Clinical, Journal: Effect of fenofibrate on uric acid level in patients with gout. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 4, 2019 There was no difference in the levels of creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and aminotransferases between patients treated with and without fenofibrate. Fenofibrate additionally reduced uric acid levels without showing any change in the results of renal or liver function tests, suggesting that the addition of fenofibrate is a reasonable option for treating gout in patients having high triglyceride levels.

Biomarker, Journal: Neuroprotective effects of PPARα in retinopathy of type 1 diabetes. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 31, 2019 Two independent prospective clinical trials unexpectedly identified that the PPARα agonist fenofibrate had unprecedented therapeutic effects in DR, but gave little insight into the physiological and molecular mechanisms of action...Mitochondrially mediated apoptosis and oxidative stress secondary to mitochondrial dysfunction contribute to neurodegeneration in DR. Taken together, these findings identify a robust neuroprotective effect for PPARα in DR, which may be due to improved mitochondrial function and subsequent alleviation of energetic deficits, oxidative stress and mitochondrially mediated apoptosis.

Journal: Adrenoceptor-stimulated inflammatory response in stress-induced serum amyloid A synthesis. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 29, 2019 Hippocampal PPARα is a potential novel antidepressant target which mediates the antidepressant actions of fluoxetine in mice. Taken together, these findings strongly support a critical role of the AR-stimulated inflammatory response in the hepatic SAA production under stressful conditions, highlighting distinct AR type-specific mechanisms that regulate the hepatic synthesis of SAA1/2 and SAA3.

Journal: Fenofibrate and telmisartan in the management of abdominal aortic aneurysm. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 29, 2019 Methods / Results Data from preclinical and human studies investigating the efficacy of fenofibrate and telmisartan to limit AAA growth is presented and provides the rationale for three current randomized controlled trials assessing these medications as potential interventions to limit aneurysm growth in AAA patients. Conclusions Fenofibrate and telmisartan have potential as repurposed medications to limit AAA growth and randomized trials for further assessment in AAA patients are ongoing.

Journal: Residual cardiovascular risk of lipid origin. Components and pathophysiological aspects. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 27, 2019 The treatment of atherogenic dyslipidemia is based on weight loss and physical exercise. Regarding pharmacological treatment, we have no evidence of cardiovascular benefit with drugs aimed at lowering triglycerides and HDL-c, fenofibrate seems to be effective in situations of atherogenic dyslipidemia.

Journal: Retinal de novo lipogenesis coordinates neurotrophic signaling to maintain vision. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 24, 2019 Neurotrophic signaling was restored by exogenous cholesterol delivery. These findings implicate de novo lipogenesis in neurotrophin-dependent cell survival by maintaining retinal membrane configuration and lipid composition, and they suggest that ongoing lipogenesis may be required to prevent cell death in many forms of retinopathy.

Preclinical, Journal: Fenofibrate Ameliorates Oxidative Stress-Induced Retinal Microvascular Dysfunction in Diabetic Rats. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 24, 2019 These findings implicate de novo lipogenesis in neurotrophin-dependent cell survival by maintaining retinal membrane configuration and lipid composition, and they suggest that ongoing lipogenesis may be required to prevent cell death in many forms of retinopathy. FA prevents the retinal microvascular dysfunction induced by diabetes, likely by restoring VEGF and P-p65 levels, and possibly by reducing oxidative stress and TXNIP expression.

ADDITIVE BENEFICIAL EFFECTS OF FIBRATES COMBINED WITH OBETICHOLIC ACID IN THE TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH PRIMARY BILIARY CHOLANGITIS AND INADEQUATE RESPONSE TO SECOND-LINE THERAPY (Hynes Convention Center, Hall B) - Oct 15, 2019 - Abstract #AASLD2019AASLD_3159; Patients with PBC treated for at least 12 weeks with, and with no intolerance to, a combination of OCA (5-10 mg/d), fibrates (bezafibrate 400 mg/d or fenofibrate 200 mg/d) and UDCA (13-15 mg/kg/d) because of a Paris-2 inadequate response to one second-line option were included in a multicenter retrospective cohort study. Triple therapy with fibrates, OCA, and UDCA improves biochemical liver tests and increases the rate of ALP normalization in patients with PBC and incomplete response to second-line therapy.

And patients with chronic kidney disease have greater risk in acute kidney injury by fenofibrate.

(Pubmed Central) - Oct 8, 2019 Her pregnancy was complicated by rising triglyceride levels from the second trimester requiring treatment with omega-3 fatty acid and fenofibrate...She was diagnosed with pre-eclampsia and had an emergency cesarean section at 39 weeks delivering a healthy baby. This case adds to the knowledge of the pathophysiology of LCAT deficiency during pregnancy and will be useful in future patient management.

EARLY THERAPEUTIC PLASMA EXCHANGE FOR TREATMENT OF RECURRENT TRIGLYCERIDE-INDUCED PANCREATITIS (Ernest N. Morial Convention Center - Exhibit Hall - Poster Area 2) - Sep 25, 2019 - Abstract #CHEST2019CHEST_2594; Currently, he is managed on fenofibrate 200 mg and rosuvastatin 20 mg daily.In light of this case and drawing from literature, we propose that early TPE not only bears clinical significance in treatment of TGIP, but can also reduce overall costs compared to conventional medical therapy and associated costs, especially in terms of length of stay. This highlights the need for larger-scale studies to compare TPE versus standard medical therapy with direct comparison of mortality, complications, hospital length-of-stay and cost-effectiveness.
