A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Alirocumab in Patients With Hypercholesterolemia Not Adequately Controlled With Non-statin Lipid Modifying Therapy or the Lowest Strength of Statin
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Alirocumab, Placebo, and 3 other interventions for Hypercholesterolemia. Completed, enrolled 163 participants across 30 sites.
Detailed Summary
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) by alirocumab administration as add-on therapy to non-statin lipid modifying therapy (LMT) including diet therapy alone or the lowest strength of statin in comparison with placebo after 12 weeks of treatment in participants with hypercholesterolemia. Secondary Objective: * To evaluate the effect of two treatment regimens of alirocumab on other lipid parameters: apolipoprotein B (Apo-B), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non HDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), lipoprotein (a) (Lp\[a\]), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglyceride (TG), and apolipoprotein A-1 (Apo A-1). * To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab administration. * To evaluate the development of anti-alirocumab antibodies. * To evaluate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of alirocumab administration. * To evaluate the long-term safety in participants receiving open-label alirocumab administration.
