fenofibrate treatment may be quite common. These appear to occur mainly in patients with combined fibrate/statin therapy and possibly in those with low baseline HDL-C. Reports on HDL-C reductions after fenofibrate are possibly supported by the disappointing results in terms of HDL-C responses from the recent FIELD study. A survey on 581 patients treated for 1 year or longer was carried out in our Clinical Center. This indicated that paradoxical HDL-C reductions are a relatively uncommon phenomenon. Not more than 15.3% of the present series showed an HDL-C reduction, mostly of a modest degree. Further, reductions of HDL-C appear to occur mainly in individuals with significant HDL-C elevations (> 50 mg/dL), almost never in patients with low HDL-C. Otherwise, there seems to be no impact of a previous diagnosis of diabetes or hypertension on the HDL-C changes. From a very recent pharmacogenomic study on the apo A1/C3/A4/A5 gene cluster, genetic influences appear only to reduce the positive impact of fenofibrate on HDL-C, but do not indicate any risk of occurrence of HDL-C reductions. Also based on our very long experience with this drug, it appears that fenofibrate raises HDL-C levels in the vast majority of treated patients, with a particularly dramatic effect in individuals with low HDL-C and hypertriglyceridemia.
