Participant Flow

Participants were recruited from 27 centers in 13 countries around Europe, Asia, South Africa, and North America. A total of 85 participants were screened. Of those,16 were considered screen failures (mainly due to violations of inclusion/exclusion criteria).

Sixty-nine of the 85 participants were eligible and randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either alirocumab 150 mg SC Q2W or matching placebo. Randomization was stratified by LDL apheresis treatment status (on vs off treatment).

All AEs will be recorded from time of informed consent to end of study. Only treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) will be reported. Double-blind TEAE observation period is defined as time from first dose of double-blind study drug to last dose of double-blind study drug +70 days, or up to day before first dose of open-label study drug administration, whichever is earlier. Open-label TEAE observation period is defined as time from first open-label study treatment administration to last open-label study treatment administration +70 days.
